Top Galle Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

Fort Bliss

10/10 Excellent

"Clean & spacious room/bathroom. Imran was courteous and helpful. Sunil made a delicious breakfast according to our likes. Very convenient location to go for walk on the Rampart and view sunrise/sunset. If I visit Galle again I would definitely stay at Fort Bliss."

The Bartizan

10/10 Excellent

"The staff and management made us feel welcome and comfortable. The view from the room is amazing. Absolutely a perfect location for a visit to Galle."

Mango House

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay at the Mango House. Very central location and easy to walk everywhere on foot. My room was comfortable, elegant and great for 2 night."

Yara Galle Fort

8/10 Good

"I’d like to say thank you for the staff but the hotel needs to make sure about the manager’s approach with the whole crew. It’s not about working by pressure but work happy. It’s not about you have a perfect service but it’s about to see no pressure in the staff’s eyes. If any guest ask to perfection and the solution will be pressure, that’s clear to no work."

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"

Fort Bazaar

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