the best hotel in Galle, Sri Lanka,

the Radisson Blu Resort Galle is the ideal choice for you.
Once, we wanted to relax at a hotel in Galle. We had a lengthy list of hotels in Galle. I hope you know how time-consuming it can be to come to an agreement when there are so many members in your gang.
Yeah, we went through the same process. Finally, to my relief, we discovered the Radisson Blu Resort Galle in the morning on the day of the trip.
Let me tell you why Radisson Blu Resort Galle is a good choice.
When you step into the lobby, the view and the hospitality of the staff have the power to soothe your thoughts. The sound of the nearby ocean is a great addition to the property. While slipping the welcome drink, watch the luxury view in front of you that takes you to another world.

Radisson Blu Resort Galle Buffet
We checked in around lunchtime, but there was no buffet due to the smaller crowd. So, they asked us to select food from A-la-Carte. From starters to desserts, we asked the chef to recommend the food. You know what? He never failed to amaze us. The food was superb!
Radisson Blu Resort Galle room and other amenities
Our room was a deluxe one, and it was cozy and beautifully decorated. Once you push aside the curtains, the view from the balcony can stun you. Inside the room, you have:
- coffee and tea-making facilities
- free wifi
- work desk
- minibar
- TV
- Bedroom couch
- bathroom amenities
A few minutes after lunch, we went to the pool and had a great time. You would love the pool, too. It is a cool-looking swimming pool with a glass wall on one side.
If your phone is not waterproof, don’t worry! Still, you can get pictures of yourself underwater. Ask someone outside the pool to get the pictures when you sink in the water.
We asked for a float from the hotel staff, and it made our fun double.
You will never feel bored. So many things are around to keep you entertained. You can play pool billiard, chess, play on the beach, or go to the gym. At night, after the dinner buffet, we walked under the stars on the beach. Very peaceful! Trust me.
