I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and lots of shops and restaurants nearby. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making for a relaxing stay. The staff was really friendly and always ready to help. However, I found the breakfast options to be somewhat limited, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, it's a great value for the money, with just a few small areas for improvement.

The staff were friendly and accommodating, adding to the overall pleasant experience. However, the dining options were a bit limited and could definitely use some improvement.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is set in a beautifully renovated house within the fort, making it feel very special. The location is unbeatable, just a short walk to the ramparts and close to downtown Galle. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but I noticed some areas could use a little updating. Overall, it’s great value for money, though the dining options left me wanting more variety.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which was situated in a charming renovated building right in Galle downtown. The room was spacious and well-kept, and the staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly. Although the dining options were decent, I wish there were more variety, especially at breakfast. The location is a standout, just a short walk to the beach and close to the Ramparts, but I did find the Wi-Fi a bit pricey since it wasn’t included in the stay.
