The room is big, the location is good, the transportation is average, there are no consumption options around, the scenery is good, the sound of the waves is too loud at night, it is good to watch the sunrise, just lie on the bed

This afternoon during a scooter trip I stopped at this hotel to have a drink and take a dip. We were kindly received by a man and said this was okay. There was a friendly young man standing at the pool bar. It is a fantastic location but unbelievable how far reaching glory it is. There was literally no one in sight. Swimming pool was very dirty and the tiles on the edges were literally falling down. After 45 minutes we paid for the drinks and walked past the reception. We were told that we had to pay 4000 rupees because we had used the swimming pool. This is not indicated anywhere and was not informed to us in advance. 4000 rupees for this state is definitely not worth it. If we had known this afterwards, we would have continued.

I stayed at the Closenberg Hotel for 9 days in February 2024. The hotel, which is several hundred years old, is run by a very nice family and is in a great location with a view of the bay. In the morning you can watch the surfers and waves here. The room was clean with its own balcony and AC. The staff was very friendly and the food was great too. The pool with its own bar invites you to linger. I felt very comfortable and can definitely recommend the hotel.

It was so good that we stayed twice, rearranging our trip so we could end it there as it was a total highlight. Staff were unbelievably kind and helpful, they were so wonderful with our wee baby that it felt like a home away from home. Best drinks in Sri Lanka, food was delicious and it’s just got a generally cool vibe. Beaut view and location, close enough to the action but just away so you can feel like you’re on your own secluded island. LOVE Closenberg, take me back!!!

This hotel is one of the best I've stayed in. The hospitality is incredible and the staff are very friendly. The infinity pool is very relaxing and it has an amazing view. The cocktails at the pool bar are also excellent. Highly recommended. Huge thanks to everyone at Closenberg :-)

Absolutely spectacular! My recent stay at this exquisite property left me utterly spellbound. From the moment I set foot on the grounds, I knew I had stumbled upon a true gem. The location itself seems plucked from the pages of paradise, with its breathtaking vistas and serene ambiance. Let's talk about the food—prepare your taste buds for a symphony of flavours! Each dish presented with meticulous care and bursting with mouthwatering deliciousness. And the staff? Well, they're simply unparalleled. Their warmth and hospitality made me feel like royalty from the moment I arrived. The sea-view room, oh, what a marvel! Its ethereal charm and mesmerising vistas made it nearly impossible to tear myself away. And don't even get me started on the infinity swimming pool! The fact that it's filtered with salt water from the sea adds an extra touch of luxury that's simply unparalleled. This place truly has a way of calming the soul and rejuvenating the spirit. I have absolutely no complaints. None whatsoever! I would not hesitate for a moment to return to this idyllic haven, and I wholeheartedly recommend that everyone experience its magic at least once in their lifetime. Trust me, you won't regret it.

The rooms come with an amazing view of the indian ocean. Closenberg seems to be a heritage hotel perched atop of a low lying cliffside corner of Galle beach. Mornings here are a wholesome treat for the soul accompanied by heartful(Sri Lankan preferred)breakfast followed by equally delicious meals. The hotel is laced with a skirting pool and cute front gardens ahead of every room. Beds are big, soft and fluffy. Though located in what seems to be a busy part of Galle, the hotel is nestled in a quieter corner, therefore, making it the perfect quaint getaway!
