Leijay provided excellent convenience and service on my second visit. It was the only accommodation that I went to twice in Sri Lanka, and it was worth it.

Excelent staff

Leijay resort exceeded my expectations in many ways. The management and staff were very helpful and kind, the breakfasts were great and the environment was fantastic: a lovely pool, nice rooms and lots of birds and other wildlife all around. It is not next to Galle Fort, but it is easy to get to and from this quiet location to downtown. I will come back here!!

Sadly the photos for this hotel are very misleading. What I'm sure was once a wonderful hotel has been left by its new owner to turn into a dirty and unloved state. The rooms are full of ants, mouldy shower curtains hang at a window instead of blinds, lights only omit a dim light or flicker uncontrollably, toilets leak through walls into bedrooms when flushed, aircons are stuck on one setting, the grass around the pool has disappeared to leave concrete... Our room had a frog on top of the shower and when we complained they offered to move us but the alternative was a room with a birds nest in the light fitting! The workers have been left to pick up the complaints whilst the owner is out of the country. It's such a shame as it could be a lovely hotel as it has a great size swimming pool (rare to find in Galle) and some lovely seated areas around the garden. It just needs some money put in and the staff to care for it. Avoid until it is renovated or sold on to someone who actually cares.

First room had a broken lock which meant the door didn’t shut, so I asked to be moved to another room. Hotel is run down and old. Only two tables for breakfast so had to wait ages for someone to finish. Possible 2* hotel. Nothing like the photos at all. Really bad WiFi and felt pressured into giving the receptionist money for her daughter.

The staff were really nice, helpful and friendly. The property is a little bit out of town so they arranged a tuk tuk driver to take us to and from Galle fort area. That was helpful as we used the same guy over and again as he knew how to get to the property (its a bit off the beaten track). My room had ants in the bathroom but other than that we were very happy staying there and would stay there again. The pool looked delightful and was well utilised by other guests. We were just a bit too busy to use it.

It's a lovely haven of peace and quiet, some way from local amenities. Tuk tuk to Galle is 300 rupees, which is pretty OK. The rooms are comfortable, air conditioning, WiFi, and a kitchenette / living room and balcony on the bigger room. The pool is great, and breakfast is nice and simple. Galle and area is the best place on Sri Lanka, so much to do. Finally, lots of wildlife at the hotel - Monitor lizards, chit-chats, monkeys, beautiful birds, frogs etc.

Very relaxing, good ambience. Friendly staff. But need more sign boards to locate the place

Absolutely awful, too many problems to mention. My video of the room made my wife say that she wouldn't even have unpacked her bag.

Its located a couple of miles away from the city. You will need private transport unless the hotel or you can call a taxi. The property has a few new rooms but the majority are old and needs improving or upgrading. Its more like a large house that has seen better days. Lovely manicured garden. Staff is helpful and friendly. I dont think they have had formal training in the leisure sector.
