We had such a pleasant stay at this property. It was so calm and serene. With a stunning view of the fort. There's a small safe area to swim in the ocean as the rest of the sea is quite dangerous. A nice warm pool that offers the same view and peaceful vibe. The dining option for us was a paid dinner that had authentic Sri Lankan food. It wasn't short of any flavour and they did not cut corners - this is coming from a Sri Lankan. The next time I come from Canada and need to visit Galle. I will stay here again without hesitation

It was pleasant but I was not happy about the cleanliness of the shower. It needed a good clean. It made me feel like everything was just wiped over. The hotel design is beautiful. Buffer is a 7 out of 10.

Great location by the Fort. Lovely pool and pool bar, but shame no other bar in the lobby, that was the only downside along with not much seating area around the bar (plenty of loungers by the pool).

The good - really good location close to the Dutch fort. Great views from the hotel facing the beach and fort. The spa is good The not so good - service is not on par with a property that is marked as five star. The room had no coffee. Called for room service and was told they don't deliver coffee to the room because it will get cold. I have never heard that before. Had to call in the evening to get the room cleaned and after that we had to call again to get the amenities restocked. For the price that was charged for the rooms this is not the level of service expected.

The hotel is located in an idyllic spot - on the sea with the Dutch fort a few minutes away by foot. The rooms are spacious; some with beautiful direct sea views. We were given a free upgrade to one of these rooms, and we enjoyed the views and breezes from our terrace immensely. The bathrooms have Japanese-style toilets, which were a surprising touch. The breakfast was very good, and the staff from the front desk to housekeeping to dining was professional, warm and attentive. Our only complaint were the ants in the bathroom and in the bed. We gave the feedback to management. Given the location, it's likely that sealing up the source of the ants will address the issue. The property also has a very nice and updated gym, large pool, and other services on the property.

The Hotel is very good, with a good location near the Dutch Fort. The hotel has a mix of resort and modern feel. Breakfast is good and has all what you would expect. There are good food options for lunch/dinner in the Fort. Note: while the hotel is on the beach, you won't be able to swim in it. Beaches are around 20 minutes drive.

Fabulous hotel and staff. Generally very good for this price level. Compared to the other two hotels we stayed at this hotel was far more reasonable for food/drink pricing. So you don't feel like you're getting ripped off.

Great location and hotel. Disorganised staff and bad communication. We biked a table at their seafood restaurant which they confirmed twice and when we came there it was not even expected to be open they told us. So as we didn’t want the standard buffet we went to Galle fort.

AC not working and staff refused to change our room even after maintenance came multiple times. Staff was rude and not helpful. Bad location, very dirty all around. The hotel itself looks nice but as soon as you look closely, a lot of things don’t work - AC, jacuzzi, bar, etc.

We loved this place. Spent ten nights in a plunge suite and it was beautiful-huge area, fabulous bathroom, extra comfortable XL bed and superb view out onto ocean, Malith our room attendant took care of our room daily and did a great job. The hotel is great, pool is beautiful and the pool attendant and bar man looked after us. The food from both restaurants is delicious, service across the hotel is brilliant and the team cannot do enough for you. Upeka from Guest Relations was lovely and really took care of us from start to finish. Very close to Galle Fort so lots to do. Highly recommend this hotel without a doubt.

I did not stay at this hotel. I was confined to 1 rated ( safe & secure) hotels as a foreign tourist. I had to stay in Heritance Negombo & Taj Bentota for a total of 13 nights. I also never book a non refundable rate at this time, since covid 19 requires flexibility.

Wonderful view of the fort. Really nice infinity pool and good sunset views. Nice large room with big bath. Lots of space. Friendly welcome. Breakfast was OK - not amazing service and we had to ask a number of times for coffees, water, etc. Compared to the rest of our trip bottled water was pretty expensive here. The omelettes were tasty. Really mixed experience in the spa. My massage was terrible. My partner’s was outstanding. Although they did not charge for mine in the end which was really good of them. Unfortunately, despite the great position of the hotel next to the fort, for 2 days of our 3 day trip, there was horrifically loud deep techno music playing right beside the hotel at some private car sales event. It completely disrupted our stay but on the upside, did mean that we ventured outside the hotel and had a great day in Unawatuna beach and the really cute centre of Galle. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but there could have been some small improvements to make it even better.

This beautifully designed property is ideally located and beautifully equipped. Our room was large and the balcony faced the magnificent sunset. The hotel is quiet and I would say most suitable for couples on honeymoonMy two gripes: There was no full length mirror in the room and the ghastly background music in the restaurant and bar area, It is monotonous and relentless.

We've traveled all over the world and this is among the very best we've ever stayed at. The facility is beautiful and impeccably taken care of. It has been beautifully restored without losing any of its colonial charm. The food is incredible - even the cocktails are creative and excellent! The grounds are awesome, with the pool overlooking the sea, and are beautifully cared for. The Spa is fantastic - we had great massages, at a very reasonable price. The staff is AMAZING - everyone is friendly and accommodating - they even remember you and your unique requirements. We stayed here for 3 nights, went away for a week and returned, and they remembered us and gave us the same room, which we loved. This is also a great value for this quality. It compares favorably in charm and quality to the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai, but is slightly better (and a few years older!), but is MUCH more reasonable, both in the room prices and in the cost of everything you might purchase in the hotel. Also, the location is perfect! We'd strongly recommend the Galle Face!

The hotel is portrayed as being on the beach which it is, however it is a tiny area encircled by rocks. The tiny swimming area is filled with floating garbage. Not an inviting image. If you want beach youll have ti go a few of kilometers south as in back on the main road and a fun ride in a tuck-tuck.The rooms are spacious but you better not be modest as the bathroom is divided from the sleeping area by a glass wall. Although their is an attempt to screen the glass the curtain over the glass is transparent. Dont bring the kids. You can see the old Dutch fort from the hotel property, but again out to the main road and another tuck-tuck ride to get there.The staff is friendly, as are all Sri Lanlkans, but their ability to communicate needs some improvement. And their knowledge of areaattractions, activities, restaurants etc. is lacking. Perhaps some training and development opportunities here.For the money check out other resorts in the general area. DO YOUR HOMEWORK. I have to admit I didnt and I paid the price. Way to much for this one.
