Great value for money! It's close to the airport and the owner has many secret locations to go to which are perfect and less costly to be in. The airport transfer is also comparatively cheaper and rooms are very clean. Definitely worth staying in this place for a few days and explore the area here.

Great hostel, big dorm beds, clean bathrooms, super helpful and happy staff, great restaurant although booked out most nights, so you need to book if you want a table. Close to the beach, although not the nicest beach. Perfect stay for being close-ish to the airport

Great location very close to the airport. Management and staff were very friendly, informative and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was simple but tasty. Being on the lagoon meant you had a lovely cool breeze blowing, enough to tone down the muggy heat.

All hostels in Negombo

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
