My husband and I spent our last night in Sri Lanka at the Ice Bear. Because it is low season we were the only guests in the house and we got a free upgrade which we much appreciated. The service was great. The room was nice. The shower in the bathroom has an open ceiling and the floor was wet when it rained. To be more eco friendly, the rooms could have screens in the windows and fans so that the AC can be spared. The guesthouse takes only cash as payment. This was a surprise when we checked out but luckily we had just enough cash to cover the bill. We loved the gardens and the quiet atmosphere.

Negombo is a bit of a tourist trap because so close to the airport. So seems that rooms (and some other things) are quite expensive. Icebear Guesthouse has a nice quirky vibe, and a beautiful garden overlooking the ocean. But the room itself was rather shabby, the aircon leaked, the advertised minibar was not there (though they did bring it on request), and on our last day one of the old, heavy windows fell off its hinges as we were opening it. (It needed to be opened to be able to see the view over the garden and the 'sea view' that we were paying for). The restaurant also, while a lovely place to site, had a limited menu and was overpriced for pretty average food. Good points: the garden, helpful staff. Bad points: overpriced, shabby.

Ce petit hôtel (une dizaine de chambres) est idéalement situé sur la plage de Negombo (moins d'une demi heure). Personnel agréable et serviable, joli jardin en bordure de plage, petite carte au restaurant mais tout est bien cuisiné et savoureux. Notre chambre était spacieuse, propre et bien décorée. En revanche, juste 2 serviettes de toilette de couleur, une savonnette et un tapis de bain ayant connu des jours meilleurs étaient à notre disposition. Cela dit, je recommande cet établissement.

The air conditioning for our allocated room had failed. We were offered 2 noisy alternatives off-site. With apologies all round we took our bags without checking in and went to a hotel found by our driver. There the air conditioning in the quiet clean onsite room worked and we checked in there instead.

Great place to stay, right on the beach but handy for other places such as restaurants. Relaxing with friendly and attentive staff.

Garden area very has lots of character. Hotel staff extremely helpful & friendly. Room in need of attention. Bathroom especially. Room quite "run down" & smells of damp. However, bed very comfortable. Shower powerful & hot water. Right on beach. (Although sadly, the beach is quite dirty in places) Would rate this hotel more for backpackers.
