Albert
The place was impeccably clean, I booked the deluxe double room with city views, everything was really good. Good restaurant provided Western dishes. Everything exceeded high expectations, had a fairly nice stay for one or two nights.

Very friendly staff entire time.
Characterful hotel in a very very nice area near to Fort, the lighthouse and the ocean, and all the attractions. Good food for delicious and savoury breakfast with good food served. Spotless room, brand-new with a comfy bed. Perfect location, close to Courts Square...

Exceptionally clean characterful hotel with welcoming stuff. Stunning lovely location, in the old town. Also - just next door to old Galle, the fort around the Cricket ground and resturant and shops. A FANTASTIC stay for one or two nights.

I booked double room, it was gorgeous and complete with a/c, a decent hot shower, for example. The location turned out to be particularly good, just off Galle, Fort, the lighthouse and the ocean, and excellent restaurants.

Thanks very much everyone for a perfect 10/10 stay for one or two nights. It was a favourable location near to Sri Lanka, the old fort and Fort, Galle.
Liked everything.

We stayed at a guesthouse in Galle Fort and had a fantastic experience. The twin bed room was very comfortable with small double beds. The bathroom had hot water and the balcony outside offered a nice view of the quiet street. The wifi and air conditioning worked well, and the breakfast was the best we had during our trip to Sri Lanka. The location was great, just a short walk to the lighthouse and recommended restaurants.
Nothing that I didn't like. 👍

Our stay at this guesthouse was fantastic. The location in the fort area was excellent, with easy access to all the attractions. The rooms were very comfortable and spotlessly clean. We loved the fact that there was air conditioning in the rooms, which was a relief from the heat. Another advantage we enjoyed was the delicious breakfast served every morning, it was the best breakfast we had during our trip in Sri Lanka.
One small downside was that it was a bit hard to find the guesthouse as there was no sign on the front. However, we managed to find it by looking for the house number instead.

This cozy guesthouse is a hidden gem tucked away on a back street in the heart of the old city center. Located in the charming Fort, it offers the perfect base for exploring the area. The rooms are spotlessly clean and provide a comfortable retreat after a day of sightseeing. The friendly hosts go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay, offering helpful assistance and delicious breakfast options. The shared balcony is a nice touch, providing a space to relax and take in the surrounding ambiance.
One small drawback is that the bathroom floors can be slippery, so it is important to use caution.

The location of the hotel is perfect, as it is right in the heart of the old town and within walking distance of the beach. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with air conditioning and modern bathrooms. The staff are friendly and provide great service, ensuring that guests feel welcome. The breakfast served at the hotel is amazing, offering a variety of delicious options. there are facilities such as balconies and chairs that provide a pleasant view and space to relax.
It would be beneficial if there were thicker curtains or blinds in the rooms to block out the streetlights at night.
