Top Galle Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

The Dutch Bungalow

10/10 Excellent

"While the amenities are limited, it's also not the type of place where you go to steal all of the mini shampoos. The Dutch Bungalow was the one place we stayed at the longest in Sri Lanka - 4 nights on a 3 week trip. It was also our favorite place to stay. Even thought we stayed at many places with a breakfast buffet, this was my favorite breakfast of all. Such an intimate and friendly setting and a superb location. We were able to explore the Fort area over the 4 days to the point that we knew where most things were and felt to comfortable looking everywhere. In the morning, I went out at sunrise and walked the walls of Galle Fort and saw everything waking up and starting. Each day was special and revealed something special about SL. The staff were outstanding and very friendly and helpful with anything and everything. We were sad to leave to move on to a large hotel where we were attending a large event. This was our happy place in Sri Lanka!"

Fort Bliss

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great experience at Fort Bliss. The front desk officer Imran was friendly and gave us a welcome drink. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was also nice. The Wi-Fi was uninterrupted. Breakfast was scrumptious and prepared with care from Chef Sunil. It was the best decision to choose Fort Bliss Hotel."

The Fort House

10/10 Excellent

"Great location inside the fort walls, so close to shopping, dining and historic sites. Staff very so nice and helpful, and the breakfasts, which were different every day and were freshly made local food, are probably the best breakfasts we've had in any country when travelling overseas. Beautifully restored building with tasteful period style decor. Good a/c plus a ceiling fan"

Mango House

8/10 Good

"Staff were lovely, the breakfast was exceptional and location perfect. The beds were comfortable. We had a family room so no window to the outside apart from a small window looking over the foyer and the climb to the second bed very steep. Unfortunately there was no hot water and the information provided was that it would not be repaired for several days and applied to the whole property. Staff seemed unconcerned when we complained and a partial refund (about 1/5 of room cost) was provided. Fortunately we had only booked 2 nights but other than hot water it was lovely."

Fort Bazaar

10/10 Excellent

"Very stylish, great location, best food in Sri Lanka"

Mrs Wijenayake's Beach Haven Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"The room is soo clean and is in a prime area and all the amenities are easily accessible. The staff manager is super helping. Will definitely recommend the place."

Thambili House By Edwards Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful 2-night stay at this property; the staff were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. From the exiting hustle of the fort, the quiet and calmness of the property is just what is needed. "

Le Jardin du Fort - Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a lovely boutique hotel in the middle Of Galle forte, walking distance to everything, the manager and the staff were outstanding, always willing to help and go the extra mile….our rooms was very clean, cool and comfortable…would recommend Le Jardin"

The Dutch Boutique

8/10 Good

"Brilliant location, this immaculately clean restored home makes a lovely hotel. The rooms are tiny tiny but comfortable. Bathroom a generous size and good shower. Breakfast can be ordered in, they weren't providing their won when I was there. The man who was looking after the place was very helpful. You get a key to your room only, the front doors are open all day and I was always in early at night. Had to ring bell once during the day when he was out but all OK getting in otherwise. Only strange thing, no rubbish bin in the room."
