The owners were very helpful. Great location. Useful for the first or last night before leaving the country. The only thing I would improve is to put a mosquito net on the windows. My room didn't have it so I had to keep the window closed, and being the room very small, it was very hot even if there was a fan.

Calm place to lay down and relax

My stay at Hotel Rani Inn was very good. It is a calm place to lay down and relax. The locale is away from the busy city life and a wonderful place to have a nice beach walk.

Good place with wonderful owners

We were in contact with Rani Inn before we arrived in Sri Lanka to arrange airport pickup. Throughout our stay (3 nights) the owners were very helpful and welcoming. We had lovely breakfast, the room was clean and a comfortable bed. We are going back for a night more before we leave SL. Can highly recommend this place.

親切なスタッフのいるホテル

部屋は殺風景で水シャワーだったけど、部屋やバスルームの掃除は行き届いている。 タクシー代の両替がなかったら、立て替えてくれて親切だった

ビーチすぐ

値段相応のまずまずのホテルだと思います。道を渡ってすぐのところにビーチがあります。通された部屋は、少し風通しが悪く蒸し暑かったですが、大きな問題てはなかったと思います。

Tres bon accueil, prix très intéressant. Propre

Hotel simple mais propre et accueil souriant. Prix intéressant et authenticité. Nous y retournerions. A l'écart des "chemins" trop touristiques, ce qui nous convient très bien. Bien situé par contre au centre de negombo à quelques pas de la plage.
