Reviews
I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, with stunning views of the ocean and a pool to relax by. The open-air verandah by the seaside was a fantastic spot to enjoy a drink while watching the beautiful sunset. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. The hotel facilities were top-notch, including a saltwater pool and lovely cabanas by the sea. The hotel's proximity to the new One Galle Face Mall and other nearby hotels made it convenient for dining options. The staff's attention to detail and excellent customer care added to the overall exceptional experience.
Nothing not to love.
Cleanliness and hotel facilities were top-notch.
The hotel's beachfront bar provided a stunning view of the ocean.
The location was perfect, right next to Galle Face Green for enjoyable evening walks.
The staff, particularly Shehan, provided impeccable service.
Didn't dislike anything about the property.
The hotel was clean and had excellent facilities. The location was perfect, close to the old Dutch hospital development in the city. The staff were willing to help with everything, including arranging transportation. Special thanks to Keeth, a housekeeper, for his professionalism. The breakfast was delicious.
Nothing, no complaints at all.
