Worst accommodation on our whole trip

Location

Apart from the location, it was the worst accommodation on our 30-day trip to Sri Lanka. Where the good reviews come from is unclear to me. We received a very unfriendly welcome. After an unmotivated tetrapack welcome drink, we had to pay the room directly, which had never happened before. The room was very small, old and just dingy. The bathroom was very old and not really cleaned, the mirror was still full of toothpaste splashes. The bottled water in the room were refilled bottles, the water in them undrinkable. The kitchen offered for self cooking is in reality only suitable for tea or coffee. The roof terrace is full and is used for drying laundry. You can't enjoy the sunset up here. Old books lie in piles on the floor, sockets are falling apart. Up until then we were used to a lot of things, but then from the absolutely low-budget sector. The most annoying thing was the unfriendly and unmotivated staff. Annoyed by every question and preferring to sit in the corner chatting. If we hadn't had to pay in advance, we would have left again!.

Très bon rapport qualité/prix pour profiter d’une nuit à l’intérieur de Fort de Galle.

Très beau bâtiment de style colonial et emplacement idéal en plein centre du Fort de Galle Bon petit déjeuner

L’accueil était sympathique mais pas des plus chaleureux en comparaison avec d’autres Guest houses au Sri Lanka

Recomendado quedarse en el Fuerte de Galle

Estar en Galle Fort es un lujo. Sin ruido, sin caos comparado a Galle ciudad. Restaurantes y supermercados cerca. Habitación limpia y baño limpio con agua caliente. Zona comunitaria con nevera y cafetera. No probamos el desayuno pero era casero.

El tamaño de la habitación era un poco justo para tres personas. La recepción de las personas encargadas no fue muy entusiasta. La cama individual era muy muy blanda.

Awesome place

The location of the hotel is within the fort. The rooms are old but they are maintained very well by the owners. Everything was clean. The breakfast service was very good. Definitely recommend this place.

Like most places in Drilanka, they don't accept card.

Initially we only booked onenight but booked a seond night as soon as we arrived. The host and all the staff were extremely warm welcoming and very helpful. The rooms were immaculate and comfortable. There was a communal area, where you could help yourself to tea. Coffee and filtered water and a communal fridge which was ideal to keep your drinkins cool The location was perfect being within the fort. The breakfast was varied, delicious and in abundance, too much personally I would highly recommend staying here

Nothing to say.

Wonderful colonial-style accommodation in the heart of Galle Fort with great personnel & brekkie

Beautiful colonial-style building with all rooms going to a balcony. Very friendly hosts giving great tips for exploring the town and offering a common area with drinking water and a very nice and rich breakfast. The hosts even gave us an upgrade free of charge and served us a special dish for breakfast on our request. The location is not so easily identifiable from the street, but through the description from the hosts it is no problem. Very comfortable beds with mosquito nets and the room is equipped with air condition and a fan.

Right next to sea, lovely clean rooms with communal balconies, the host really wanted to make you feel welcome. Breakfast was huge like 3 different ones, fruit& yoghurt, eggs and sausages with toast and indian 5 part thali with roti - too much for me and only 1250 rupees.

Probably the best guest house in Galle!

An excellent guest house, located on the territory of the fort, an interesting historical building. The rooms are comfortable, clean, quiet after 22 hours. There is a shared kitchen where you can make tea and coffee for free, as well as warm up food, there is also a refrigerator for guests. In the common area there is entertainment for guests: kicker, darts, board games. The beach is 3 minutes walk, Cargills store on the next street is 2 minutes walk. Wi-fi worked fine! Probably the best guest house in Galle!
