At the hostel, the rooms include a desk and a balcony with a mountain view. Featuring a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at Backpackers Hostel also feature a city view. All rooms have a safety deposit box. My favourite hostel stay in Sri Lanka. The owners are so unbelievably kind and I felt so relaxed and at home here. They make the best breakfast, always so delicious and fresh. The location is also great and easy to find. I wish I could’ve stayed longer!

Located around 48 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden, the hostel with free WiFi is also 49 km away from Horton Plains National Park. The accommodation provides entertainment staff and a shared kitchen. This was the best hostel we’ve stayed at in Sri Lanka! We met so many friends here and continued travelling with them. The staff were wonderful and made it very easy for us to plan activities and socialise with other people. The dorms are clean, beds have curtains, the shower has warm water, the breakfasts were delicious and the hostel’s location is superb! The staff are very friendly and really look out for you! Someone in our group left a camera behind (which we only noticed once they told us) and they organised to transport it to Negombo for us at almost no cost!
