We visited Gloria Grand Hotel with a bunch of friends which was located right next to the beautiful Unawatuna Beach and this was our weekend getaway! Despite the lack of foreign tourists due to the pandemic, the hotel was functioning as usual with local tourists and the service was excellent. Even though we had a refreshing sea bath, we wanted to enjoy some relaxing time at the pool with friends and Manoj, the manager arranged it for us on our quick request! Right after we came out of the pool we were served with some mouth watering pizzas and I must say those were some of the best I’ve had in Galle! We needed more of course as we were so hungry after long walks across the gorgeous sandy beach in Unawatuna. So we requested chefs special but didn’t want a heavy meal. To our surprise the seafood pasta served with two options, tomato purée or creamy sauce, was on point! While we were enjoying our light, early dinner, we had many requests like, music, tv, photos, etc. and Manoj attend to all our requests with a smile! All in all, we had a great time in Unawatuna and I would highly recommend Gloria Grand Hotel to anyone looking for a refreshing weekend getaway! …
We were happy to visit the Gloria Grand hotel. We left with unforgettable impressions, and I want to return. Thank you to the staff for their responsiveness, sincerity, understanding, and effort to make the rest better, and fulfill our wishes. In the kitchen, in the restaurant, everything is fine, the atmosphere is cozy, the food is very tasty, and every day Nalinde helped us with our small requests, making our stay comfortable and memorable. The view from the Windows is just amazing: monkeys, wurumuqi, peacocks and many other beautiful birds of Sri Lanka! The room was cleaned every day. Thank you very much! I recommend the guest to stay.
Room,food and service was fantastic. Very friendly staff. Breakfast buffet is really awesome. Mix of English and Sri Lankan meals. Closer to Unawatuna beach and Jungle beach. We will visit again. Thank you.
in the city center, it is convenient we were in the suite.... no paper toilet, you have to ask to the room service. the tub jacuzzi does not work, it is blocked and there is no hot water. the laundry service is not good, the clothes are yet dirty and come back in the same bag. For the breakfast: you should pay charge for having a small bottle of mineral water in order to take medicine..... and no replenishment. several tiny spiders in the room and lizard dead for several days under the bed... Do not book the suite and better: avoid such hotel
Nice clean new looking room, proper big comfy bed with lots of plush clean pillows, nice shower with decent water pressure and reliable hot water. Finally got a bit of much needed comfort here after staying in lots of budget guesthouses, the room was pretty much at the standard you'd get back home yet still very affordable (I got it for around $50/night just after New Year). Great value for money. Pool was nice too, was able to chill and have some beers in there even past the normal pool hours thanks to the awesome manager Malin who was an absolute master of hospitality and kindness. (He also runs a private villa a bit inland at great rates called Prarthana House, great if you're staying a week or more it's like $20 a night or less and looks very nice and clean). Location is right in the middle of the main Unawatuna beach-area street full of shops and restaurants, and a couple minutes walk to the beach itself and also near the main road where you can hop on a quick bus to Galle or anywhere else (very easy and MUCH cheaper than a tuk tuk!). Recommended!…
