LOVED it here! Gorgeous colonial era property with spacious rooms, beautiful courtyard and a restaurant on the veranda to watch the world go by. Free afternoon tea between 3-4 and cocktail hour 5-6, were amazing. Also offer a free walking tour of Galle Fort, which was super informative. The little touches like a turndown and ‘push for champagne button’ added a touch of luxury. Staff were also super helpful and friendly.

From the pre arrival stage, Dilani provided promptly assistance, ensuring a valued upgrade to the Superior room. The arrival experience was warm and welcoming. The property itself is stunning, with a beautifully designed interior that perfectly blends elegance and heritage of Galle Fort. The high wooden ceilings, intricate details, and tasteful decor create a serene and luxurious ambiance. Tharusha and Kavindu elevated the experience with their exceptional hospitality, ensuring it’s personalized. From start to finish, everything was seamless and heartfelt. A must visit place in Galle Fort.

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☺️!

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.

Lovely but quite a touristy trap.

Lovely but quite a touristy trap. The exorbitantly priced food was what I was aghast about. About 5 to 10 times more expensive than most restaurants and eateries elsewhere in Sri Lanka. Also, most eateries were not as clean as in the rest of SL. The town is great to walk through but lack of fairly priced eateries with good food is a clear deterrant.

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.

Right in the midst of Galle Fort and very clean and comfortable. The hotel breakfast is traditional Sri Lankan food. It was delicious and the staff were very helpful with explaining how to eat it. The staff were all lovely and also helped with day planning and recommendations.

This is a beautiful hotel with 2 gorgeous pools and direct beach access (with turtles!). The staff are exceptional and knew what I needed before even I did! It is easy to access Galle Fort by car/tuktuk and there are shops/restaurants around the hotel too. The hotel bars and restaurants are high quality. The rooms are perfect, great showers, comfy beds and see views! The rooftop gym has amazing views and is a must visit! A true 5 star experience.

Dam , the host is very helpful and hospitable.He gave information on sightseeing at the Galle Fort.He transpoted us to and from the railway station and to the Galle Fort free of charge.He even accompanied us to shop for food during our late arrival from the train station. The apartment is by far the best lodging we have at Sri Lanka.It's spacious with cooking facilities. I really recommed to stay at Dam's place if you are at Galle.

Beautiful small hotel- amazing pool. Extremely friendly owner and his family and staff run it. Go out of their way to help with anything you want to do during your stay. Great recommendations for restaurants and activities. Boutique hotel at great price. By far the nicest place we’ve stayed in Sri Lanka and we’ve been staying in meddle to top end places. Highly highly recommend. 5 min tuk tuk into Galle Fort.

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!

Really stunning property in Galle Fort - maybe the fanciest place I've stayed in Sri Lanka, it felt like a 5-star hotel. Clean, modern, comfortable room with really nice furnishings. The rooms look out over a beautiful garden/courtyard. The breakfast was also delicious! This place is on the pricier side but definitely worth it.

One of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed at! Wonderful staff, stunning property and beautiful clean rooms - we stayed in one of the villas as a family of 4 and were so comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, esp the Sri Lankan one. Less than 10 min drive to Galle Fort and we also enjoyed going to the Turtle Sanctuary nearby. We loved our stay so much we went back for another night at the end of our trip. Will be recommending to anyone we know going to Sri Lanka.
