    A little paradise in Negambo

    This is a hidden gem in Negambo. I had doubts when we fist arrived at the gate but once we went inside, it opened up to a little paradise. Hats off to all staff from the reception to restaurant. They made sure our stay was comfortable and even entertained our ad-hoc meal requests. The rooms were clean and spacious. Even the bathrooms were huge. The pool helped us to cool down and keep the kids entertained. The restaurant have a good ala-carte menu with lots of options. We choose to go to a near by 4-star hotel for the lunch buffet one of the days, which was 5 mins away. On the day we were going to the airport, the bell boys helped us to weigh our luggage using the hotel's scale. I would highly recommend Seahorse Hotel to anyone.

    The dinner buffet could be improved, only a half of the buffet area was served for the dinner buffet just having one rice and one noodle option as main dishes. There was a live staion available where you could get pasta/sphagetti but the taste of that was also average. Only had few dessert options as well (couldn't call it a dessert corner). Overall the dinner buffet was not upto satisfactory.

    "Indulging in the breakfast buffet at SeaHorse hotel was an absolute delight! unlike the dinner buffet the spread was extensive, offering a wide variety of both hot and cold options to cater to every palate. The breakfast had both Sri Lankan and Western Cuisines including freshly baked pastries to made-to-order omelets, corn flakes milk rice and many more. Tea/coffee was also available at the buffet. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. The ambiance of the breakfast area (we had it right next to the pool) was inviting, making it the perfect way to start the day.

    Decking is dangerous and needs replacing in full. Sunloungers need cushions, very uncomfortable. Also pool side chairs also uncomfortable. Some soft furnishings dirty.

    Staff very friendly and helpful. Food excellent. Great location.

    Decking around pool dangerous- needs urgent total replacement. Sun loungers extremely uncomfortable- need cushions. Door 1003 needs urgent repair, complained many times, told needs ‘hard shove’ - not good enough.

    Food was excellent as were the cocktails. Staff very attentive.

    Like almost all other hotel guests: - There are no cushions on the sunbeds. (I sat on the lounger briefly after swimming without a towel and the brown colour of the loungers stuck to me). - The wood around the pool urgently needs to be replaced. - Pool towels should be disposed of and new ones bought. Apparently many hotels in the area have an investment backlog. But at least the cushions and replacement of pool towels don't cost a lot. I think it is a massive business mistake to constantly receive poorer ratings because of this.

    - Die Suite war riesig - Preis-Leistungsverhältnis gut. - Ruhige Lage - Tägliches Room cleaning - Etwas veraltete, aber schöne Gestaltung des Hotels

    Although the staff were nice, service was lacking and on all occasions very slow. Walking around the pool was to be taken with care as there were many damaged deck boards that were either split, rotted, or had metal bolt heads sticking up proud, not a place for children, in most places they would be condemned.

    Location was good, relaxed environment and in general was quiet

    The hotel was a little hard to get to (narrow roads that would become flooded with the rain).

    Fantastic little hotel in the heart of Negombo. The staff was very attentive and friendly and offered us a welcome drink and a cold tower at check-in. The breakfast (and all other meals) offered at the hotel was splendid, very varied and delicious!
