Media Reviews
"'This 145 year old grande dame of Colombo faces Galle Face Green to the north and the sea to the west. The sweeping stairways, high ceilings and grass courtyard buffeted by sea breezes look much the same as they did nearly 100 years ago. Just about everyone who visits Colombo shows up for a drink at the Veranda bar at some point, whether or not they stay at the hotel.'"

Location
Galle Face Regency is the new Regency wing of Galle Face Hotel, and will only enhance its reputation for a contemporary colonial feel. The hotel has an unrivalled position at the foot of Galle Face Green and the addition of the Regency wing makes it an even more tempting alternative to Colombo's modern five-stars for primarily a middle-aged and elderly clientele.
Introduction
The Galle Face Hotel, established in 1864 and once the mansion of a British Governor, is a masterpiece of Victorian architecture. It possesses an unrivalled location in the capital, on the edge of the Indian Ocean and at the foot of Galle Face Green, and offers an appealing, colonial-style alternative to travellers seeking a change from standard five-star business hotels. The Galle Face's new upmarket Regency wing offers a remarkable transition between old and new. It incorporates the traditional Victorian features so successfully that already it blends seamlessly with the older part of the hotel. Although completed in early 2006, there is no sense of glitzy modernity. Its stately wooden paneling and floors, and staunchly Victorian rooms, are immediately resonant of a bygone age. Like the older part of the hotel, the Regency retains the dignified and polite atmosphere that gave it such fame in the colonial age. The Galle Face Regency is a member of Select Hotels & Resorts International.
