Fairly clean and modern place with very amiable staff. Very central location, within a close distance from a restored clock tower. Found in the safe area short walk to a Restaurant, the California Grill and Parliament. Lobby bar in the hotel.

The location is excellent for nightlife enthusiasts, with vibrant bars, cafes, and the famous Ministry of Crab nearby. The hotel also offers a free roundtrip shuttle to casinos.
Cleanliness issues were present. Curtains appeared unwashed, and the carpets could definitely use a thorough cleaning to freshen up the space.

Very pleasant staff, very helpful, checking in & out was pretty smooth. Fantastic location. If one's travelling with kids, they'll enjoy the beachfront... though not ideal for swimming.
Recreational facil;ities(Pool table etc) had to be paid for!! Pool was free to use. Have to be wary when they're billing you as there was an issue of charging the credit card again(which was later resolved).Unless one is immediately alerted (from his/her bank via sms etc) it can cause a lot of inconvenience later.

Had a boss time! The staff were dead sound, especially Janith, who sorted us quick with a new room when the AC played up. That sea view from me room was breathtaking, just lush! But a dirty kettle was a bit of a letdown.

Pleasant and helpful staff members at Galadari. Food was good enough at least to satisfy my asian palate's craving.
Property needs urgent refurbishment. In the current state I think the price is on the higher side and I would only stay again at the Galadari if the room rents were cheaper. Heavy security around the area due to parliament house being on the opposite side of the road.

Quite helpful, professional and friendly staff. Good location on the sea shore in the center of Clombo city. Excellent view from the Calfornia Grill rooftop restaurant. Good variety of food in hotel restaurants.
Ageing facility, some refreshment and renovation needed. Bathroom needs renovation. Room seems to be a bit overpriced keeping in mind it's current condition. A number of hidden supplimentary charges are adding up to the bill.
