Guest Reviews

• Susanne (10/5): -
• Ciaran (10/5): - The house is beautiful and very charming and welcoming. All the staff were lovely and helpful. It's in a very central location and easy to walk around to explore. The room was very clean and comfortable and air conditioning was available. Breakfast was incredible too!
• MOTOHIDE (6/5): ロケーションは良いが・・ - スタッフの対応は良かった。ウェルカムドリンクや朝食は満足できた。ゴール旧市街の観光にはロケーションは良い。 ロケーション的なものかもしれないが、スリランカで宿泊したほかのホテルと比較するとコスト的に満足度は高くない。
• maria katharina (10/5): -
• Olivia (7/5): Exploring Galle Fort from the inside - The breakfast was plentiful. We had Sri Lankan breakfast the first monring with fruits and pancakes. The second morning we asked to skip the dahl but they forgot the eggs.
• ashok (9/5): Superb - Self and wife stayed for two nights. Deluxe Double Room with access to adjoining private lobby was very comfortable. The staff; Samitha, Rumeshika, Lahiru, Madusanka and Niroshan, all were welcoming, cheerful and very helpful. We had three breakfasts. Though limited items were served in the breakfast, the qty was sufficient. It was delicious. We also liked the fresh fruit and fresh mixed fruit juice. Excellent location in the center of Galle Fort, next to Pedlar Street. All good. However, instead of serving Pan Cake in every breakfast, there could be some alternative for the guests, as per their liking, if possible. (Suggestion only)
• Jana (9/5): Amazing location, lovely stay - The location was amazing, the breakfast was also amazing. The staff was very helpful and kind. There was power outage and they brought me candles. There was good water pressure and everything was clean. I have to admit it was a little outdated than on the pictures. Still beautiful. It is quite small, but I was staying just one night, so it was ok.
• Reethika (10/5): -
• SUKHWAN (10/5): - 갈레에 가는 친구에게 이 숙소를 추천했어요 당신도 서둘러 예약하세요!
• Mary (10/5): -
• Sanne (10/5): Perfecte accommodatie - Fantastisch mooi gebouw en kamer! Alles is super schoon en netjes onderhouden. De mensen zijn erg vriendelijk en maken dat je je welkom voelt. De locatie is perfect, alles op loopafstand. Niets
• Roland (10/5): Elegant accomodation in Fort Galle - What an elegant place at perfect location. Beautifully situated in an old colonial building, very tastefully decorated and great staff. It’s perfectly located in the center of Galle Fort. You step out of the door and all restaurants and shops are just around the corner. The breakfast fast fantastic!
• Zoe (9/5): Lovely location with friendly staff - Lovely staff, good breakfast, comfortable beds, great location Nothing
• Clara (10/5): We will be back - Everything. The House is soo lovely. The Little courtyard very calming. The team was really nice with us. The girls loved the bedroom. Mezzanine style with kids bed up. Such a nice spot. Breakfast was great - available on the ground floor - home made
• Marie (9/5): Lovely guest house, well located inside the fort - Great location and comfortable room. To be ask to pay on arrival.
• ANDREW (8/5): Parawa House is 99% there to being 5 star - Location, breakfasts, friendly staff. I believe I was the only guest for three days. Sri Lanka, like most tropical Asian countries, is the best post dawn,, around 6.30am. Sitting in the quiet and cool with a cup of tea and watching the crows and squirrels going about their morning business is a delight. My front balcony room was always hot.(Even the balcony in the afternoon sun). A back room may have been cooler. No onsite laundry service or send out and return laundry service.
• Chrysoglou (7/5): - Breakfast was phenomenal, the staff were lovely and so helpful, rooms were adequately clean and location was centralised and easy to get around Aircon could be stronger to combat the heat during March and felt it was too expensive for what it was.
• Thorsten (8/5): Ruhiges kleines Hotel mitten in der Altstadt von Galle - Freundliche Betreiber, sehr gute Lage, gutes Frühstück, saubere und gemütliche Zimmer Internet war nicht besonders gut
• Stephen (9/5): Great location and comfortable rooms - perfect to explore the sights of Galle fort. - Parawa house is in a great location inside Galle Fort and close to all the main attractions. We loved the conversoin of the old colonial style merchants house into a hotel and the breakfasts were excellent. Not that keen on been asked to pay in advance for the rooms on arrival, pretty unusual and not that welcoming but otherwise any issues that we had were dealt with promtly and with a smile.
• Chanda (4/5): Did not work for us, sadly - Located in the old town and quiet area First day we arrived, tired and exhausted, there was a power cut around midday. We couldn’t use anything, so waited. Then we went out for a walk and came back still no power. Just sat in the dark in the corridor in front of our room ( power should have been back). There was no communication as to what we should be doing, then I asked for candles, we were given one candle. Then I asked if there is any water for shower, so luckily was able to have a cold shower. I then asked for more candles so we could move around as it was pitched dark. So we went for dinner. The lack of communication was an issue and we were treated as if we were visiting relatives, completely ignored while there was a power cut for hours. Then the next morning I was sitting outside in front of my room, there was a loud bang on the door, had no idea who it was, so didn’t open the door. Then a guy just appeared who was staying in the property next door. Although I don’t know why he has access to our property (which has a number of rooms). He was obviously drunk and asked if I was a worker (presumably because I am dark skin but I don’t have an Indian accent). So then I was asked lots of questions as if I was a staff, and was also asked to take messages to give to staff. I guess there was no contact details for the hotel. And we had issues with the A/C as well, which means people had to access our room. Just to say it gets very hot in the courtyard despite having a fan around. So, did not enjoy our stay but the issues are more about management really and not staff. Sometimes it is really difficult to communicate simple things with the evening staff.
• Lucy (8/5): Great location, great value - Parawa House was a lovely, somewhat modest hotel. Overall, Galle hotels seemed quite expensive so Parawa delivered for us in terms of cost and location (we really wanted to stay in the Fort). The owners seem to have a few properties so we ended up staying at another property around the corner (which was a bit of an upgrade as it had a little balcony with a view to the ramparts). We stayed 2 nights and the breakfasts both mornings were delicious - one day Western and the other day Sri Lankan. The staff were super lovely and helpful.
• Abdullah (10/5): Amazing - The room was perfect and also the staff were amazing they were always kind and helpfull and chatty. Thank you for being you guys🫶🏻
• Maria (8/5): -
• Janis (8/5): - Peaceful despite being right in the centre of Galle Fort. Generous breakfast, lovely courtyard setting, welcoming and helpful staff. Comfortable bed, much needed fan and strong air-conditioning! The drawback of the courtyard and plants are the insects that come with it. Not much that can be done I think.
• Peter (9/5): Excellent on all fronts - Great location in Galle Fort. Recently refurbished. Great breakfast selections throughout the stay. Staff friendly and eager to help. Hated having to say farewell and depart!
• Florian (8/5): -
• Jolanda (9/5): Heerlijk verblijf in het fort. - Fijn hotel in de oude stad. Een heerlijke tuin om tot rust te komen. zeer vriendelijke mensen die ook erg behulpzaam zijn. Prima ontbijt.
• Goda (7/5): Its okey, but overpriced - It was in the heart of Galle old town, parking is near, but in the street, not their own. It was clean, friendly staff. Rooms size is enough, big shower, cozy. We paid ~300€ for 3 nights and it is overpriced, because the hotel is so small, it feels like renting a room in the house, there is no hot water in the morning, there are no water bottles in the rooms, there is just a 2 bottles with chlorinated water. Breakfast is the same, just making eggs in different ways, same fruits.
• Paz (10/5): -
• Ahila (8/5): Lovely stay at a bed and breakfast in the Galle fort - Lovely bed and breakfast accommodation on a quiet, residential street off one of the main streets within the Fort. Lovely greenery in sunny courtyard with comfortable couches to relax in. Room was also comfortable. The breakfast was good. The coffee was terrible and the lack of tea making items in the room. Given that the fort only starts waking up after 8am, I could not find a single cafe that was open and offered tea.
• Madeleine (10/5): Fabulous - The staff are so attentive, kind, and always up for a chat. Breakfast and facilities were fabulous, made for a fantastic and memorable stay in Galle. Nothing!
• Madeleine (10/5): Would definitely return is visiting the fort - Fabulous location super clean and comfortable and very welcoming staff Nothing
• Christine (9/5): -
• SHENG (10/5): 非常满意！ - 在加勒古城的一个巷子里，游览古城非常方便。房间面积很大，打扫的很干净，设施非常完备。房屋隔音不错，又因为是在巷子里，因此很安静，不会觉得吵。房东和工作人员都很和善，离开的时候帮忙叫了突突车去火车站。早餐无论是英式还是斯里兰卡当地口味，都很丰盛。
• Angela (9/5): -
• Jörg (10/5): - Sehr gute Lage im Galle Fort, sehr aufmerksame und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter Frühstück ausreichend und lecker Das Zimmer groß sind komfortabel Alles bestens
• Peter (10/5): - Great location, staff, room and breakfast
• Cécile (10/5): - Everyone was very caring and responsive. The breakfast was delicious and fresh. The room decoration is beautiful as well as the bed was very comfortable. Beautiful inner garden with the possibility to be comfortably seated in front of the room. Very pleasant
• David (10/5): A wonderful couple of days exploring Galle Fort from charming Parawa House. - Lovely old house with bundles of charm. Our room was at the front with a long balcony (with fan) to enjoy. The room, bed and bathroom were all generous, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was really tasty and the specially made egg hoppers were a perfect end to a very enjoyable stay in Galle Fort. Staff were welcoming and friendly and made every effort to help. The property itself is close to the Fort's sea wall and the centre of the atmospheric old town, so plenty to see and walk around with many restaurants, bars and shops. We will definitely stay at Parawa House next time we visit Galle. Nothing. All was great.
• Bradley (7/5): Pay now - Good location, comfortable rooms Wifi didn't work in the rooms. On arrival the welcome is weak but the request for payment is strong. And when you don't pay immediately you get a letter from 'accounts' saying you need to pay immediately or you'll have to find other accommodation. I could go on but I will end with this. Would we stay here again - no. Would we tell friends and family to stay here - no.
• Patricia (7/5): - Herzlicher Empfang, aber einige Komfortmängel Das Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich, der grüne Innenhof sehr schön, und das srilankische Frühstück liebevoll zubereitet – auch wenn die Auswahl am Nachbartisch größer wirkte. Weniger angenehm war die Klimaanlage, die sich nicht regulieren ließ. Wir haben sie mehrmals nachts an und ausgeschaltet. Mit nur einem dünnen Laken war es dann entweder zu kalt oder zu warm, was zu unruhigem Schlaf führte. Die Matratze war mit einem rutschigen Bezug versehen, dessen Haltegummi dazu gerissen war – hier wäre nur einekleine Reparaturen nötig gewesen, was dem Personal sicher aufgefallen ist Im Bad fiel uns schwarzer Schimmel auf, es gibt keine Lüftung: Die Fenster sind undurchsichtig und vertikal drehbar – entweder man öffnet sie und blickt direkt auf frühstückende Gäste (die auch hereinschauen können), oder man hat gar keinen Ausblick. Zusätzlich gab es Mücken im Bad. In der Nacht hatte mein Mann eine Kakerlake auf dem Arm – bei einem älteren Gebäude erklärbar, aber dennoch unangenehm. Für 90 $ pro Nacht ist das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis grundsätzlich okay, wenn man einfache Standards erwartet. Mit etwas mehr Sorgfalt bei Instandhaltung und Hygiene ließe sich der Aufenthalt deutlich verbessern.
• Ann (8/5): Overall lovely with a very nice breakfast and lovely staff. - We liked the garden. The location. It was lovely and clean. Well maintained. A very good shower. The room was too small for two people. The furniture took up space and wasn’t functional which meant there was nowhere to place two sets of luggage making the space even smaller.
• Miroslava (8/5): -
• Konstantinos (10/5): Tolle Lage und super Gastgeber. - Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Super Lage. Zentral aber trotzdem ruhig. Leider kein Kühlschrank im Zimmer vorhanden.
• Shreya (1/5): - Nice and helpful staff Broken toilet. Both seat and toilet were broken. I thought I would fall sitting on the toilet. Room near the breakfast/sitting area/lobby. Too much noise.
• Dietmar (9/5): -
• Dietmar (10/5): -
• Geoffrey (10/5): Most enjoyable peaceful and relaxing stay. - Very stylish small hotel inside Galle Fort. Thevstaff were all very friendly, helpful and efficient. The breakfasts were a joy Wifi was a little weak at times
• James (9/5): An absolute gem of a choice in Galle Old Town - There’s a lot to love about this place. Location: right in the heart of the Galle old town action but the street is quieter and calmer than many. The rooms are really tastefully furnished. Beds are comfy, WiFi is speedy and the building oozes charm. The team are a delight. Welcoming and friendly, headed up by the lovely Samitha. I also loved how guests were welcome to use the big fridge in the kitchen area rather than having mini fridges in rooms which pump out heat themselves. Nothing really. This was one of the nicest hotels we stayed at in our three week Sri Lanka trip. If I had one comment it would be to ask guests how they like their breakfast eggs, rather than just making them, as everyone has their own preferences.
• Catherine (10/5): Perfect location, brilliant breakfast and excellent service from art the wonderful staff - The property was beautiful and clean and the staff so friendly and welcoming - couldn’t fault anything Nothing
• Misaki (8/5): - 夜遅くにチェックインでしたがスタッフの方々は温かく迎えてくれました。ウェルカムドリンクも美味しかったです。部屋はファミリールームでエアコンもありとても快適でした。朝食もとても美味しくボリューミーで満足です。 全体的に少し古い建物で小さな蟻がたくさんいました。またファミリールームが思ったより狭かったです...。
• John (10/5): Parawa House is Great! - The hotel was lovely. The room was excellent, with very colonial styling. The staff were very helpful and friendly too. Nothing.
• Jane (9/5): Wonderful stay in beautiful property with fab staff - We had a really lovely stay at this property in the heart of Galle fort. The house is beautiful and very sympathetically decorated. We were a family of four and had loft room with two single beds upstairs for the kids which suited us perfectly. Breakfast was delicious and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Highly recommended. Only downside for us was the aircon was a bjt noisy
• vaibhav (10/5): -
• Alyson (10/5): Beautiful stay in B a beautiful city. Five star ⭐ - Our room was on the ground floor at the end of the garden of this beautiful old house. We had a table and two chairs outside and a wooden bench sofa beside the lawn. It’s was extremely civilised. The room itself was fairly small but lots of storage, great a/c and a lovely bathroom with rain shower and hot water. The bed, pillows and linen were all lovely too. The staff and particularly the front of house ladies were so kind and attentive. Nothing too much trouble. The breakfast both mornings was really good, fresh fruit and a cooked hopper with pancakes. It’s right in the centre of town but set back so no problem with noise at all. Beautiful place and a lovely stay😃 Nothing to dislike this place is a gem
• Paz (10/5): - Es war eine wunderschöne Zeit in Parawa House. Das Hause ist eine Oase der Ruhe mitten in das lebhafte Leben von Galle. Herrliches Sri Lanka Breakfast. Sehr freundliches Personal, sehr hilfsbereit. Wir haben es sehr genossen.
• John (10/5): Fantastic location , lovely staff and super breakfast - Location was fantastic. Staff were so kind and friendly - we wanted for nothing !! Best breakfast we have had in Sri Lanka! Fantastic juices! Room was super comfy, very clean and stylish! It was like a little paradise ! Nothing !
• Viacheslav (5/5): Ничего особенного - Перед домом красивая зона для завтрака. Нормальный завтрак В номере пыльно (в том числе сетка от комаров), маленькая площадь, кран шатается. Соотношение цена - качество отрицательное. Не получилось оплатить проживание банковской картой. Нет сушилки для вещей
• Bipesh (8/5): Excellent place, would stay again if we are in Galle - Great location, lovely property. Takes you back in the Dutch colonial times through the architecture and design of the house. Enjoyed sitting in the yard and have their excellent breakfast. Think for the price the facilities should have been spot on, bed side table lamp bulbs were not working. Thought these are some things that can be improved but not necessarily major.
• Mathias (10/5): -
• Alison (10/5): Very friendly staff, the property is in a great location with shops and restaurants right on the doorstep. - The rooms are large and the bed was very comfortable. Great staff and location.
• Michael (9/5): -
• Elizabeth (10/5): - Fantastic location in the fort. Comfy and clean room, brilliant breakfast No
• Luis (9/5): explore the Fort by foot! - Beautiful interior, clean rooms. Perfect to explore the Fort by foot! Nothing
• Helen (10/5): The efficiency, courtesy and professionalism of Samitha and her Team enhanced our visit to Galle. - Excellent location within The Fort, kick-started daily by innovative Sri Lankan breakfasts (especially the hoppers & pancakes with fresh fruit !) Our room was ideal in all respects, especially drying off on the veranda after a refreshing shower ! Having a kettle and fast charging facilities were a bonus.

• Brent (9/5): Lovely elegant place to stay within the fort. - Great location, elegant and beautifully styled. Very welcoming and attentive hospitality. Would definitely stay here again. Despite being within the fort it was very quiet at night. The wifi was a bit flakey but that’s not unusual for many places here in SL.
• Isabelle (10/5): -
• Marika (10/5): -
• Ben (10/5): Great heritage property. - Beautiful property. Everything walkable within Galle Fort & train station only 15 minutes walk away. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby. Very friendly staff. Very nice room & balcony with modern large bathroom. Nothing.
• MayFal (3/5): - Once I went to Parawa House I was informed they are unable to accomadate me since the room was unavailable because the guest didn't leave. How is that my problem since I paid the FULL AMOUNT UP FRONT before I came to the property. Then they sent me to some other place.
• Vuong (9/5): Excellent place, definitely willing to stay again - Friendly staff, great breakfast, central location, safe, good air conditioning, good bathroom Internet in Deluxe Queen room did not work (too far from router). Was fine everywhere else!
• Carandish (8/5): - חדרים ממש יפים מיקום מעולה מים חמים במקלחת ריח של ביוב במקלחות מקלחות עם עובש
• Andi (8/5): -
• Madhurima (8/5): - Great location and helpful staff.
• Janita (9/5): Great location - Amazing location, lovely room with outside space to sit and admire the garden. Bathroom was nice and spacious with hot water. Staff were lovely too, definitely worth a stay. Wi-Fi didn’t work in the room, but did outside so not so much of an issue
• Tanya.K (10/5): ชอบมาก ทำเลดี สะอาด อาหารเช้าอร่อยมาก พนักงานเป็นกันเองทุกคน - ชอบทุกอย่างที่นั่น ไม่มี
• Arachaya (10/5): - The hotel is beautifully decorated, as good as the city it's located in. Breakfast is delicious. The stairs to the mezzanine are a bit steep, making it a bit dangerous to walk down to the bathroom at night.
• Ramon (8/5): -
• Joseph (9/5): Lovely boutique hotel - Lovely decorated rooms, good shower and bed Nothing
• Ursula (10/5): Ideales Hotel für Galle und Umgebung zu entdecken - Geschmackvoll möbliert. Nähe Shops, Restaurants dennoch sehr ruhig. Ausserordentlich nettes Personal. Leckeres Frühstück Nichts
• Julia (8/5): Zentrale Lage in Galle und freundliches Personal - Sehr nettes Personal, zentrale Lage in Galle. Sehr leckeres Frühstück, hübsche Einrichtung. Handtücher und Bettwäsche waren zwar gewaschen, konnten jedoch grundsätzlich erneuert werden, da diese leider nicht mehr den allerfrischesten Eindruck machten. Das Moskitonetz müsste ebenfalls gewaschen werden.
• Natia (9/5): Thank you - Beautiful boutique hotel in a nice location. Friendly staff. Good breakfast (if you are ok with relatively limited choices).
• Anjali (10/5): Don’t change your style, Parawa House! - So tastefully furnished, incredibly clean, courteous and friendly staff, lovely simple breakfasts. Totally recommend this place.
• Uljancic (6/5): -

• Samira (9/5): - The rooms were clean and comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed being right in the heart of Galle Fort and would recommend it.
• Michelle (8/5): Good location and breakfast - Location in Galle Fort WiFi was intermittent and not good in the room - I think this may be an issue in Galle fort in general
• Alexandra (8/5): - Super friendly staff. Excellent Sri Lankan breakfast on the first day of our stay - the owner explained what it was and how to eat it with the various curries. Good sized room and bathroom with air conditioning. A small terrace outside as well as lovely communal space downstairs. Location right in the middle of Galle fort so easy access to everything.

• Rinad (9/5): Amazing - We wanted to stay in galle for two nights. Me My husband and my one years old baby. They arranged a cot free of charge. The room was good , nice abd we had a space outside the room. Hot water, ac, wifi, hairdryer… the breakfast was good they are generous, you can ask if you want to add something more. But they could have added more options like yogurt. The staff are amazing so friendly and nice. I would definitely come again. None
