"We booked this hotel for our last night in Sri Lanka and it was by far the most rundown hotel we have stayed in.
We booked the most expensive ($260 per night) room that they offered “ beach villa”.
The room was in poor condition and looked nothing like a villa.
Tv didn’t work and bed sheets were old and room was not clean.
Ac blows directly on the bed so you can choose to either be freezing or be super hot.
The hotel is on the beach but far from easy access to anything near by.

"Lovely settings with views out to sea but a bit remote if you like to be near town.
Lots of dogs prowling around coming up off the beach
Good outdoor lawn area and pool.
Our room was clean but pretty old. Probably needs a refit.
Good friendly staff."

A must stay as it is close to the airport after a long fight before your onward journey."
"I really enjoyed how relaxed the Camelot Beach Hotel was. The staff were all very friendly, the room was comfortable and the restaurant had a nice buffet. Of course the beach was lovely, this was a great place to stay at the end of my trip to Sri Lanka - it was nice to have some relaxing walks on the beach prior to me long journey home :)
I would definitely stay here again."

"Arrived late after a long day flying. Check in was as swift as it could be and we were soon in our room. Clean and cool with comfy beds, toiletries available, water, etc. what more could you need for a stay between flights?
Breakfast was delicious, plenty to choose from. But oddly tea was not readily available though they brewed a pot when I asked.
The staff are all so lovely and extremely helpful and friendly.
Laying by the pool is bliss (still here!) and they’ve given us a complimentary late checkout as our flight isn’t until this evening.
Only downside is that no-one was there to meet us at the airport as promised. Our original flight was cancelled, I messaged the hotel with new flight details which was about 3 hrs later than the original, but never got a response so I assume it was not read. It meant after a long day of traveling we had to figure out how to get someone to come get us which frustratingly added another 40 minutes to our already long day.
But overall would highly recommend this airport hotel. "
