The staff were amazing, they were always around and made sure the stay was smooth. The breakfast was great and time to have breakfast was flexible. The main area of the hotel where you have breakfast is really nice with Old architecture, high ceilings and an indoor garden with natural light. The stay was great value for the upmarket area inside Galle Fort.

When I booked this hotel, I was expecting to have a nice view from my room or from a common area however I think only one or two rooms have a view of the Fort and the sea.

Location is fantastic. Away from the hustle of the busy areas of the Fort but within easy walking distance of them, the ramparts and Galle town. Rooms are comfortable and bathrooms clean. Lovely ambience and a reasonable fish restaurant right opposite. The staff are exceptional in their attention and very friendly and helpful in all ways, doing what they can to make the visit comfortable. When I asked for a special Sri-Lankan breakfast, a delicious home made meal arrived both mornings. Definitely a place I would return to. Many thanks to Sanji and his wonderful companion for taking so much care of us.

Anywhere in the fort is a good location, so this hotel fit the bill. The room was reasonable. Very comfy mattresses. The shower was good, although the rain head was too low for me. You can use the other head if you're fussed. AC was good and not loud. Breakfast was great. Probably the biggest fruit plate I've had in Sri Lanka. The place was quiet out of season, but I could see how it might get echoey with more people.

One of the lights was flickering badly. I was told to use the working light. One of the power points didn't work. There was a second one, so no drama.

the location was perfect, nice balcony, kettle in room

breakfast was fairly basic but perfectly acceptable. the staff although lovely couldnt retain information, we were asked tea or coffee 3 times before we got the coffee :)))) the room was a little small but comfortable, the plug socket was hard to reach and there was only one in the room. also only one person could take payment and we tried to pay 4 times as we were checking out early we wanted to pay before

Very clean and budget rooms in a perfect location with extraordinary rich breakfast, including fresh fruits, butter, jam and eggs. Staff very friendly and helpful. Especially Shanji efforts for almost everything and guides to the customers volunterely at the same time. The manager known as 'uncle' is also very helpful and a wise guy and responsible to the customers needs. For couple of days this place is really a good and budget option.

Only thing is the building is historical and needs some maintanence.

The host took very good care of us and fulfilled our wishes. He even insisted in getting up at 4 am in order to offer us breakfast on our final day, that was really nice gesture! Earlier check-in was possible as we arrived early in the morning.

There was no window to outside in the room and the air got a bit sticky.

The staffs ...especially Mahinda... He is very kind, helpful and friendly. He help me to find transportations from Galle to Colombo with reasonable prices within the price of Uber. The locations of the hotel is superb.. you can visit all the tourist attractions within walking distance but yet very quiet in the night so I can sleep very well. I highly recommended

Location, in the Fort and close to the sea with views of both from our room. Staff were charming and attentive .

No toiletries or coffee making equipment as advertised and in the De Luxe sea facing room, no WiFi and a distinct whiff of drains in the en suite shower room.

Amazing staff... They are the heart of the place. Great location to walk around the fort. The room wad comfortable and cozy. More than anything I loved the hospitality of the two gentlemen working there!

They could issue some basic toiletries like most of the hotels, especially when the stores were closed for holidays, we couldn't find a place to buy shampoo and stuff and the hotel doesn't provide them.

Brilliant location being in the old town and perfectly placed for wandering around as well as having some great restaurants on the doorstep. Helpful host who made our stay very pleasant

Would have been nice to have a kettle in the room - was a bit odd not having one as all others places we stayed in Sri Lanka did.
