Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (6/5): No WiFi.... - Nice and beautiful hotel but no WiFi connection inside the room. They are willing to change me into another room but that room is smaller and the WiFi is not in a good connection too.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location, friendly, caring and attentive staff. Lovely pool! Our room was clean and spacious with a comfortable bed...
- Andreas (10/5): Worth staying - Clean, nice hotel with a very comfy bed. Hotel is located in the middle of Galle Fort close to the main road padlar street.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff was friendly and helped us arrange tuktuk. The room was clean and spacious but the aircon was very noisy on the first night, needs maintenance
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Lovely colonial property in the middle of the Fort, Art Deco theme is continued throughout. Didn’t eat there as breakfast seemed very expensive; there is a huge variety of eateries nearby, from trendy cafes to high class dining, to small local shops. Suite was comfy, although the bathroom separated bedroom from living area, so it wasn’t one large space. Didn’t use living area. No dark curtains over nets so light let in in morning.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Good good good! - Huge heritage, colonial style room. Good location, walkable around the fort. Friendly and helpful staff. Definitely will recommend!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This is a really beautiful Art Deco Hotel which was faultless in its presentation. Our room and bathroom were huge, clean and beautifully decorated. The swimming pool is also lovely. The staff were wonderful - always friendly and helpful. We have stayed in many hotels on our travels over the last four months and this was the first to surpass our expectations in practically every way. One of the most beautiful hotels we have ever stayed in - highly recommended.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Ten out of Ten 🙂 - Beautiful bedroom in a stunning Art Deco building. Lovely pool. Attentive and friendly staff. Great location. Would definitely stay again
- Shane (10/5): - Great location right in the middle of the fort nice rooms, nice hot showers - enjoyed the pool - staff were very helpful even had umbrellas for us to use.
- Alanna (10/5): - The staff were lovely and helpful. The location was amazing. The pool was excellent.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful place with charming art deco features, great location and helpful staff.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The manager is a disgrace, with no understanding of hospitality. Shouted agressively at me and our driver after not agreeing to pay for my driver's accomodation despite emailing us to say they would beforehand. Ruined our 1st night in Sri Lanka in what would otherwise have been a nice hotel.
- Shannon (10/5): Great stay in Galle Fort - This is the second time we stayed at Deco on 44. It is a lovely hotel in the center of Galle Fort. The rooms are large and either face the pool or have an attached large balcony. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food is good!
- 米太 (8/5): - 房間很大，很安靜，床非常舒適，泳池有點細，但感覺很悠閒，食物也美味，但價錢有點貴，總括我們在這裡渡過了愉快的假期。
- Brigitte (10/5): - Great hotel right in the middle of Fort Galle, funky architecture, excellent breakfast. Pool was nice for those hot afternoons. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby.
- ann (10/5): Great one night stay - Great one night stay in Galle Fort. Junior suite room very spacious and comfortable. Great little pool to allow you to cool down at the end of the day . Great breakfast and the staff even made a juice from the wood apples we bought locally. Lovely Deco hotel ideally located for wandering around the fort area, restaurants shops, museums, etc.
- Marie (8/5): Trevligt hotell med fantastisk frukost - Trevligt hotell mitt i Fort. Tyst och bekvämt. Trevlig pool på innergården med solstolar och gratis handdukar. Trevlig personal och superb frukost.
- Torgil (8/5): - Room was nicely decorated and large, bathroom a bit dark. Pool was nice and best of all was the wonderful breakfast on the patio.
- Jerem (8/5): - Nice hotel, friendly staff, room is large enough and bathroom was renovated. Ideally located for a short trip in galle
- Norifumi (8/5): 旧市街の中心にあり観光には大変便利。 - 到着でのウエルカムドリンクとかスタッフの対応が良い。
- Sahampathy (10/5): - Excellenet location in the centre of Galle Fort with a fairly large pool.
- RO (8/5): 中心部にある素敵なホテル - チェックイン時ちょっとした誤解が生じましたが、中心部にあり便利なホテルです。 朝食も食べきれないほど出て、プールもあり子ども達も喜んでました。
- ulf (8/5): Klassische Stadtvilla mit Pool in super Lage - Sehr schoene alte stadtvilla in perfekter lage. Wir sind ins deco on 44 wegen des pools der lage und des charmes gegangen. Pool war super zur abkuehlung zwischendurch. Lage ist einfach perfekt um galle fort zu entdecken. Restaurants gibt es unzaehlige in der umgebung. Der flair des hotels ist wirklich sehr schoen und klassisch. Personal super nett und professionell. Fruehstueck war sehr. Lecker. Sri lanka option waehlen! Der preis ist der lage geschuldet. Ich wuerde eher 3 als 4 sterne geben aber die echten 4 sterne Nachbarn kosten auch mehr
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely atmospheric old hotel right in the middle of Galle Fort.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good for a night or two - Good location in Galle. Hotel has nice breakfast. Rooms are ok, very basic but clean. Power turns on and off quite a bit.
- Shane (10/5): Good value stylish hotel in the centre of Galle - This is a fabulous small hotel in the middle of Galle Fort in an art-deco stytle building. The rooms are comfortable and well-kept and the wifi is useable. The beds are very confortable and there is good water pressure in the shower. There are DVD players in all rooms, and there is a library of around 200 DVDs, including lots that you might actually want to watch! Breakfast is very good, and the all-day restaurant menu has lots of choice. The only slight negative is the tinny musac that seems to be played in the restaurant area most of the day, but happily its not audible anywhere else.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Deco - It is beautiful from the outside. Room’s a bit bleak, pool could have been cleaner. Great service the first day, nonexistent the second day. Also why can’t we have a real bathroom door? Perfect location though.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Charming but faded Deco hotel. Staff keen to please but a little reminiscent of Fawlty Towers. Great location.
- Sue (8/5): Nice hotel in the old fort town - A pleasant stay for a few nights in this lovely city. Very comfortable beds, fresh linen and towels daily with the option of further clean towels late afternoon. The rooms were clean enough although I don’t think our floor was ‘wet’ mopp d during our stay. Breakfast was ok and we were very grateful for a very late breakfast on our first morning due to a late arrival the night before. Staff were helpful and pleasant. The pool, whilst in a confined space in the middle of the hotel next to the kitchen was lovely to cool off and chill out after a day of sightseeing.
- lumpini (8/5): アールデコのおしゃれなホテル - 朝食はフルーツたっぷり。スリランカ朝食も良かった。町が停電になっても発電機で大丈夫でした。しかしエアコンから水が出るハプニングあり。
- Liz (10/5): Great Stay - Great Hotel in great location. Staff very helpful & the American breakfast was amazing. Would recommend this hotel without hesitation.
- Verified traveler (10/5): A romantic big house. Small and beautiful. - Located in the center of the Fort and walking distance to all viewpoints we visited. This boutique hotel was converted from a big house, getting us a glance of the history of the city. Our room (it's called Sun) is large, with a lovely balcony, big windows and enough sunshine. And I also like the golden wall in our room, it feels like staying in the history. Our friends stayed in room Moon and it was a nice room too. Rooms are in better conditions than many larger/famous/modern hotels in Sri Lanka.
- Melda (10/5): Historic feeling - Location is amazing and the art deco house is really beautiful. We loved it. Actually it was pretty clean except the pool.
- Shankho (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Galle - The hotel is situated on the main tourist junction in lighthouse street just off pedlar street. It has a small garden where you can have your meals in the open. The great thing is that you can talk to the chef personally to customise your dishes. They also have a swimming pool which is perfect for unwinding after a walk in the hot Galle fort
- paul (8/5): Established hotel in Galle - Good hotel in Galle. On tour of Sri Lanka you should book at least one or two nights in Galle Fort itself. For the city visit not the hotels outside. At 0715 enjoy kids going to school and 1400 back home. A parade you cannot miss with the historic town as the decor. Seemed to us that other hotels in Fort are equally nice. Walking around we saw some newer stylish lodges too. Staff is pleasant and professional. The driver is outstanding. Book him for transfers.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Fantastic hotel with fantastic staff
- Verified traveler (6/5): - ゴール旧市街のど真ん中にあり、とくにラグジュアリーさを求めなければ満足のいくホテル。 室内は清潔に保たれていて、天井が高いせいか広々とした印象を受ける
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent! - Very nice room and a perfect location. A good place to enjoy the fort. The pool is a little small but I think you don't need it in Galle.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great experience. - A lovely Art Deco property with spacious rooms, excellent location and good service . A highlight of our time traveling in Sri Lanka. Staff were very attentive and it was a very comfortable stay .?
- RUMMY (10/5): Very Comfortable stay in the Heritage town - It is an old dutch house presently owned by a rich jeweler. They have 7-rooms in a 2 story building with a small pool. Bathroom is spacious but TV channels need to enhance with international choice. Hotel also needs to have a female staff in their one room spa.
- Ravindra (8/5): Great Location - Overall the room was spacious and comfortable, and service was very good. The Sri Lankan breakfast is excellent. A few minor negative things to note. The shower screen could be 30-50 cms longer to avoid flooding the bathroom when having a shower. The room door was glazed (including a glazed panel above door) which let light in at night when trying to sleep. We also had a few problems with the cable TV, both technical issues and unavailability of some channels, as we wanted to watch some of the Olympic events and the test cricket.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We loved the Deco on 44! Great boutique hotel with wonderful service, right in the heart of the fort area. The breakfast was outstanding! Highly recommended.
- Melvyn (6/5): Nice enough but not for us - Though the hotel was very nice (though somewhat overpriced) we felt the service was too much. There was always someone trying to do everything for you and it got a bit oppressive.
