Excellent rooms , but slightly small in size. Pool is quite small. Staff were super attentive and responsive. Food in general was excellent. The breakfast spread could have been better.

"High end design and dine in historic Galle"

10.0

Fabulous location right by the lighthouse but far enough away that noise was no issue. Really lovely design and decor that made me feel like I was in a Wes Anderson movie. Almost didn’t want to leave the hotel because it was so cute! Absolutely loved the rooftop and pool. Great breakfast. Top notch hospitality and accommodations. Would love to stay here again!

"sheer comfort, great service and fab location - a beautiful property!"

9.0

A beautiful property tucked away behind the fort, fantastic location - you can easily walk to all the main attractions and meander along the charming cobbled streets of the old town. Our room was a great size, very stylish with a lovely bathroom, seating area and a balcony - all meticulously clean and so comfortable. The rooftop bar / restaurant is lovely - great vibe at sunset and evenings. The staff are super friendly and so helpful & accommodating. We were offered daily bed tea which was a lovely touch.

just needs a couple of small teaks - nothing major - a light above the dressing table would be nice, plus a magnifying mirror in the bathroom - apart from that - the perfect stay! Cant wait to return some day

From the moment you arrive you are greeted with warmth and professionalism. The hotel is absolutely stunning, the rooms are beautifully appointed, with such attention to detail. The rooftop bar and pool are delightful, the view is stunning, the food is delicious but what makes this hotel special is the staff. They are warm, kind, friendly and so proud of where they work. Highly recommend wish we stayed longer
