For a star hotel very good. For a longer stay we recommend a bungalow to take. Baden in the sea only conditionally possible. Through the strong surf is the bottom in the banks heavily rough. The hotel we have before and after a round trip for a short halfway point. Very recommendable also since it was close to the airport. Taxi to the airport costs between 10 and 12 Euro. No transfer about agent, way too expensive. read more

For active holiday makers on the most beautiful days of the year the, the hotel is 'peace-full ' totally unsuitable. No leisure time activities, everything must the vacationer itself. A vereinsamter volleyball court and a ping pong table is everything is available. And, only for dinner, unacceptable (and a 1 saxophonist, 1 banjospieler, 1 guitarist-on salary searching) is the evening entertainment. At 22:00 hours is one with the bartender alone. read more

Construction and equipment of Goldi Sands as comparison with luxury hotels. This criterion would be however unfair. GS is upper middle class and in this league really good. Cleanliness and food are really reasonable. Should be emphasized the helpful and always very polite staff! About the location: into. Airport Colombo by car about minutes reachable (1500 Rupee). Day trips you will because of the location practically only a goal per day and then long by car on the way. Tip: not the entire vacation the GS book, but first round trip book and at the end the GS relaxation. ( ... Planning ) tours at the GS suburb be booked. read more

We had only for three nights I booked to shopping trips respectively well as family visits in negombo. But good, because central located middle-class hotel. The building power (beginning July 2012 ) altogether a unfinished impression, as it is still in the renovation is ( open concrete pillars in the restaurant area, as well as concrete terrace). At night partially. Very loud by striking doors ( locals ' guests' especially at weekends) and various current aggregates in the interior area. Room (105 ) always clean with kettle for tea respectively coffee ( not self-evident for 3 star) When Gewitterschauern it ... powerfully by the restaurant, the installed shutters are ineffective and to food is unpleasant. Catering ( half board) completely reasonable with good service without complaints. Clean, goldfarbener sandy beach; unfortunately partly. Many salesmen. read more

Nice hotel with friendly staff. Something to complain about, is the volume of the main street. There were many weddings instead, therefore also noise until far in the night. And the loud slamming of doors at night and in the morning, no relaxing sleep. Had never seen so little sleep on vacation like in this hotel. read more

We were in the hotel very friendly and very warmly welcomed. The room was always clean and well maintained. Every day there were new towels: per person a large and a small. The hotel complex and the beach were very clean and tidy, every day was cleaned and once per week was a gardener. The food was well arranged, there is something for everyone. The choice is large enough. The pool is clean and well maintained. For the swimming pool and the hotel's own Canvas chairs at the beach were free cushions and towels made available. In short: we will ... the hotel Goldi sands soon visit again and will of course also recommend it. read more

We have all ink and were especially very impressed by the food. Unfortunately very lots of pensioners those there their long-term holiday there ( platzhirsche ). Many germans, swiss and dutch. Age 50 +. Nothing for guests the entertainment or tourist bustle. Definitely not suitable for children. But perfect for rest and relaxation. Staff were always friendly and willing to help.

    Super-we certainly cannot complain about. There is each evening a themenanbend from italian, mongolian, Sri Lanka, internet access... But there are always a variety of very good curry but also pasta, fish. Very tasty and varied. Have stayed in much worse for more money to eat. Everything was always very fresh and visually appealing. However nothing for profitrinker (all ink. Offer). Some guests have complained, they only every 10 minutes a new drinks and wine, sparkling wine not it is. Exactly it is not possible liquor and beer concurrently to order. Background: all ink guests have the other guests drinks compensate. The personally not at all affected.

    We were nice to staff, so the staff were also nice to us. Additional towels for the beach we then bvereits after the 3 day automatically get,. In the reason everyone gets addition loungers assigned. Liege reserve is actually nonsense (is but nevertheless -the lifeguard is but also time). I found that very stress free. Room would be cleaned daily - everything is great. Especially nice i found, that the chef with a recipe for a pineapple curry has been made.

    No animation - yippee apart from that everyone had a beach chair (a bit old) under a palm tree or umbrella. Pool we good cleaned daily. Sea go is difficult, if a strong surf prevails. Wi-fi in it lobby subject to a charge. But as soon as one data has, it costs also not further. Small library with german, english and dutch books. There is also an internet station to use.

    Hotel lies directly at the broad beach. From the airport to the hotel about 30 minutes transfer. Around the hotel there are a lot of more restaurants, bars, minisupermärkte. Small trains are in front of the hotel ready. After negombo costs one way 300 rupies (about 2 €). To Colombo 7 hours we have about 25 €with the small trains paid.

We were after a short stay in Dubai for 10 days in Goldi sands negombo. The cons could not be greater. We loved it at the Goldi sands much. The staff were always friendly, there was never a criticism worthy point. The location to the beach and the city is optimal. Excursions with Vincent, we did at the beach learned were totaly class. The hotel complex, as well as the beach were regularly cleaned. The hotel was to 80% with German vacations occupied. Since Sri Lanka very much nature offers and we really great filled in Goldi sands we will ... once again a trip to negombo make read more

After a long journey is negombo because of the proximity to airport ideally, to a planned round trip by Sri Lanka somewhat aklimatisieren to can. The hotel has very big, the Goldi sands finally, we have because of the favorable price selected. For an afternoon with walk on the beach, something around loungers by the pool or the toils to forget, is the Goldi sands very suitable. Due to its proximity to restaurants and shops you can also just a first impression of the country and people get. read more
