Apartment is in a high rise which is well equipped and is comfortable. Location is best with Galle face green and One Galle face mall at walking distance. Owner is helpful and very prompt in his replies. It felt like home away from home.

The GFH lives up to its reputation. The location is unbeatable, probably the best-located hotel in Colombo, situated right on the oceanfront. One can never get tired of the view of waves crashing against the rocks, whether sitting at the FireBeach or at the King of the Mambo. The rooms are spacious, and although they have a distinct colonial charm, they are equipped with all modern amenities. The beds are large and comfortable. Then comes the food. The hotel has several restaurants, and we tried all the buffets. They were extensive and absolutely delicious. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience.

Awesome room with beautiful ocean view. Special thanks to the staff who made it so memorable. I would like to thank the bald restaurant manager and Ajith who were very humble and caring from the time we checked in. A heart full thank you to Dalsy who got baby food prepared and even fed our baby. A note to the Big boss, these people are the gem of your hotel.

    A cozy hotel situated overlooking the Wellawatta Beach, on Marine Drive. Don't miss the pool on the third floor it has magnificent ocean view. The rooms are quite spacious and bed is very comfortable. I had booked an ocean view and we enjoyed the magnificent sunset.

    This hotel probably has one of the best locations in Colombo - It is right on the beachfront. It has an old colonial charm to it. Would highly recommend staying here.
