2/10 Poor

When we arrived the hotel was closed. We were given no notice. We were concerned as we had already paid for the hotel. A security guard directed us their sister hotel who honoured our booking which was great but not the experience we expected. I would say the pictures must have also been misleading given it was closed for renovation. The sister hotel was in a great location but very old and rooms not great. Would have preferred to be told and have booked elsewhere.

Think twice when booking this hotel
I understand this is a very old hotel but need to keep up to the standards. When i checked in, there was only one towel in the bathroom and few hours later i managed to get two additional towles. The food was good.

Booked on Wotif.com. Catered for my family. FREE welcoming drink was nice in the hot weather. Waited for our extra bed to be put in the room as they mustn't have received my message, but I'd only sent it about an hour prior to our arrival. Bags were carried to our spacious, clean room with a balcony & city view. Bathroom was spacious, clean, had enough good quality towels for all of us with good hot running water for all of us. My only issue was upon checkout they handed me a bill for room payment even though I'd paid online with wotif.com like i have in 50 countries. After we showed them our booking in conjunction with bank withdrawal & they made a few phone calls to the company it was sorted. Well they said they'd call if any issues. We did have our driver (we've had for 5days) with us communicating so I'm sure that helped.

We just finished a two week holiday in Sri Lanka and this was one of our least favorite hotels. Breakfast was not good - the rooms and bathrooms are very dated and could use an upgrade. Staff are friendly.

It’s a beautiful colonial building and it’s well situated, it requires some major renovation in the way the Galle Gace hotel has been renovated to make it more appealing

Disappointing Experience
Poor management skills and lack of knowledge and skill of staff accounted for poor service levels. The choices and service levels at meal times (buffets) , overall maintenance of the property and cleanliness were poor .

The customer service of the front office and housekeeping manager provided very good service. The front office served strawberry guavas juice to my friends who are not staying in the same hotel for free. That’s really impressed me. Although the hotel facilities are not up to our expectations but the Housekeeping Manager was very polite to response to our feedback and action on it asap. We were given a upgraded service to suite room at level 3 from level 1 due to the mosquitoes issue. He even feedback to the management on the changes we suggested and they are looking into it to change for better facilities. Hope next trip when I stayed there again the facilities will be better. The vegetarian spring rolls and vegetarian cutlets are yummy. Myself and my Son love to drink the strawberry guavas juice in the hotel restaurant.

This hotel has lots of old English charm. Beautifully appointed with timber floors and solid timber door frames and doors. Amazing old ballroom with gallery around the upper level. It is hoped the property is preserved for many years to come. The corridors and common rooms were strongly scented with cloves. The flowers were changed regularly and the displays were fantastic. Looking over the lake it was a short walk to the temple of the sacred tooth. Also a short tuc tuc ride to town centre.

Atmospheric hotel
A beautiful old colonial era hotel that was very atmospheric. Lovely grounds and excellent large swimming pool. We liked the long old corridors, nice bar and outdoor areas. The hotel is situated on the south of the lake a short tuk tuk ride or 15 -20 mins walk to town attractions. The road in front of the hotel is very busy so you need to take care ! Service was good. Breakfast buffet was ok . Overall a really nice historic place to stay in Kandy
