The place is quite nice, in nature, with no noise. The owner and the staff are really amazing. They took care of everything smoothly. They provided an awesome, sumptuous breakfast. It is a quiet, old residence, and the rooms are big and clean. Everything turned out amazing.

The room is really big for 1 person. The family owns the property. Everyone is so friendly and I feel very comfortable. They even gave me wood apple juice. And made tea the next day in the morning but since I was rushing for the train back to Colombo I couldn't drink. Felt so bad. If you don't mind like me to listen to the train passes by go for it.

I recently stayed at the Nirosha Guest House and had a wonderful experience. The hotel offers incredibly affordable rates per night, making it a great choice for budget-conscious travelers. Despite the low cost, the quality of service and amenities exceeded my expectations. One of the highlights of my stay was the clean swimming pool.

It’s a very calm and clean accommodation in a nice green neighbourhood. The family is just lovely and makes you feel very welcome. We liked that it’s not located in the crowded fort but in easily walking distance. Despite the other comments it was super easy to find with google maps. The room was very comfortable, huge nice bed and a strong AC, we had the bathroom downstairs but it was not problem at all. We had the best breakfast in a month there (omelette, banana pancakes, coconut roti, fruit …). We would definitely recommend this place!

We had a beautiful room with a balcony here in this lovely homestay. The lady that ran it was really kind and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. In the heart of Galle so great for sight seeing too!

The photos don’t do this place justice. It’s so comfortable and beautifully decorated. Our room was very spacious with a walk-in shower. We loved Pirate, the owner’s dog, who kept us company morning and night. The rooftop area is perfect for watching sunset over the fort and watching locals play games of cricket. The location is in walking distance from everything in the fort. Wish we could have stayed longer!
