A wonderful experience at the iconic Galle Face Hotel, Colombo! A beautiful heritage property overlooking the Indian Ocean, with old-world charm, elegant architecture and a timeless colonial ambience. The location is fantastic, offering stunning ocean views and spectacular sunsets. Warm hospitality, good food and a relaxed atmosphere make the experience even more memorable. A perfect blend of history, elegance and Sri Lankan charm. Definitely worth visiting and experiencing when in Colombo!
One and only beach front hotel in colombo
Always a pleasure to return to this Grande Dame of a hotel. If you wish to stay in a true Heritage place, the Galle Face is your place. Although it is getting old and in need of some serious renovations and refreshers, it has retained its quite unique charm. Its ocean-front location is stunning. Select an ocean view room: they are large and have great views from its vast veranda. The place is always busy - with guests and many just visitors. The main restaurants is ok for a large breakfast buffet. But choose the Fine Dining Restaurant for dinner... more private, good service and excellent cuisine.
I stayed here for one night. Beautiful peaceful property at the sea. The entrance hall is stunning. People super friendly. Incredible Sri Lankan hospitality. I stayed in the old part of the hotel so the rooms did show some wear and tear. Lovely breakfast and chill pool.
Fantastic vibe by the sea! Special thanks to Thilakshani for taking such good care of our table. The service was prompt, friendly, and added so much value to the night. Will definitely be coming back!
Dined at the hotel. A good spread of food. Right next to the beach.
Lovely one night stay Had beautiful dinner in the fine dining room with Natheela looking after us beautifully
At our building project near Rathanapitiya Junction, they initially measured the concrete at 34.5 cubic meters. During the pouring process, they informed us that the volume had increased to 37 cubic meters, so we paid for 37. Later, when our engineers verified the figures with their team, it turned out the actual quantity was only about 35 cubic meters. Essentially, we were charged for 37, but only 35 was used—and now they are refusing to refund the difference. It is extremely disappointing. not recommend company. 👎👎👎
Great old fashioned (but renovated & well maintained) hotel right on the water’s edge! The history and feel of the building is second to none. The breakfast and bar were nice with wide fresh selection. The staff were what made our experience even better, Ms. Peiris, Tharaka, Ivoni, Maduka and Chandana were amazing we even went back on our last night to stay again!
Solid location, spectacular views, splendid food, sunset and sea... Except for a bit old rooms, everything was awesomeee...
