    We spent 3 nights in Old Fort Galle, enjoyed the architecture, the restaurants/bars, history and swimming. Our host arranged a walking tour guide and this is a must to know the history. We are a senior couple.

    Coming from a young Country (New Zealand circa 1840), but aware of Sri Lanka's varietal Dutch, Portuguese, British, Colonial Histories, I found the Buildings left behind by the long ago passing presence of these Nations, amongst the reality of present day life within the confines of the Galle Fort, an alluring, appealing and enticing cocktail of fortuitous personal experience, and would encourage all who might be so disposed and contemplating a visit, to definitely list Galle as a Priority, Not to be Missed...

    Our stay in the Galle Fort area was an ideal way to unwind after the hustle and bustle of days in Sri Lanka. It is an historic location with a mixture of dutch and English history with great restaurants and is an easy walk to get to anywhere in the Fort.

    I visited Galle for the Literary Festival and not as a normal tourist so it would be unfair to judge it as a tourist destination. However it is a historical town with beautiful colonial architecture, enchanting hotels and a lively atmosphere and with many bars, restaurants and plenty of shops. Probably one of the unique places on the island.

    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.

    Nice, well appointed rooms, AC worked very well and the bed was comfortable and huge! Amazing staff, everyone was so friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Udaya who works in the hotel and also drove us from Colombo in the hotel van, and to a safari in Yala. He made us feel extra special, and is a great asset to the hotel. Breakfast was also lovely, huge selection and portions of Sri Lankan or western food. Location of the hotel is great! Right in Galle Fort center.

    We had a wonderful stay at Villa White Queen that still is one of our best stays in Sri Lanka during our 3 month travel. Chamara’s attentiveness, together with the facilities really made for a personal and luxurious boutique experience. Even though the hotel is situated outside of the old town the stylish 5 min TukTuk ride just added to the experience. we have already booked our next stay here together with family and friends.

    Beautiful accommodation in natural surroundings. Like staying in the jungle while being just a short hop from Galle Fort and loads of nice beaches. Breakfast was excellent every morning, both western and Sri Lankan options. Nicolas and his team could not have been any more helpful, 10/10 for the staff. Constantly milling around with a smile on their faces as standard! Would stay here again without any hesitation.

    The rooms are really big and comfortable, we had an amazing sea view and great hot water in the showers which isn’t very common in Sri Lanka. The gym is pretty nice has just enough and is pretty clean. The pool is great and heated we really enjoyed swimming with a sea view The location is just a short walk away from the Galle Fort, so we got to spend a lot of time there and enjoyed the area and location.

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.

    Small House Boutique hotel is a hidden little Oasis in Galle Fort. Comfortable rooms and some nice outdoor seated areas when you want to relax. Great breakfast. Which included fresh fruit, great coffee, toast, eggs and pancakes. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Plenty of walking around in the fort can be done but also a quick tuk tuk to the local beaches as well.

    The stay at Villa Yehinsa was wonderful. The location is great, right in the middle of the old colonial part of Galle close to everything. The owner of the hotel was great, very helpful and he made sure our stay was good. The breakfast was amazing, the choice of Sri Lankan breakfast, and the classic one. The room was spacious and had all the amenities we needed.

    The hotel is comfortable and has nice style, with good sized rooms. It's in a quiet location and the staff are very lovely and helpful. The hotel is a 5 minute tuk tuk ride from Galle Fort (25 min walk along busy road) which means it's nice and out the way. Be warned that tuk tuks from the Fort will try to charge too much, it should be no more than 500 rupees.
