Hotels Near Athula Ocean Building in Gampaha

Last June (June 2024), for the third or fourth time, we; my wife and two daughters stayed again at the Covanro. This place is so attractive, in terms of the people, the service, the food and the location so every time we visit Sri Lanka, we keep going back to this fabulous hotel. The people are kind, considerate, respectful and courteous in every sense of the word which I observed a trait that is coming down from the top management. Combined with that is the quality of the service they offer which is higher than expected for a hotel operating in an environment such as in Sri Lanka. For those food lovers, whatever taste you are looking for; Sri Lankan style spicy food, Asian style or Western cuisine, the chefs at the Covanro’s kitchen are capable of addressing your taste buds and, in my experience, they always exceed one’s expectations. We were highly impressed of the high standard of accommodation the Covanro offers with a wide range of rooms to select from which are large and spacious and also, a few types of luxury suites. During our stay we joined many other guests who enjoyed hotel amenities such as the swimming pool, gym and sauna which are available for the guests free of charge, bar facilities included. For any visitor, the Covanro is an excellent introduction to friendly and courteous Sri Lankan hospitality which follows the traditional greeting “Ayubowan”.

This place is excellent for a stay. Especially if coming to or from the international airport. Our welcome was friendly and efficient. The room is excellent, pristine and equipped for all that is needed for our overnight stay. The bed is also very comfortable. Breakfast was brought to the room however I chose to have this at the small table and chairs outside of the room on a small terrace. A perfect place for this. The breakfast is more than adequate, also caters for me as a vegetarian. I asked for a knock at my door to be woken up in case I had slept thrmy alarm and this was given. Such a delightful place to stay. A small courtyard garden with a static table and seats if wanted. Garden lights during the evening make this a pretty area to relax. Tea, coffee and water are available in the room. There was air conditioning and a ceiling fan. The accommodation is located down a side road from the main road. This means it’s nice and quiet. For dinner we decided to walk jumping a few metres to another hotel which served food. However, Faith Hotel do have menus for which to order food which would be delivered if required. Alternatively, we were offered an option of being taken to another place if we wished. We had booked for 2 separate airport transfers as we were travelling on separately to different places. This was organised by and with the owner dropping us all in good time. I noted while at the stay, information regarding trips to places and even tours can be organised. Additionally there is information on an Ayurveda treatments option at a place called Ayurveda Villa which really looked good. This had different packages with a stay including food consultation with an Ayurvedic doctor to decide on the relevant treatments for your package. To use up our rupees we were able to pay part cash, part card which was so convenient. This couple really do offer everything in a stay at Airport Faith Hotel. They are passionate about what they do, are committed to making your stay the best. They have everything available or on hand and can’t do enough to make your stay a happy and good one. I highly recommend a stay here.

Very good hotel, breakfast is invincible, there are many varieties, there are always rich in love to eat, the gym is more cattle, sports lovers can choose, if you have n’t arrived, you will experience everything

We recently visited Tamarind Tree Garden Resort Hotel for our annual office outing, and the experience was outstanding. The resort was beautifully organized, making our group feel welcomed and well-catered to throughout our stay.  The service was excellent—staff were attentive, polite, and made sure that all our needs were met. The resort itself is serene, surrounded by lush greenery, which added a relaxing vibe to the whole event. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, adding to the overall positive atmosphere.  We were impressed by the smooth coordination and attention to detail. Everything from check-in to meals was handled seamlessly, making our office outing truly memorable. We would definitely recommend the Tamarind Tree Garden Resort Hotel for both group events and individual stays!

Ziegler Cottage was our comfortable home for a few days while we visited Negombo. It is easy to reach from the airport, and you can take tuk-tuks or the bus into Negombo. Our room had a sea view and a balcony with sea breezes making airconditioning unnecessary. The waves were too high for us to swim in the sea but the pool made up for it. Food, especially the fruit selection at breakfast, was very good. Staff were responsive and very hard-working. The hotel can organize trips--our all-day outing to a spice plantation, the Ridee Viharaya Temple, and the elephant park was perfect. Everyone goes out of their way to accommodate your needs. The hotel owner drove us to our destination when our ride did not show up. Thank you for a memorable stay! we look forward to returning.

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The food was delicious, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. The room was comfortable and well-equipped with a modern air-conditioning unit. The location, nestled in a peaceful area near the airport, added to the overall convenience of my stay. I highly recommend this place for a great combination of good food, excellent service, and a quiet, airport-close location

Stayed here for a week and I think I really like this hotel. Because I made the decision after comparing Ctrip and ***********. The housekeeper Saman is very nice. When I arrived late at night on the first night, I just needed to contact him and he would drive a Tuktuk to the gate to help me pick up my luggage. They also care about the residents' movements and will remind me to pay attention to safety late at night. The room is very clean, with a kettle and mineral water provided, and the air conditioning is also very good. There is no mention of hot water in the room. In fact, hot water is provided, but you may need to bring your own slippers, toothpaste and toothbrush. Furthermore, this is more like a private garden. Although there are occasional sounds of planes flying over, it is very quiet most of the time. Especially since they have tried to install wifi. Moreover, the hotel has its own kitchen, and you can consult the housekeeper if you want to use it. English communication is more important, but if you have a translator, it probably won’t be a big problem. Recommend this hotel to everyone.

Very good hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel grounds and the rooms were very well maintained. The food in the restaurant was excellent and reasonably priced (lunch and dinner). The free transfer was excellent, journey time about 15 minutes. I will definitely come back. Thank you to the friendly staff.

In fact, this hotel is very comfortable, it is the most comfortable hotel I have visited in Sri Lanka, the environment is also very good. However, this hotel is a seaside, private beach... It is not particularly convenient to go in and go out. If there is no chartered car, the hotel will call the car. Everything else is super good!
