Secret Garden Galle Fort, hotel in Galle

Featuring a garden, terrace, bar and free WiFi, Secret Garden Fort is situated in Galle in the centre of the fort, 400 metres from Dutch Church Galle.

The property is on peddlers St. which is my favourite street in Galle Fort. Its a cosy placed tucked away with quick access to the ocean and other locations. I really enjoyed the comforts of my room. The room and bathroom was very clean. It stayed in the room that goes up the spiral stairway near the reception. The staff and owner are super nice and helpful. The breakfast I had was wonderful. I'd definitely come back here. Though I was a solo traveller..I observed that families were there enjoying the place too

Asiri Yoga Retreat, hotel in Galle

Featuring an outdoor swimming pool, a garden as well as a terrace, Asiri Yoga Retreat is located in the centre of Galle, a few steps from Boossa Beach.

Lovely property by the sea. Don’t stay in low season - too far from town, nothing open nearby to eat etc … definitely no yoga was happening so only stayed one night as great taxi cost to get there and then back into town. Didn’t realise air con was extra cost (not even offered to me - I was told the air con was not working, no remote in the room). Couldn’t sleep as the fan was not cool enough ….

Green Casa, hotel in Galle

Green Casa is situated in Galle, 1.7 km from Galle Fort. Free private parking is available on site. Each air-conditioned room comes with a flat-screen TV.

An unexpected stay! We had to replan our trip last minute due to a cancellation on a connecting flight. We had plans to get to Kandy / Ella, but they were all scuppered. But we found ourselves in Galle, where we had wanted to visit but knew our initial plans would not afford. So as they say, every cloud.... The Green Casa is a beauty to behold. A 150 year Dutch merchant villa that's been redesigned - keeping the old features in tact, with nostalgia added from an age long gone and the feel of the old colonial days. There has been a lot of respect in maintaining the history of the architecuture. Old pictures taken by the owner bring to light the history of communities in Sri Lanka. We arrived to Mohan, who gave is the warmest Sri Lankan. He looks after the property and the guests there, and made us feel so welcomed. We arrived to welcome drinks, and felt so spoilt during our 2 night stay. They somehow knew that we had a difficult trip to get there, and even if they didn't, we felt they knew. Thank you to the team at Green Casa! It was the most beautiful stay!

Niyagama House, hotel in Galle

Niyagama House is a peaceful retreat located on the highest point of an active tea plantation. It features 7 exquisite rooms with poster beds, a luxurious bathroom and free Wi-Fi.

My one-week stay at Niyagama House was fabulous with the high standards the facility offers, the green with all those bird sounds in the morning mesmerized me. It was also so relaxing for my body and soul doing meditation & yoga with Elke every day, nourishing myself with the great food from the restaurant. I am looking forward to visiting that 'paradise on earth' again.

    This is the best place in Sri Lanka if you just want a relaxing and/or indulgent holiday. So many things to do. Perfect for a honeymoon or honeymoon-like experience. There's a touch of culture/history. Use as a base if you want more adventure. I did a Lanka cooking course :-)

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit. The town is small and some shops are repetitive, with the same items for sale, but there are a few unique shops and restaurants which make a visit worthwhile. Sunsets are beautiful; walk along the top of fort walls. Take a tuk tuk to the local fish market just outside of town for vibrant local life and walk back. We stayed overnight which made the visit more relaxing.

Breakfast was fantastic, the Sri Lankan hoppers were our favourite. Hotel organised a great tuk tuk driver too who took us around Galle, we really enjoyed our stay, they even made us a packed breakfast for our early morning train to Columbo - really kind and thoughtful. Thank you so much for making our holiday so special

    A beautiful decorated boutique hotel in a good location away from the busy part of the fort but walkable all around. All the staff were very friendly and always happy to help with anything. It was good to see the hotel is making an effort to reduce the use of plastic - water bottles and toiletries. Sri Lankan breakfast was very filling and tasty.

    From the minute we checked in we knew we had made the right choice for our stay in Galle. The hotel is beautiful and spotlessly clean and we enjoyed the hot showers too. Breakfast is available for £4 and is exceptional. Definitely one of our favourite hotels so far during our stay in Sri Lanka. Highly recommended.
