Rooms were really good but, the food wasn't! The buffets for lunch and dinner are much more similar with minimum varieties! The lift wasn't working and When we came to the room there were no towels in the room and in addition there were no towels and their staff gave us a very unpleasant experience 🥴and I request you to think twice before going to this accommodation. 👎

What is my least favorite hotel. It started out poorly when there was someone on the beach with a stage and microphone, making a lot of noise for some kind of event right below my room later that evening the birds flew onto the power wires and were very noisy for a while. The beach it was OK they were people out there snorkeling on the reef I did not do it. The rooms were average

Very good experience here! I came in last minute when my Airbnb host canceled on me and they were about to put me in one of their deluxe rooms with an ocean view at a very reasonable price! I ended up staying two nights and I honestly didn't want to leave! I never tried the breakfast to be honest, so no commentary on that. However, the pool and facilities were clean. The only downside is the elevator is getting foxed at the moment. Literally located right in front of the beach!

Arrived here excited to be staying on the water. Booked a Premium Ocean Suite only thing it had going for it was the ocean view. Left here with a bad taste and wouldn't stay here again. One of the worst experiences I've had. Anyone thinking of coming and staying here dont!! I've seen slums in better condition. Firstly on arrival was welcomed with a drink but from there it was all downhill and downhill quick. This is the first hotel out of dozens I've stayed that I have checked out early. Here's why. Get up to my room aircond hardly cools down my room especially the bathroom. Felt about 50 degrees celsius. Next it had dirty mold ridden walls including a patch that looked like it had been there for months if not years! The fridge wasn't turned on and once again had stains and looked like it was from a 1970s caravan. Staff were atrocious. Service was next to none. If you can call it service from them. Examples first night there was a blackout just before I walked into hotel after dinner, wasn't offered a torch/candle etc. I also asked about nearby laundry. They said they could do it onsite. I wasn't taking that risk. When I asked the question again. The reply It's on the streets. Great service. Last thing that got my back up was a tuk tuk driver parked out the front of the hotel asked for 4.5x the actual rate to take me to Galle. I used Pick Me app instead. The same guy from checkout the next day said "Oh Pick Me doesn't work here". Siding with the tuk tuk driver and trying to rip off a foreign tourist. Little did he know I had pick me booked and went with for under a quarter of that price. But hey Pick Me didn't work there lol. On checkout after telling them why I was leaving a day early. Reply about mold was "Sorry we don't check every room". Are you serious? Not like it's a 150 plus room resort. Rooms do not look like pics on here please see mine for actual. On paying at checkout they charged me 6 percent higher than actual exchange rate even though I paid in Rupees. Avoid and stay elsewhere in Hikkaduwa!

Have mixed feelings about this palce. The staff was friendly and the food was worth the price. Room had AC and a TV with limited channels. Room looked old and cleanness can be improved. There is a pool but need to go through main lobby to access the pool. Good place if you're looking for a budget place to crash in but not good if you're looking for a place to enjoy your holiday.

Rooms are great, new and comfortable, well maintained. Food ala carte has good taste but the breakfast buffet is terrible. Staff is not good as well. Front office manager lied when we wanted to book through Agoda. He said those rooms put on agoda is not available and under renovation which was a total lie. When we eventually went there that was not so! So dont trust what they say!! And its a great location, right on Hikkaduwa marine park area on the beach

situated at the heart of the town area .... great service and affordable room prices .... so many travellers stay for travelling....

The hotel is nice. Lovely comfortable rooms, good access to the sea. In my view can be a little more disable friendly. Great and helpful staff special mention Mr. Chamila, Anthony, Suranga and Supine. Fantastic breakfast buffet lunch and dinner choices can improve

The hotel is in a wonderful location. However it’s very run down and maintained very poorly. We had taken 3 rooms and all the rooms had some challenges- the kettle was not functioning in two rooms, the toilet was leaking in one, no blankets etc. The lifts were under maintenance and to add on to it they didn’t have a generator back up . This was the most frustrating part as the city faced a 5 hour blackout and the whole hotel plunged into darkness. We had to use our phone batteries for lights and when we saw that there was no respite from this situation, we checked out a day prior.

Very Bad service and not valuable for price. Room aslo not cleanered pest was there. If i taken water more that also charged in FB basis. They provide only small water bottle for room. Food are not good.

Hikkaduwa Beach Hotel is a lovely facility with a lot to offer at a great price! From what I could see the hotel has some newly renovated areas and was undergoing more renovations during our stay so I'm excited that it will probably be better for the next time we head back! I've added a detailed review below and a few notes on areas of improvements. Rooms: We stayed in the Ocean View Premium Suite and that view truly is worth it. Stunning views in both the room AND the bathroom! The room was beautiful, spacious, clean, and the AC and fan both worked well. Area for improvement: - the elevator is currently not working but I'm told that it was checked and they're currently waiting on parts. Their staff happily took our bags up to our room and I didn't mind the extra steps as I was lounging on the beach or by the pool the entire time anyways. Food: The breakfast buffet is good and comes with an egg station! The buffet doesn't have the most options but whatever is available is tasty. More than the buffet, you should order from their A la Carte menu - incredible. We ordered for both breakfast and had a full dinner there as well and loved every item we chose. You MUST order the Devilled Jumbo Prawn - I had it 3 times during my stay and it was consistently delicious - every single person in our group needed a bite! You cannot leave here without trying this! What's a nice way of asking their chef for the recipe? Haha Area for improvement: - quality of food is good - more options and maybe another live station would be great! Beach/Pool: For those with children and seniors in their group, you will very much appreciate the intimate size of the property and that everything is steps away from each other. Sometimes at other resorts getting from the hotel to the pool to the beach is such a mission that you skip one part altogether but the layout is ideal if you're looking to hit all parts - the beach is literally 15 steps outside of the back end of their lobby! I actually counted! The beach is incredibly stunning with sandy shores and zero seaweed in sight. The water is a gorgeous teal with a perfect amount of wave. Area for improvement: - the pool area could use a bit of a paint facelift but if you're able to get your head around that the pool itself is great and my family spent a lot of time there. Some extra/new chairs and loungers would also help! Activities/Entertainment: They had quite a few options available in the short 3 day stay that we had there. During that time, they had: - a dance party - a magic show - a cooking class - live calypso music - high tea They also have other activities like kite flying, snorkelling, surfing etc. They also opened up a shisha bar at their location the day that we left! So much to do/ so little time! You can also talk to management about arranging any sort of transportation/tours/activities - we did a day tour in Galle with a River Safari - all of it was set up through the hotel including the vehicle/driver/tour guide/entrance fees! Area for improvement: I don't know if I have one for this - they had more options available than what I could take them up on! Maybe after my next trip I will go through the roster and have more suggestions. Staff/Service: One of the highlights of my stay was the incredible service - the entire staff greets you with a smile and genuinely care about serving their guests. The owner came and spoke with us as well as many of the managers and everyone was so friendly and kind while offering great suggestions about what to do and ensuring we had everything we needed. Area for improvement: honestly, none - their staff went above and beyond! I hate when businesses don't get service done right because it's something that could completely change the client's experience and it's FREE. At Hikkaduwa Beach Hotel, they treated my family so well!

Nice hotel.We love it because staff members are very friendly. Clean room and delicious food available. We enjoyed. Thank you .

Rooms are very nice decorated, lots of shelves and space for your stuff, bathroom was freshly renovated, the only negative things I have to say is that pillows are very flat and window does not have blackout so at 7 am the room is very bright already. Common areas are not as nice as the rooms. The staff is super friendly, they speak good English and Razaaq remembered our names and that's a nice detail. Food and taxis in the hotel are overpriced.

A hidden gem in Hikkaduwa. The hotel has a beautiful view of the reef and the ocean from each of the room. Clean and beautiful rooms. Well worth a stay if you are visiting Hikkaduwa. The glass bottom coral watching boat rides are just about a 3 minute walk along the beach. They also have snorkeling and other water activities just beside the hotel along the beach. Food at the hotel was also incredibly good. Will definitely visit again. Overall it was a wonderful stay. This hotel is a must visit. It was very peaceful and quiet. The hotel manager is extra ordinary, he ensures that every guest has a pleasant stay and is very knowledgable about the actvities and things to do in the surrounding area. He will makes sure your stay will be well worth it. It is definitely a hotel to visit.

Stayed in this hotel for a night before leaving srilanka. Surprisingly it was quite good from the inside with views of the ocean as it's a Beachfront hotel. The pool boats a swimming pool as well. The rooms were clean and the toilets were quite decent. The hotel might seem dodgy from the outside but it's well done from the inside.

Lovely hotel to spend as the staff is really supportive and food is just great. They make the food so fresh and it is so tasty. Rooms are great as they are spacious with private balcony facing the beach and newly renovated. So valuable for the money spent. Just heart of the famous Hikkaduwa beach that you will never enough of it. Snorkeling is the best. Stay with family and friends and you will never regret the money and time spent there.

Called to the hotel 5 Times, everytime they cut the phone with out answering. Really Disappointed.

Best place to spend your vacation in Hikkaduwa. Everything is amazing in this place and the beach view is the best part of this place.

It has a beautiful view. The best service is provided, everything is clear..... There is a number 1 manager.

It is with great pleasure I write this rewiew about the staff of this hotel. The manager Mr. Chamila Silva was so helpful and his courteous service made our stay memorable .The food was very tasty and the rooms very clean,nice and comfortable. We have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to any visitors! I wish the manager and his staff every success for a bright future! Gamini de Silva &party

How can a place so awful be a part of such a beautiful city? As soon as we pulled up outside and looked at the dirty, holey curtains hanging like rags behind the stinking glass of the rotting windows we should have turned and run. The room was tiny and stank, as did the rest of the building. It was a combination cockroaches,ants and rats the local petting farm and a pair of Zoo Keepers’ wellies. The breakfast was buffet , it was so horrible. No Proper breakfast meal, I honestly not recommending to anyone.

The staff is friendly, and that's it. Breakfast was fine. But the hotel is just meh.... Tables, chairs aren't stable. One wardrobe door cant close while another door is stuck. Sofa beds without legs.We had 3 rooms and I noticed these things in every room.btw only one room had a sofa bed properly. There's a massive improvement has to be done to the hotel. There are lot of broken places and damaged parts. Its more like a guest house.We had a super deluxe kinda room set and it suppose to have a sea view/beach view. Instead we only had a coconut tree view.

Called to the hotel 5 Times, everytime they cut the phone with out answering. Really Disappointed.

Rooms were really good but, the food wasn't! The buffets for lunch and dinner are much more similar with minimum varieties! The lift wasn't working and the hotel was being renovated at the time we were there and the experience was really awful! They could have renovated first and open up for people!

Just come back from a two night stay in Hikkaduwa beach hotel , have to say the staff at this hotel were all gold standard! Every member of staff was so welcoming and friendly, you could tell they worked together as a team. They went to great lengths to make me a sandwich out of normal food serving times when they knew I was diabetic. Can’t praise them highly enough. We’ll definitely be back.
