Very Good
If you are traveling on a budget this little hotel is perfect. Its only 30 minutes by car to the capital Columbo and 30 minutes to the airport. The staff are super helpful and friendly. The food is plentiful and lovely. The beds were comfortable and the AC was very much welcomed in the hot days! Marcus, the pool attendant, was always helpful and made sure we had everything we needed, nothing was too much trouble.

Its a beautiful hotel, clean rooms, nice pool, good food, nice atmosphere and excellent service. The service at Saprin is something extra. The manager Bernard, and the hotel team, helped us with everything we needed, both during and after our visit.
Everything was great!

This is a lovely hotel, very modern with welcoming staff. It is much nicer than your average close to the airport, the hotel. We could have happily stayed several nights. We were late for breakfast and the lovely staff accommodated this without a murmur and gave us fruit, omelette, coffee and toast - perfect. The room was a good size, very nice bathroom and comfy bed. The swimming pool is superb and appeared spotless.
Its really worth booking a sea view room. We arrived late and only rooms facing the busy road were still available. This meant quite a lot of traffic noise but we got it for a bargain price so really could not complain.

Sanju at the reception was incredible: happy to help, smiling and accommodating. The property is secured 24/7, the gate to the beach is locked (which is important for a solo female traveller).
There is not even 1 hairdryer in the whole hotel!

Fair
Very friendly staff
But unfortunately we have to be critical in this review. We stayed 4 days in this hotel and everyday there were local people (ab)using the pool with loud music, a lot of alcohol and even vomiting. There is a beach, but not safe to swim.

The staff were all so friendly and couldn't do enough to help. Marcos and Bernard went out of their way with advice on any subject. Pool area is lovely. Had a meal there on our last night and Bernard set us a table in the garden , wonderful as was the food, would definitely recommend. Only drawback is the distance from colombo city centre although 40 minutes away was only 4 when you could book a taxi with pickme. On the occasions when a taxi wasn't available Bernard got us a tuk tuk in minutes which was a nice experience in itself. Thanks to all the staff at Saprin Beach for making our first stop in Sri Lanka lovely.
Basically only the distance from colombo city centre which can't be helped.

Great room and very friendly helpful staff. Lovely clean swimming pool.
Restaurant was strangely deserted and lacking in atmosphere. Seems guests more likely to eat in their rooms. Some of the food was lovely but not all to our taste. Location was great for us because we needed somewhere near Colombo at short notice but beach too rocky for swimming

Very friendly helpful staff especially Bernard the manager very obliging and Marcus the pool attendant was great too.
Food was great, we ate in most days as there weren't many other options closer.
The hotel was close to the airport, 30min taxi journey.
Thanks for a brief enjoyable stay!
A bit disappointed that the private beach area was approx 2x4m and not usable. Also access to the beach was a challenge. The sea was not safe to enter.
The sun loungers were in dire need of repair or better replacement.

Location a bit far from Colombo and airport, it is right in the middle
Everything is a bit old

Lovely resort , cleanliness is very nice. Owner is very supportive. Breakfast is also good but options can be increased
It's beachside but you cannot enjoy the beach. Rooms are good but for the cost we paid not worth.

The second morning we were given Sri-Lankan breakfast since we asked for it. That was nice. The pool is well maintained by Marcus, the only real friendly chap in the hotel.
arriving at 5am after a 36 hours journey we were asked to pay the accommodation immediately, before even seeing the room. The room itself was clean enough, the bed linen were clean. But on the floor was hair of previous occupants. Bathroom was clean. The building itself has seen better times. All iron parts are rusting away and the wooden bridge (advertised on the photos) is decaying and not usable.
Thank you for your information!
