Perfectly located and super comfy hotel

This quaint hotel is perfectly situated to explore the Galle Fort. The room was comfortable and had a lovely little sitting area outside overlooking the courtyard. The restaurant served the most amazing lunch - I had the grilled prawns and it was superb! There is a little supermarket right next door and the best ice cream place in Galle - Dairy King is just opposite.

Beautiful stay in the heart of Galle Fort

One of the best places we stayed in Sri Lanka. The room was beautiful, shower being excellent! The staff were so friendly, funny and attentive. The food was always delicious. The shops and restaurants in the area were beautiful. We went scuba diving close by.

Nothing!

Recomendable

Una habitación bonita, con una cama muy cómoda y todo muy limpio. Todo muy moderno. Necesitamos un adaptador para poder cargar los móviles y el personal del hotel, en nuestro caso Muhammad, enseguida no lo consiguió. Fue muy atento con nosotros desde la llegada hasta el dia de la salida. El desayuno estuvo muy bueno.

The perfect two nights in Galle, will be returning!

We loved our stay at the fort house from start to finish! We got a free upgrade on arrival which was a really welcome surprise. The staff were so so friendly and helpful, the bed was the comfiest we’ve ever slept in and the hotel is decorated beautifully. Little touches like coffee and tea in the room, and toiletries in the bathroom were much appreciated. Room was really clean, cannot fault it, and they are happy to clean daily. The breakfast was amazing- I loved the hoppers and the fresh fruit! Perfect location for exploring the fort. I’d recommend getting up early morning to walk the walls of the fort as the locals do- really beautiful.

Nothing! It was perfect!

Overall a very nice stay. I did not have hot water for both days and, in fairness, the staff did their best to resolve.

-Beautifully appointed rooms -Good location with rooms set back from the room so very peaceful -Friendly and well-meaning staff -Hands-on owner -Abundant breakfast

-Wi-fi is patchy, especially in the rooms -Hot water is not a given -Would love if the restaurant served more local dishes

Spacious room, delicious breakfast, very welcoming staff who made us feel at home. We recommend to try the restaurant as

We loved Mohamed, he really made us feel at home, but the rest of the staff was also wonderful and always smiling. Very comfortable bed, we slept like babies. Quiet place in the middle of the old city.

Maybe a small fridge in the room. But except for that, everything was perfect!

Fruktansvärt. Vi. in, fick nycklar till rum och

Åt inte frukost. Kunde inte bo på hotellet.

Hotellet saknade elektricitet och vatten från c:a kl 18 då vi kom till hotellet. Efter att ha suttit på en närliggande restaurang i fem timmar som både hade elektricitet och vatten konstaterade vi att vi inte kunde använda hotellet. Det var kolsvart utan emergency lights, någon form av belysning, generator och utan vatten. Det saknades vakt och hotellpersonal. Vår chaufför hjälpte oss till våra rum för att hämta våra väskor och vi lämnade hotellet och lämnade nycklarna på deras Front desk efter att ha trasslat oss ner från första våningen och i kolsvart mörker. Vi hade inte suttit på sängarna eller använt badrummen. Vi hade inte tillgång till ljus, vatten, aircon, fläkt, personal eller vakt.

Mitt i Galle, fräsch hotell och modernt.

Mitt i stan, nära till precis allt. Så fint inrett, vintage. Fina Loungeset precis utanför vår dörr. Fräscha rum och moderna. Fint badkar.

Frukosten… Man fick inte välja vad man ville ha utan fick det bara serverat. Vi slängde mycket mat eftersom vi inte gillade det. Ingen berättade vad man kunde välja på. Sedan är det bra om personalen lyssnar på vad man säger så minskar man också matsvinnet.

Perfect spot for exploring beautiful Galle

Excellent location for exploring Galle Fort. Staff couldn’t be more helpful - special mention to Ishara, Sam & Arshad who were so lovely & made sure we were very well looked after, helping us with onward travel too. The traditional Sri Lankan breakfast each morning was a highlight! Hope to come back one day…

Great place to explore Galle Fort from

Great staff. Property with character. Best location in the Fort area. Effective a/c Excellent local breakfast hoppers!

Our room was confirmed for two nights, but we had to move hotel for the second night due to a booking issue with their systems. To be fair the second night's accommodation was excellent too, but it was a chore and initially presented as a potential booking cancellation. It all worked out well in the end though.

Perfetta soluzione nel Forte

Ottima struttura in perfetto stile con il forte di Galle, personale molto gentile e sorridente, colazione tipica , camera ampia e bagno molto bello

Se andate chiedete le camere al 1 piano sono meno rumorose che al piano terra essendo queste vicino al bar

Brand new hotel in the center with a great staff team !

Brand new hotel inside the Fort, very well located close to all the main places to visit and to all restaurants, cafés and shops. The staff pays a lot of attention to the guests, making sure that we had all we needed. The food is really good too, we had Western and Sri Lankan breakfast cooked by the hotel, really good!

Good stay, lovely hotel

A new hotel - located within the fort in a beautiful renovated house Very comfortable room. We had a free upgrade which I think the owner offers if available . The breakfast was delicious. Best Ive had in Sri Lanka .. The owner is very hospitable and helpful He arranged tuk tuk to take us out down the coast . Everything else you can walk . Limited reviews because it’s new but I recommend. Good accommodation for the price.

All great .
