    Special Place
    Just back from a wonderful 8-night stay at this Villa, the place is a minute’s walk to restaurants, shops and walks around the fort walls. Breakfast was served on our own terrace at whatever time you choose, you can also have lunch and dinner all the food we had was superb. It is so peaceful and all the staff are so helpful and polite, we would return in a heartbeat. Thank you Team you were wonderful.

    Fantastic place with incredible staff
    Beautiful property that feels incredibly homey, not at all like a hotel. The poolside area was great for lounging and it wasn’t too warm. The food here was fantastic and the staff is very helpful and will go the extra mile for guests.

    Tranquil oasis
    What a unique find. A stunning heritage property in the center of Galle Fort. This beautifully restored merchant’s house is full of period features, antique pieces, and tastefully designed decor.
    A boutique property with only four rooms makes it very intimate and private. It is also one of the few hotels inside the fort that can boast a swimming pool. The surrounding garden area is compact but contains a riot of well-tended flowers and shrubbery and a glorious old frangipanis tree.
    We choose the garden view room on the upper floor of the main house. It was HUGE with a large outside verandah. Beautiful decor, comfy bed, and original wooden floorboards.
    The food was amazing and the staff was friendly and helpful. We truly felt like we were in our own homes.

    Lovely historic house in Galle fort
    Very well placed in Galle. Opposite grass and ramparts to sea. Short walk to the sights, shops and restaurants. Excellent breakfast served outside our room by the pool. Lovely fresh fruit beautifully presented, juice, tea and coffee and a selection of hot dishes. We ate lunch here on two days and it was also very good. The staff were charming and helpful.The room was clean and comfortable.

    Probably the best Hotel in Galle
    We stayed here for 3 nights and my review title was based on visiting quite a few hotels in Galle during our stay, including AmanGalle.
    This boutique property on Rampart Street is closest to the Ramperts of this Fort and the front of the house overlooks the sea.
    The property only has 4 bedrooms, 2 overlooking the garden pool, and 2 on the first floor.
    We upgraded twice, first from a poolside room to the first floor room , overlooking the pol. What a room !
    We would have been very happy there, but saw that the other room was vacant and overlooked the sea and was even larger and we were able to upgrade to that room as the property was quiet.
    There are at least 4 staff led by Chamuth, who described himself as the Villa Guardian and was available 24 hours a day.
    We had booked on a B& B basis and then realised that we could eat her and had a lovely traditional Sri Lankan meal.

    This place would be put to its best use with a group of friends taking over the whole Villa, but we enjoyed the personal service immensely and was rather spoilt by all the communal areas and the lovely pool.

    I would highly recommend this Hotel and believe it’s the best in Galle.

    Charming and stylish boutique villa
    This boutique hotel with only four rooms combines exceptional comfort and service with style, taste, and charm. This is one of the nicest boutique hotels we have ever stayed in. It was wonderful to be able to sit by the pool with my early morning tea and take in the interior decorating and lovely flowers. A real highlight of our Sri Lanka tour, especially combined with seeing old friends.

    A charming boutique hotel in the heart of the Fortified City
    Small (4 room) hotel, beautifully decorated with real character. Staff are very accommodating and friendly. The hotel has a central alfresco dining area and a courtyard with a swimming pool, which is great. There are a load of great bars, cafes and restaurants in the old town within walking distance. Highly recommend staying here.

    Excellent stay in Galle
    Beautiful character house with lovely comfortable rooms, great food, and very good service. We loved a dip in the pool watching the visiting monkeys.

    Character hotel in great location
    You can sense the history of the building as soon as you walk in. There is a lovely wooden staircase leading to the first floor.
    We had a very comfortable first-floor room, with a balcony, leading to a spacious bathroom. There was a great view over the garden and pool. A side window gave a view of trees, with langur monkeys.
    The garden is lush with flowers, attracting birds and other wildlife.
    There is a great choice of breakfast dishes and an exciting dinner menu. The food was delicious.
    There are other restaurants within easy walking distance.
    The staff was very friendly and helpful.
