go for other hotel.
very bad experience in this hotel. we took 6 rooms. the pic on the website was taken long ago. there is no swimming at the side. you have to walk to the next hotel which they are in the same management. pro: there is a manager to help (anyway, one man show). breakfast - buffet type, quit a varieties to choose. con: this hotel is old, need to be renovated. air cond - some rooms not cold at all, imaging you are in the hot weather country. lot of mosquitoes, there is an electrcal repellent but it does work well. the mosquitoes flying everywhere. (request for soray but they dont have). no kettle to boil hot water, get from the manage but the plug doesnt suit the room's socket.water pressure was low even you are at the ground floor.

Awful place
We got there and they had no record of our booking. Very dirty rooms and corridors- full of mould- dirty tray with food and empty cups left in corridor for at least 3 days- full of flies and ants and was still there when we left. Tv and toilet not working. Sister hotel Golden star where we had breakfast was much nicer with nice staff in restaraunt- but even here food left open to flies. The pool is small but the beach is quite nice but currently next to a construction site. This is a good place for people on a budget and don't mind where they are staying or the conditions of the rooms. This is a more a guest house than a hotel.

Average
Don's Beach Hotel advertises as having a pool and lovely rooms. The rooms were not as pictured and the hotel (Golden Star) next door had the pool, which we were allowed to use. The airconditioning was very noisy, ineffective and dripped water onto electric plug sockets.

The cockroach beach hotel 3 star
The hotel looked shady and extremely dirty with a lot of mosquitoes around. Our room had a huge cockroach and when called at the reception no answer. No duvets were provided only duvet covers. The guests in the to next door were vey noisy starting at 12.30 till 3 am And that was the only time we were in the hotel. They were hooligans yelling at the top of their voice and throwing some wooden stuff around like some one was lifting the planks of a wooden bed. Breakfast was promised and never given to us!!! We called the reception 7 times to report problems but no answer. Tje bathroom was rusted and towels were dirty. The most horrible hotel we've been at they need the 3 star to be stripped off form their recognition unless until they improve

Close to beach
Would of rated the hotel a lot less if we were unable to use the facilities of the neighbouring hotel, golden star. dons beach said it had a pool but it doesn't it's next door! Pool is very nice though! The pool man was very friendly and we fell in love with the little kitten wondering around there! Bad points of dons beach were double bed was two single beds pushed together and a bad smell lingering around the outside of the hotel. Ok for a few nights, basic. side, had a TV :)

Vi kom hjem til hotellet etter en kveld ute til stengt port, og måtte klatre gjennom nabohotellet for å komme oss inn. Var heller ikke gratis frokost som det stod det skulle være. Veldig dårlig informasjon, vann var borte hele dagen

設備が良い
ゴールデンスターホリディリゾートとオーナーが同一でプールや朝食のレストランもゴールデンスターのものを使用する。部屋のクラスはゴールデンスターホリディリゾートよりは低いのだろうが他のホテルと比べると管理はしっかりしている。

Pessimo hotel
Più che un hotel è una guesthouse per turismo locale. Letti scomodi e rotti. Mobilio antiquato. Formiche specialmente nei bagni. WI FI pessimo. Si appoggia ad un hotel accanto per tutto.

Средне
Фото отеля конечно похожи на действительность,но в целом все не так шикарно. Отель для неприхотливых. Много комаров,хотя фумигатор ставят (мы ещё спирали покупали). Комары потопы что снизу входной двери щель,в окнах щели (занавески задернуты все время т.к. Окна не чистые мягко скажем) и двери от дождей рассыпаются. Ручки у дверей со стороны балконов почти отсутствуют,рассыпались от старости или влаги. Так в общем нормально если там сутками не сидишь. Фото ресторана,бассейна и пляжа это фото отеля рядом Голд стар бич отель

Dons beach hotel is from the outside a messy, uncosy hotel. But the oceaan closeby, the swimmingpool and the great breakfast are great. The facilities are from the sister hotel.

Hotel très décevant.
Hotel très décevant, heureusement nous y avons passé q'une seule nuit, dès notre arrivée dans la chambre mauvaises odeurs et un gros cafard pour nous souhaité la bien venue chambre infestée de moustique, salle de bain vétuste et sale. Petit déjeuner pas bon du tout avec peu de choix sauf pour les bébêtes qui elles se régalées. le seule point positif de cet hôtel est la piscine de l’hôtel d'à coté accessible.

Kohtalainen
Kuvaukset hotellista eivät vastaa todellisuutta. Illalla kun saavuimme hotelliin olimme aivan ihmeissään koska kuvausten perusteella siellä piti olla ihan mukavan oloinen hotelli.Pimeä kuja johti hotellille jo se alkoi arveluttaa mitä tuleman pitää. Huone oli kohtalainen parhaat vuotensa jo aikaa sitten nähnyt. Aamulla selvisi,että aamiainen saadaan toisessa hotellissa seka uima-allas ja ranta-alue tuoleineen sijaitsee siellä. Tämä oli ainut plussa tässä majapaikassa koska aamiainen oli todella runsas ja allas-alue ja ranta hyvä.

Til nabohotellet for å spise og bade, bor i brakke
Etter å ha tidligere bodd i Negombo kjenner jeg personlig området, og beach side er koselig som bare det. Turister har sitt vanlige å stri med om man ikke snakker språket, som selgere på stranda mm. Sri Lanka er jo Perlen i Asia, og vel fortjent. Nydelig sted, nydelig land og herlige folk.
