Olinda Galle is a small, super charming, very well located hotel just a 20 min from Galle center. The rooms are very spacious and cozy, the baths which were built to incorporate nature are a true privilege experience. The delicious breakfast, served on the terrace area outside of the room is also a highlight . The owner and host is super kind and attentive. Every minute of our stay was truly special. C’est digne d’un hôtel 5 étoiles

We celebrated a special wedding anniversary with a stay at Sun House. A beautiful heritage colonial mansion, tastefully renovated as a boutique hotel. Gayan and team could not have been more helpful. We were treated to a beautiful room, the food was excellent, cocktails were unique, and absolutely everything is made in house by the team. Beautiful pool on the grounds and a pleasant 10 minute walk into the fort (or a tuk tuk can be arranged). Would highly recommend staying here.

It is wonderful stylish villa as expected. Located in the heart of this historic and iconic city, we enjoyed strolling to see the sunrise and sunset and exploring the beautiful shops. The staff were very nice and helpful. Mr. Azwan arranged a car charter. It was actually trustworthy because the driver is smart enough with a beautiful TOYOTA car. If you have any plan to do that, please ask the hotel they arrange you with a best value.

Wow ..one of the better places we have been over the years literally around the world. And especially in Sri Lanka. Hence starts with a super refreshing fresh welcomr juice you can chose from the menu yourself. Check in fast and earlier possible than the official check in time. Whole hotel new and with a pretty classy design. Also infrastructure bat a rather very high level. Very cosy rooms with a super bathroom. The staff really extremely friendly, fast and helpful. Especially to be mentionned Amien at the reception. The breakfast simply delicious with good cafe or tea included (not always the case in Sri Lanka). Yet almost too much since two big rounds based on your menu preferences 🤪. Also the dinner delicious for a bit higher price (yet better food than a highly rated restaurant closeby). Super well located in the very center in Galle fort yet rooms all silent (on the other side of the road try tonic spa..very qualitative spa rooms and charmy colonial infrastructure with excellent massage for a fair price). Even so over 150 usd the night..its great value for money👍. Definitely a place to stay☺️!

What a gem of a place to stay. From the moment we arrived Kumudu and team couldn’t do enough for us. A taxi transfer from Colombo airport to Galle was easily pre arranged and meeting the driver was slick. We stayed in a superior deluxe room with jungle view for 4 nights. Facilities great and outdoor shower lovely. There was the added personal touch of having breakfast every morning served on your own terrace. Lush planting made for secluded spaces and good to have a pool too. Although the location is slightly out of the fort it’s easily accessible using a tuk-tuk and it’s only about 40-50 minutes walk if you’re feeling energetic. Special mention needs to go to Eran, the Olive’s on site tuk-tuk driver. It was so easy and reassuring to be able to message and he’d be there to pick up/drop off within minutes. It’s also possible for him to take you further afield. We did a round trip to Koggala lake, a turtle sanctuary, tea plantation and saw stilt fishermen. An absolutely wonderful introduction to Sri Lankan hospitality and we can’t wait to return.

    The vibe that Galle fort shares during anytime of the day is marvelous. It is a super child friendly place with amazing shops and places at every corner. It has the ambience of a unique blend between antiquity and modernity filled with aesthetic taste of rich culture and art. Seems its potential is still untapped fully. Loved the eateries and little cafes designed with elegance and charm. It showcases the serenity of a typical European port city with Dutch colonial architecture.

    We originally had one full day planned at Galle but we ended up being there for longer. We didn't need to be there any longer than one day. The walk around the Fort was lovely but there were not really many good shops to see and it was a little touristy in the Fort. Unfortunately they still let cars and motorbikes and Tuk Tuks in the street of the Fort which was difficult to navigate. Not really much to do in Galle except for the Fort.

    Galle is a beautiful coastal city that blends colonial charm with tropical vibes. Walking through the Galle Fort feels like stepping back in time, with its cobblestone streets, vintage buildings, and ocean views at every turn. The atmosphere is peaceful yet full of character, with cozy cafés, art shops, and friendly locals. A must-visit destination for anyone exploring southern Sri Lanka!

    This is a cool city to visit. The cobblestone streets inside the fort take you back centuries & add to the fantastic historical charm of this town. There are great restaurants around Peddlers St and plenty to do exploring the fort & the nearby beaches. Unfortunately, our stay here was too short & we were unable to explore further outside the fortress walls. Save that for next time.

    We loved this small cozy hotel which was really worth the money. The pool was clean and wonderfully framed by vegetation. The monkeys jumped around in the trees and we got wonderful pictures of them. The 5 minute tuktuk ride to Galle fort, a beautiful area with lots of sights, eateries and shopping was free. At the hotel they had an unusual number of breakfast options. Everything from Sri Lankan breakfast to different pancakes and waffles and fresh fruits. The beds were comfortable and the area around the hotel was very quiet!

    I spent two weeks exploring Sri Lanka & in Galle I stayed two nights in the delightful & perfectly located, small & homely, classic style Arches Fort Hotel. The staff under the direction of the the very personable Manager Wasantha made me feel welcome - a lovely environment to be based in to explore this fascinating historic old town (& don’t miss the delicious Sri Lankan style breakfast!) I highly recommend Arches Fort Hotel for your visit to Galle.
