The terrace suite offered a spacious and clean retreat, while the staff were exceptionally considerate, ensuring our late arrival didn’t go unnoticed by keeping the kitchen open for us. Enjoying breakfast with an expansive menu overlooking the beautiful pool was a highlight, especially with the chef checking in on us. The hotel’s atmosphere, combining history with charm, made it an unforgettable experience. however, some amenities could benefit from modernization to enhance comfort.

Dilan prepared our take-away breakfast efficiently.

Where it excels and where it fails

The service gleamed with kindness. Dilan truly makes you feel at home! The ambiance and history envelop the entire stay, creating an unforgettable experience.

The stairs creak ominously, an unwelcome reminder of the hotel's age! A bit more attention to modern comforts would elevate the experience.

colonial charm, spacious loft suite, unique cookery class

The pool area could use additional lounging space!!! The stairs creak too much for my liking when navigating the property!!! A little more modernization wouldn't hurt to accommodate the current day's standards!!!

take a stroll through history while enjoying exquisite dinners at galle fort hotel

The Galle Fort Hotel is an enchanting blend of history and luxury. Each meal was a delight, especially dining in the romantic courtyard. The attentive staff made us feel truly special.

The antique cupboard door didn’t stay shut, but the amenities were fantastic.

The cookery class was a highlight, with hands-on seafood selection and delicious curry dishes. Unique loft suite with character!

Felt like home, no complaints at all.

We enjoyed the exceptional service. especially Chamara, who always checked in on us. The in-room breakfasts were delightful, featuring a variety of Sri Lankan options. Relaxing by the pool offered a nice escape, despite the limited sunlight.

The Loft Suite was truly impressive with its high ceilings and bespoke furniture, giving it an authentic antique charm. The evenings spent at the Ropewalk bar were delightful, sipping cocktails while watching the vibrant street life unfold. The dining experience was exceptional, especially with the fresh local ingredients enhancing every dish we tried.

No significant issues were encountered during the stay.

The pool area and the beautifully restored Dutch architecture were highlights for me! Breakfast was a feast, with tropical fruits and savory Sri Lankan curry. Only downside was the lobby could be a bit stuffy. 🌴
