This is the place where you want to stay while visiting Sri Lanka. You spending your holiday in the history of this country. A spice traders house built in 1860 and completely renovated recently with lots of taste. The rooms, the living and dining areas, garden with the pool, everything is so beautiful and it feels it’s your own private home. Also breakfast and dinner was amazing and very tasty. The manager and all the staff are extremely helpful and super friendly. As it’s just a bit outside of Galle Fort, it’s super calm. But only a short stroll to reach the harbour with the local fisherman and the old town by foot. If not, a Tuk Tuk ride takes 5 minutes. Everything was just perfect.

As we returned to our daily routines, it took us a while to revisit(unfortunately ony in our memories)this wonderful place and share our opinion. Ultimately, we highly recommend it, but more on that in a moment. We found the hotel somewhat by accident, searching among many on Booking.com. We loved the view from the private pool in our room, as well as the view of nature from the hotel pool. In reality, we saw exactly what we saw in the photos on Booking.com. The location was excellent, and for those who are apprehensive about it, I should add that we traveled with our 10-year-old son and had no problems getting to and from the hotel in the middle of the jungle, even in the evenings. We could always count on the helpfulness of the hotel staff. The location is picturesque, the cottages are of a high standard, and the hotel staff keep them impeccably clean. The hotel staff are very helpful, the food is excellent, and the chef cares about the customer and is also able to adapt to any situation (allergies, child). We tried many restaurants, and this one proved to be one of the best in terms of food quality. A place where you can relax surrounded by nature, which is right at your fingertips. A true haven for those seeking peace and complete relaxation (with extras like a swimming pool and massages—these are available upon request) and superb cuisine, surrounded by the sounds of nature. We highly recommend this place and will happily return in the future. We thank the staff for their dedication and smiles.

I enjoyed my stay in Galle.

I enjoyed my stay in Galle. The place was very clean and the environment was relaxing. It’s a good location to explore the city and enjoy the beach. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the beds were a bit old and already broken, so it wasn’t very comfortable. If they fix that, it would be a much better stay. Overall, a nice experience and good value.

Plenty to do in Galle, well worth visiting.

Plenty to do in Galle, well worth visiting. Just DON’T use the White Queen, as the manager will make it very difficult for you to get any redress if there’s a problem (I was charged for a five night stay instead of Four, and only realised after payment had been taken-silly me!) Enjoy your stay, just elsewhere in Galle.

Absolutely filthy city.

Absolutely filthy city. Litter everywhere, all around the fort was dirty and had rubbish , plastic waste and broken bottles strewn around and piled up in bags. They should revoke the UNESCO rating for the fort so the government clean it up. It was months of rubbish or like a field after a festival and not just rubbish after a weekend. There were just a few rubbish bins around the ramparts but they were overflowing and broken By far the dirtiest city we have visited in Sri Lanka

The Galle Fort in Galle is my absolute favorite place — it has a vibe of its own. It’s completely safe at any time of the day, even for solo travelers. There’s so much history within the Fort walls to learn about and beautiful architecture to explore. The hosts at the restaurants and hotels inside the Fort are amazing, and the service is truly of international standard. The view of the Indian Ocean from the Ramparts is simply breathtaking. There are plenty of restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines and dishes to try. Outside the Fort, I highly recommend visiting the beaches at Unawatuna, just a few kilometers from Galle City Centre. While you’re there, don’t miss the Japanese Peace Pagoda at Rumassala — you won’t regret it! Yaddehimulla Road in Unawatuna has everything from surf schools and restaurants to gem shops, gelato spots, international cuisines, and everything in between. For quick bites and essentials, SPAR Supermarket at Galle City Centre is your go-to place. You’ll find tasty rice and curry meals, ready-to-eat options, mosquito repellent, basic medical supplies, snacks, good-quality fruits, and other everyday necessities.

If you're going to Galle, stay inside the Fort. Lots of charming little villas and boutique hotels where you can drop your bags and go walkabout, soaking in the colonial charm and enjoying the relaxed vibe. Great food options, live music and incredible sunsets.

The staff was welcoming, helpful, and friendly. The hotel is located in a prime spot—just a short walk from the Galle Clock Tower, popular restaurants, museums, the lighthouse, and even bathing spots. Galle Fort is a stunning location in Sri Lanka, and staying here gave us easy access to everything it has to offer. Breakfast was a simple yet satisfying English breakfast, served with a fresh fruit platter and coffee. And all of this came at a very reasonable rate. Until we meet again, Thank you, Sunset Fort Galle!

Perfect for relaxing. The view from the hotel was amazing. We had the suite, and it was the right choice. Exceptional with the pool and the view. Nature all around you. You can see monkeys in the morning and evening. (Being your binoculars) The staff was super friendly and helpful whenever needed. The sri lankan breakfast was very yummy. Even though remotely in the nature if you want to go to galle it is still only 20 min by TukTuk or 5 min to the beach.

Lovely little hotel with a perfect location in Galle Fort. We booked for one night without planning on sleeping here, instead storing our bags and using the room to rest/freshen up ahead of a late evening transfer up to Colombo for our flight home. The wonderful owner made this a memorable last stop in Sri Lanka with warm hospitality and great recommendations. We would highly recommend staying here!

I stayed here 18 months ago on my last trip to Sri Lanka. The location in Galle Fort is perfect for the restaurants and for walking around the interesting narrow cobbled streets.. A lovely little boutique style hotel with a friendly manageress.

This is a beautiful hotel. Right in the middle of the fort, surrounded by great restaurants. Staff are brilliant and the Sri Lankan breakfast superb. Would highly recommend staying in this hotel if you visit Galle.
