"This was like a piece of tranquil paradise in the middle of Galle Fort. It’s excellently located for exploring the fort and the building is beautifully preserved and offers excellent and spacious accommodation. We loved the room with a garden balcony, as we could watch and hear the world go by from the comfort of our room. The staff are so kind and offer many great tips for places to see inside the fort and were always in hand to make our stay extra special. Breakfast is very sizeable with many...
"I loved this hotel. It was old with lots of charm and located just across the street from the fort wall. It was next to Pedler Street with great shopping. Breakfast was really good with an amazing array of fruit. Overall, this is a great hotel. "

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay. The room, staff and views were amazing. This hotel is in a quiet location and has everything you could want in a holiday stay. "
"Great location inside the old fort convenient to many shops and restaurants. Condition is a little run down but was clean and the staff is very friendly."
"The property is very nicely renovated - but the staff really make the experience, Supun and his crew are some of the best hosts I have come across. Strongly recommend. "
"The Postcard is an excellent hotel for a relaxing holiday. It is literally on a lagoon with the water touching the property.

Galle Fort Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Very much enjoyed my stay at the Galle Fort Hotel. Beautiful rooms, highly attentive staff, great food and drinks. "
"This is a lovely historic house presented with style and charm, and high standards. The staff provide the best service and are very attentive. Setting is just gorgeous with visiting shy groups of purple-faced leaf monkeys and peacocks passing through along the high walls and trees from time as you sit in the cool palm filled courtyards. And added, an excellent menu with both traditional and modern mix so well presented and tasty served in a lovely restaurant-bar setting on the deep verandahs. "
"Lovely place, great A/C and very well located. The service from the staff was excellent - they were very kind to us when we accidentally overstayed our booking. Extremely grateful to be able to stay another night in this lovely place - would highly recommend for your stay in Galle!"
