Le Grand Galle

The Ocean views and calmness of the place in a busy city like Galle was perfect for escaping the heat and crowd when you needed quiet time. The space in our room and facilities exceeded our expectations. It makes you feel like you are on an island by yourself considering all the noise and craziness in the city

The location is stunning with views of the ocean and Galle Fort. Pool and Reception staff were lovely and helpful. The Chef went out of his way to cook us a Sri Lankan vegetarian curry which was wonderful. Some areas looking a little tired and need some maintenance. One downside for us was the Restaurant. We didn’t find it comfortable eating there as the Staff are too officious in their table clearing process. You barely finish… and sometimes haven’t finished your meal … and the plate is being pulled from your table. Not relaxing at all. There are renovations going on nearby so the entrance has been moved to go through the Municipal grounds and a Park. It’s a harrowing experience with rubbish everywhere and lots of young couples “ making out” Not a good impression walking up to the 4/5 star hotel !!!

Excellent location, impressive hotel, great food at Blue Seafood restaurant, welcoming and professional staff.

Le Grand Galle is an extraordinary architectural masterpiece that feels like stepping into a dreamland by the ocean. The soothing sound of the waves and the tranquil silence create a serene atmosphere, immersing you in the vast beauty of the sea. While the courteous staff are always ready to assist, the natural charm of the place alone is enough to captivate you. The food and facilities are truly first-class, adding to the unforgettable experience. I absolutely adore this place and will undoubtedly return.

This was an excellent hotel in a great location. The gardens and pool were very good and the room was generally great. The staff were lovely providing very good and friendly service. The lunch menu and food was really good. The evening buffet was okay but not as brilliant as the rest of the hotel. The one comment would be the bed - there was a very cheap and nasty plastic mattress protector that was really uncomfortable and caused a lot of sweat; whilst the need for mattress protectors are understood there are much, much better ones available.
