Galle face has lots of history and is right on sea front. Very old and shows it in places but has lots of character. Large rooms, sturdy beds, old furniture, strong smell of mothballs and floor polish. You can go out in the morning saying goodbye to someone polishing a statue and come back four hours later to find him still polishing it. The lobster thermidor is nice, eaten ooutside, right next to the sea. mmmm must stop talking about food. No wonder I,m a fat boy.
