LE JARDIN DU FORT - GALLE, hotel in Galle

LE JARDIN DU FORT - GALLE IS AND OLD COLONIAL HOUSE set 1 minute from Fort Beach. Staff on site can arrange airport transfers. The accommodation offers free wifi.

I enjoyed staying at Le Jardin du Fort - a quirky boutique hotel located in the heart of Sri Lanka’s stunning coastal fort of Galle. The property is wonderfully styled in a French baroque aesthetic, and of course, quirky puppets to match the restaurant named Puppets downstairs! There’s such playfulness to the spaces here - my bedroom was huge, with a real sense of faded grandeur, and thoughtful amenities provided such as tea, coffee, milk, sugar and a mini fridge with free bottled water. The bathroom was fantastic too, powerful water pressure, a surprisingly difficult feature to find in many accommodation options in Sri Lanka. The team at Le Jardin du Fort were incredibly hospitable throughout my stay, eager to help, and always with such warmth. It was a pleasure staying here!

Galle Fort

This Dutch colonial fort is Galle’s most popular attraction, and for good reason – a stroll along this UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases streets brimming with old-time charm and stunning sea views. It takes an hour or two to walk along the fort, with plenty of opportunities to stop at cafés, museums and shops along the way.

    Serendipitous is a great word to describe this place.

    Serendipitous is a great word to describe this place. There's aways something pleasantly surprising around the corner. Be it an influencer trying to get a good shot without the crowds or families walking the ramparts.

    We liked everything about Yara Galle Fort. The historic building, the location, the size and style of the room, the delicious and generous Sri Lankan breakfast and the friendly and helpful staff. We could walk everywhere from the hotel and it was quiet and comfortable at night. We thought it was great value for money for the quality of the accommodation.

    This was our first visit to Sri Lanka. We booked last minute and could not prepare this holiday. The hotel is run as a bed and breakfast, which was exactly what we like. The owner and staff were super friendly and helpful to make our little trip very special and helped create amazing memories. Galle fort, actually a walled little town, has beautiful restored colonial houses turned in very good restaurants, hotels and shops. Beaches are close-by for sun bathing and surfing.

    Our time at the Sun House was a great experience. We stayed in the Dumas Suite, which was very comfortable and quiet. The staff are very attentive and friendly and try very hard to look after guests. The location is perfect, in a peaceful location surrounded by nature but close to the sites in Galle Fort. We had a lovely time at the hotel and will definitely stay again when we return to Sri Lanka.

    Deltora Vila was one of our favorite stays in Sri Lanka. The interior is beautiful as well as the pool. The room was very nice and comfortable. Breakfast was super tasty and you could choose between 3 types of breakfast. Location was not so central,but 5-8 minutes with tuktuk from the hotel to Galle Fort. They aslo provided us with1 free tuktuk drive to Galle Fort per day! Staff was super super friendly and helpfull. We had an amazing time and we would recommend this place to everyone!
