I recently stayed at the Nirosha Guest House and had a wonderful experience. The hotel offers incredibly affordable rates per night, making it a great choice for budget-conscious travelers. Despite the low cost, the quality of service and amenities exceeded my expectations. One of the highlights of my stay was the clean swimming pool.

Perfect location if you want to have sea and beach a few meters away. Saman and his family were really friendly and helpful and took good care of us. Prepared delicious breakfast to start the day. Room was very clean, had a roof fan, A/C, and hot water. Beach chairs outside, as well as outside shower to wash the sea salt off 😄

Best host of Sri Lanka easily. He really wanted us to have good time as well as organized a taxi to airport. Was amazing to fall asleep listening sounds of the waves. And to add, pressure of the shower was best we have had. Food too was very tasty!

    I had an excellent stay at this guest house. Its proximity to a major highway interchange made travel easy, yet the surrounding greenery provided a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The place was impeccably clean, and the breakfast was both delicious and affordable. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this guest house for its convenience, cleanliness, tasty breakfast, and warm hospitality. I'll definitely return.

    Love this place, relaxed vibe, clean, comfortable rooms, lovely friendly, quietly attentive staff, good food in a fantastic roof terrace restaurant, lovely spaces to hang out. Our host could not have been more accommodating or kind. The location is perfect to catch sunsets and sea breeze and an easy walk to sights, shops & cafes. Monkeys, iguanas, kingfishers and the hilarious crows hanging out too (not in the property!) Everything you'd want of a guesthouse. Highly recommend

    The room was super nice, quiet, and with the air conditioning always comfortably cool. Ravi, the host, takes very good care of his guests and makes you feel very welcome. Breakfast is served on the balcony with a lovely view and includes a wide variety of fresh fruits, tea, toast and so much more. The guest house is perfectly located as it's close to everything you could want and need. All in all we had a wonderful time and can't recommend the guest house enough.
