Radisson Collection Resort & Spa, Galle

Radisson Collection Resort & Spa, Galle

📍 724 Matara Rd, Talpe
★★★★★ 8.6 (60 reviews)

"Had a great time and enjoyed some truly stunning views 😍 The staff were lovely and friendly but at times had to request or remind them about certain things, perhaps because we’re South Asians as most guests seemed to be Western. Some amenities listed such as toothpaste, toothbrush, slippers and a razor were not provided which was a little disappointing considering the price paid. Also noticed a few stains on the toilet floor and white curtains though it wasn’t a major issue. The breakfast buffet was good but wish there had been more variety. Overall had a lovely and memorable stay and really enjoyed the trip with my best friend."

"Beautiful grounds, very attentive staff, ready to help and accommodate. However, the furniture in the rooms is tired and the cleaning in the common areas is lacking. Otherwise, it's a great hotel."

"We spent three nights at this gorgeous property in a stunning location on the beach. It is close to surf beaches and Galle fort. This is a clean, modern building with a luxurious feel and very attentive, friendly staff. The owner has created a unique experience for guests with a “home from home”, ambiance. The food was excellent, as was the service. Dining by the large pool with the sound of crashing surf is an unforgettable experience. We would love to return to this beautiful hotel."

"A Calm, Homely & Truly Relaxing Stay – The Southern Heritage We had a wonderful experience at The Southern Heritage. From the moment we arrived, the place felt calm, peaceful, and just like home 🌿🏡 The atmosphere is very relaxing, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the southern vibes. Everything was clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully arranged. What really made our stay special was the staff — extremely kind, friendly, and attentive. They always made sure we were comfortable and looked after us with genuine care, which is rare to find these days.

"Oh my goodness, this hotel is absolutely beautiful! The facilities are fantastic, and since it's newly opened, it's super convenient to get everywhere. The hotel restaurant's food is unbelievably good, and the breakfast was incredibly amazing and diverse, served à la carte!"

Celestia by Sea Cloud ★★★
"We actually booked 'Caliza by Sea Cloud' but when we phoned to confirm we was told to come to Celestia instead. They are still listing Caliza on *********** even though it is undergoing major building work. Overall we was very disappointed with our stay here especially when the 5.45am train hurtled past right by the back fence hooter blaring due to the crossing a 100 metres away. When we queried how regular and late the trains would pass by we was told by the owner the last train is at 6pm, there is one just before 9pm. We was asked to pay before we had even been shown the room. It is not good value it is over priced for the location and breakfast not included. The room is a reasonable size, no mosquito netting. There is a kettle, no fridge. We reported that our toilet was leaking as there was a large puddle all around it we was told it was condensation. Funny, all the other places we stayed in didn't have that issue! There are lots of other nicer places to be found, l certainly would not recommend this place or Caliza. Fortunately we only booked for 2 nights."

WB Villa ★★★
"A wonderful boutique hotel with a fantastic Italian restaurant. Vihan and his team are simply superb. They are friendly, attentive and nothing is too much trouble. They are at hand to drive you into the nearby town or further afield to Galle and even to Udawalawe National Park for the elephant safari. The restaurant, where delicious continental and Sri Lankan breakfasts along with fresh fruit platters are served, overlooks the Indian Ocean. Nothing quite like having breakfast watching and listening to the waves roll into shore. Vihan was always on hand to recommend sights and attractions. A highlight was the Angara Home Cookery class which was a 1/2 day Sri Lankan cooking course run by Dinesha, a lovely local lady, in her outside kitchen in her home. She takes you to a local fish / meat market and then a vegetable market to source the products, before you cook in her outside kitchen which is set amongst mango and coconut trees in her garden. The food was incredible! If you are planning to stay along the south coast in Sri Lanka, I would thoroughly recommend staying at WB Villa!"

The Frangipani Tree by Edwards Collection - Thalpe ★★★★★
"The hotel is stunning, quiet and very private. The rooms were fantastic, with two rooms alone in one building for my family, opening out to the sea. Yet what stood out was the absolutely sensational service. Sampath and Sanjeewa were among the best we've ever seen, always remembering our requests. Attentive, and on the ball, nothing was too much for them. They are so organised and on top of everything. The other staff are also brilliant, with the service always fast, and polite. Pasindu showed some great skills with the football when entertaining our kids. Everyone there was great with the kids and they absolutely loved the stay and were so sad to leave. The gentleman who cleaned the pool and the beach was amazing also. We enjoyed the new year celebrations a great deal. We recommend this property wholeheartedly and hope to go back soon. Thanks again to Sampath for arranging everything so well. Can't wait to go back. The breakfast was absolutely incredible "

Elysium ★★★★★
"This beautiful boutique hotel exceeded my expectations. Its fantastic location made exploring the Galle area effortless, with great dining and entertainment options just steps away. Despite being centrally situated, the hotel provided a peaceful and relaxing retreat. The service was exceptional—from the warm welcome to the staff’s attentive and personalized care, every detail was handled with professionalism. Their dedication made our stay truly memorable. The hotel’s elegant design blended tradition with comfort. My room was stylish and well-appointed, featuring plush bedding and thoughtful amenities. The common areas exuded charm, creating a cozy yet luxurious atmosphere. With its perfect location, outstanding service, and stunning ambiance, this hotel is a true gem—I can’t wait to return!"

Satin Doll ★★★
"We stayed 8 nights at the Satin Doll. The location and the entire team is amazing and they took great care of us to make our stay perfectly comfortable. The hotel is very good located and we had silence (no party’s). Galle and other beaches along the coast are easy to reach in case you like beach hopping ir sightseeing. Our Villa was big and the interior shows love to detail. The food is amazing as well and we had a great time. A special thank you to the team Damith, Channa, Dilan and the rest of the Satin Doll Team. You Rock!!!"
