alle beoordelingen » If you are staying in Colombo this is the place to be if you don't want the generic hotel that's in every city. It is still the best location even though there is a refurbished hotel at the other end of Galle face Green with nice rooms but not not the same quality or class by a million miles. Make sure you are in the new wing as the old wing is now very tired although it was the best a few years back. I think it is being refurbished and then it will be the better wing as the rooms are huge. The Galle Face is a Beautiful throw - back to the Colonial days right in the centre of Colombo which is a city with a lot of new investment. You can find chic modern fancy Hotels nearby but in my view you'd be missing something of the fundamental charm of the city if you FAIL to stay at Galle Face. They are undergoing renovation but don't let that put you off - it is being well managed and really doesn't detract from the peace and tranquility of your stay. Great location, and the gorgeous suite we were given AFTER complaining about the original room was beautiful with a fantastic view. The large salt water pool by the sea and garden area are a haven, and the old world ambience of the hotel compensates a bit for the fact that it's seen better days & is a bit shabby. We loved the old colonial style of the hotel. On arrival we were upgraded to a lovely, big room with a seaview anda hottub on the balcony. The hot tub was great fun, if rather smelly! We loved the swimming pool with chairs overlooking the sea. We didn't use the spa as only there for one night but it looked amazing. Loved the Galle Face! Brilliant location with spectacular views. Our room was large, clean, comfortable and had an amazing view. The breakfast buffet was superb and great value if included in the room price. The pool was great and the bar facilities fantastic! Would definitely recommend a stay at the Galle Face!. Our 1 night at Galle Face Hotel was out bit of luxury for the start of our adventure in Sri Lanka - The children and I found the history associated with the hotel very interesting and we spent hours exploring the nooks and crannies within the building especially the older part of the original building. Fantastic hotel, the restaurant is great - especially the curry (though the wine is expensive!) great staff, and nice big rooms. Pool right by the sea is very nice too. Some people may comment that half the hotel is under renovation but you cannot hear a thing and it didn't disrupt our stay at all. The building is charmingly old and beautiful with it feeling like you have stepped into a different time but with the comfort of the modern times. Staff are efficient charming and very helpful. This is not a modern luxury but clinically hotel but one that totally charms you with its grace. We stayed just one night ( because of cost) to experience the ambience of this famous old hotel. The best thing of course is the loaction - overlooking the ocean and the although an old hotel the room we had had been refurbished with modern amenities. Grand ,iconic colonial old world splendour. Friendly staff and every possible facility available.Handy central location and great views.Spacious rooms, and seems good value to me considering what other more modern hotels charge. Altogether fantastic!. It's not an Hotel, it'a Monument..."the oldest hotel west of Suez"... Anyway, we were upgraded to a "Royal suite" with a view on the garden and the Indian Ocean! Everything in the gfh is so sweet (dinner, bkfast, garden, pool...). The perfect stay!. Pool, relaxed space, old style, history of building, comfortable rooms, good food and options of where to eat within Galle Face, good staff and breakfast options. Price was reasonable. Close to Colombo shopping and airport. Grand colonial hotel with lots of character. Wonderful location facing the Indian Ocean. Could not have a better place for 'sundowners' than the terrace of the hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast buffet.Location is good. You can see Indian Ocean. Room is big.Food is very good, price is reasonable. Staffs always smile. I feel very comfortable at this hotel. I will stay at this hotel in future. . the only place in colombo that have a "Customer Value" and really good one, this is my 2nd visit to the hotel and dentally my 3rd visit i will check in again. 1. Location. 2. Facilities. 3. Decor 4. Breakfast selection 5. Some of the staff's approach of customer service. Felt to be natural and not induced. we stayed in the older classic wing...great room with character overlooking the green. great pool and delightful garden terrace overlooking ocean. We enjoyed being pampered. We loved the location right on the waters edge. Friendly staff. Cleanliness and the food for breakfast was fantastic. Very large, comfortable room. Wonderful old colonial building on the sea. Very nice restaurant and generally pleasant and helpful staff. Just about everything -- location, food, views, service, staff, ambience, the room, the sound of the waves crashing at night. The atmosphere and colonial style. it was undisturbed grandeur from a time gone by. Loved eating outside looking at the sea. This hotel has the location, history and atmosphere, loved the bar area in particular. Also found it to be clean. Location was terrific- great pool area Breakfast was good We got upgrade and room (with Balcony) was outstanding. beautiful location, fantastic food, bedroom comfortable, very friendly staff and manager. we will come again. Loved the heritage, colonial feel of the building. Service was excellent and the room was beautiful. Lovely view of the seaface- we reached on a rainy day where the sea was raging- awesome experience. Great olde world charm. Very friendly staff and superb view from suite at top of Regency Wing. The history to this hotel, the old features, the location, sunsets, food- all fabulous. Excellent service and great location fabulous pool and good gym good value bar menu. The hotel had a great view of the ocean, the staff were super friendly and helpful. Excellent service, the lobby manager Kamal Fernando was particularly helpful. It is old, but it has style. Everything is from wood, what we liked. Great atmosphere of Colonial times, amazing location facing the see. Staff were very professional. Breakfast was very well done, 5 star. Loved the colonial decor, the staff are extremely friendly with me. Large room Great location Colonial feel Restaurant by the sea. just about everything excellent staff we had a great time. Great old colonial grand hotel, excellent location. Location, atmosphere, outside eating and bar areas. Its absolutely gorgeous hotel, i liked eveything. loved the location and restaurant service. The location and the area to eat and drink. The breakfast The friendly atmosphere. Excellent old school colonial hotel!. Very Friendly staff. Food was good. The colonial feel. Decor is good. It is outlooking a nice beach.. Great location and ambience. Nice and historic place. - Half of the hotel is in a renovating process. Could hear some noise and the building workers at the side, but not a big problem for me since I probably got a reasonable cheap stay because of that. - Food and drinks in the bar is overpriced (as I guess is part of the deal of staying in a hotel like this). - Simple food in the bar, but nice taste. Curry was lovely (but smaller portions and less side dishes that you would get if you order curry in a ordinary Sri Lankan restaurant). Nothing in the new wing at all. I actually love the old wing but the rooms need some attention now although the charm is still there. Of course they would be fantastic again with just a little attention which I think is happening. The hotel put a little note in the rooms warning you to watch out for Bogus Employees 'off duty' who approach you outside the hotel. We did meet one these guys, a very polished con-man, so take note of the warning and don't be taken in. Arriving late at night, we were given a room at the back of the hotel with a view of the roof and chimneys which was truly gruesome. We complained the next morning and were given a much nicer room with a lovely view. The restaurant buffet has good food with a lot of choice but not enough for vegetarians. Hot tub was quite smelly and the bath looked like it needed another clean, although the shower was perfect. Reception staff were lovely but the bar staff seemed a bit jaded. Nothing. Our stay was good but probably would not stay for more than 1 day because of cost and because we are not fans of large hotels. My only tiny criticism was that the computer in the business centre was a bit slow with the internet. For the price, the rooms are a bit small. the internet fees is a little high and not all the area's are covered . Some of the staff were the most unhelpful we encountered during our stay in Sri Lanka whilst others were first class. The former were a bit disappointing in a hotel of this standing. Also and unusually, there was no welcome soft drink. Would have been very welcome after a longish journey in the heat. as with all hotels we visited in sri lanka there was no info about hotel facilities in the room....strnage..... I have yet to sort this out with hotel but it looks like I have been charged twice. Possibly a clerical error??. A little hard to get service eg 15 mins before bar closed staff were reluctant to take an order and slow to deliver it. Otherwise service was good. A large part of building is closed for refurbishment but, that said, the section that remains open is lovely and well separated from the ongoing work. No Sri Lankan food in their restaurant! Only rather dodgy French? Food. Same at breakfast, only one Sri Lankan option but was not vegetarian. I also paid for breakfast but was not allowed to eat it in the room so had to pay twice for it!. Most staff unfriendly and service was outdated. No free Wifi anywhere in hotel. Wear and tear of the carpets in the hallways - slightly run down feel - took away formthe luxury of the place. The buffet foods in the evening were not of the highest standard. The rooms are outdated, and need renovation. Not applicable. Some noise from ongoing refurbishment. Coffee was brutal but this is not unique to this hotel. I find as a solo traveler that the staff in most hotels tries to give me the worst room , and of course I go through the routine of getting a view room as promised. My room was excellent but no view. I complained but told they were overbooked. If I was with the Wife it would have been a different story. Great hotel and will be staying there again. Thanks. An employee gave me an incorrect indication on a tour out of the city. Overpriced. rooms we stayed in old wing were a little tired enamel off bath could do with a sympathetic makeover would nt take much for a vast improvement. Too many tourists, expensive. Pool area too small, had to wait 2 hours for a sun bed with only 30 minutes left to enjoy it. Breakfast could have better pastry offerings. The bathroom as it smelt and felt dirty. In the monsoon there is no possibility of swimming in the sea. Service quality should be improved. Training of staff a must. Unfortunately it was under construction at the time of my visit. Not impressed when staying a high end hotel such as this you have to pay for a Wifi connection. NOT FREE WI-FI!! This is not a modern hotel for doing business from.
