Top Galle Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

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

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."

The Bartizan

8/10 Good

"The room was very nice however it was incredibly dark and needed either extra lighting or some focused lighting to read documents. I feel that they were trying to get a " Vibe ", however with all the problems of the world at the moment with war in the middle east we really missed a TV to keep up with the news."
