An excellent stylish boutique hotel, well positioned within Galle fort. The room was great as was the terrace lounge area and pool. The service by the attentive staff was excellent at all times. We loved our stay.

Solo stay · For leisure

Courteous staff, a quiet, comfortable room and super catering in a superbly fitted out property made this a fantastic stay! Okay, so someone had stolen the TV (joking; there isn’t one in the room, but there is fast, free wifi), but if you want to be in the centre of the Galle Fort action, I reckon few properties can beat this one!

Super service, quality of food. The front desk staff and the hotel manager were top class, so were the other staff.
