"The pictures are not a true reflection of this property. It has the potential to be a very lovely hotel but it is run down and falling apart. The rooms were dirty especially the bathroom. There wasn't a mosquito net for the bed. Service for breakfast was very slow. The pool looks like it needs a good clean. I couldn't even get into it. "

Top Galle Hotel Reviews

Le Grand Galle

Le Grand Galle

8/10 Good
"It’s a beautiful property in a wonderful location on the sea. The staff are absolutely beautiful and so helpful, nothing is a problem for them. The food is delicious and well presented and good value. However the hotel is undergoing a renovation so it might have been useful to know at time of booking. Also at time of check in nobody said anything. The jackhammering of concrete and belt sanding of wood close to the pool ruined the ambience but on speaking with the staff it was immediately stopped !"
