Amazing stay – highly recommended! I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay — always ready to assist with a smile. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, with a good variety of options. The location is perfect: close to everything but still quiet enough to relax. I truly enjoyed every moment here and would definitely come back. Thank you for making my trip so pleasant!

It’s a beautiful historic property in a great location. The staff is wonderful. The restaurant is quite good. The rooms have been so thoughtfully decorated. We loved the grounds of the hotel, with so many beautiful trees, watching the monkeys.

    The Galle Fort in Galle is my absolute favorite place — it has a vibe of its own. It’s completely safe at any time of the day, even for solo travelers. There’s so much history within the Fort walls to learn about and beautiful architecture to explore. The hosts at the restaurants and hotels inside the Fort are amazing, and the service is truly of international standard. The view of the Indian Ocean from the Ramparts is simply breathtaking. There are plenty of restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines and dishes to try. Outside the Fort, I highly recommend visiting the beaches at Unawatuna, just a few kilometers from Galle City Centre. While you’re there, don’t miss the Japanese Peace Pagoda at Rumassala — you won’t regret it! Yaddehimulla Road in Unawatuna has everything from surf schools and restaurants to gem shops, gelato spots, international cuisines, and everything in between. For quick bites and essentials, SPAR Supermarket at Galle City Centre is your go-to place. You’ll find tasty rice and curry meals, ready-to-eat options, mosquito repellent, basic medical supplies, snacks, good-quality fruits, and other everyday necessities.

    quaint and charming place, with a relaxed pace of life -- besides the Galle fort, peace tower, handloom factory, silk showroom, and spice garden, there lots of good places nearby with treks and forest trails-- mahamura, sinharaja, yala, ,kanneliya-- boon for nature lovers ! watch out for the leeches though !

    If you're going to Galle, stay inside the Fort. Lots of charming little villas and boutique hotels where you can drop your bags and go walkabout, soaking in the colonial charm and enjoying the relaxed vibe. Great food options, live music and incredible sunsets.

    The vibe that Galle fort shares during anytime of the day is marvelous. It is a super child friendly place with amazing shops and places at every corner. It has the ambience of a unique blend between antiquity and modernity filled with aesthetic taste of rich culture and art. Seems its potential is still untapped fully. Loved the eateries and little cafes designed with elegance and charm. It showcases the serenity of a typical European port city with Dutch colonial architecture.

    We originally had one full day planned at Galle but we ended up being there for longer. We didn't need to be there any longer than one day. The walk around the Fort was lovely but there were not really many good shops to see and it was a little touristy in the Fort. Unfortunately they still let cars and motorbikes and Tuk Tuks in the street of the Fort which was difficult to navigate. Not really much to do in Galle except for the Fort.

    This was a very comfortable and excellently located hotel. The outstanding element to our stay were the hotel staff led by Hirudima. They were delightful and Hirudima went out of his way to be helpful and friendly. He even organised a courier to deliver a bag we left behind to our next location. The hotel staff made our stay in Galle a real pleasure and were among the very best we have encountered throughout our many hotel stays in Sri Lanka.

    Amazing old style restored colonial house inside the old fort, the location could not be better for a couple of days in Galle. Every room has its own charm and identity and the feel of a boutique hotel. The staff is super helpful - special mention to Sedesh for helping us with our onward travel.l and making us feel extra welcomed. Special mention for the breakfast which is the best we had in Sri Lanka by a long stretch.

There are also restaurants to eat and many other activities nearby. For example the town of Galle. I highly recommend the accommodation.
