Beautiful colonial building with nice gardens. The rooms are beautiful and the staff are so attentive and helpful. Was the perfect choice after a busy 10 days travelling around Sri Lanka. They upgraded me to a better room which was very kind.

I loved my stay. It is wonderfully relaxing - an oasis - but in reality you are only a few mins from beachbars, tourist attractions etc. But it is perfectly quiet and relaximg. Amazing infinity pool and some rooms have their own too. I loved it. Delicious food, attentive team, spa for massages, mani, pedi, facials etc. It is the perfect place to unwind and reset. The villas are big and spacious, great bed, huge shower, day bed too, desk and chair, minibar - everything that you need. Incredibly reasonable for everything that you get.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The design was beautiful with a great attention to detail. The hotel grounds were well-maintained and inviting, with a nice clean swimming pool. But what really stood out to me was the staff. They were all so caring and considerate, going above and beyond to make sure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

My partner and I stayed in several hotels on our trip round Sri Lanka and the Prince of Galle was our favourite! Sedesh and the team made us feel so welcome, that this wonderful little boutique hotel felt like home for the three nights we stayed. The setting is superb, with all that Galle Fort has to offer within a short walk. The building and rooms have been beautifully restored, with tasteful attention to detail that pays homage to its historic setting. The dining area set around the tree and planted courtyard stunning, and we loved cooling off in the plunge pool at the end of hot day. The Five Star Breakfast absolutely lives up to its name and the iced teas are incredible. During our stay we both also enjoyed a relaxing 1hr massage at the hotel, which was a lovely way to finish our stay. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be staying at the Prince of Galle again when we return to 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.

quaint and charming place, with a relaxed pace of life -- besides the Galle fort, peace tower, handloom factory, silk showroom, and spice garden, there lots of good places nearby with treks and forest trails-- mahamura, sinharaja, yala, ,kanneliya-- boon for nature lovers ! watch out for the leeches though !

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 vibe that Galle fort shares during anytime of the day is marvelous. It is a super child friendly place with amazing shops and places at every corner. It has the ambience of a unique blend between antiquity and modernity filled with aesthetic taste of rich culture and art. Seems its potential is still untapped fully. Loved the eateries and little cafes designed with elegance and charm. It showcases the serenity of a typical European port city with Dutch colonial architecture.

We originally had one full day planned at Galle but we ended up being there for longer. We didn't need to be there any longer than one day. The walk around the Fort was lovely but there were not really many good shops to see and it was a little touristy in the Fort. Unfortunately they still let cars and motorbikes and Tuk Tuks in the street of the Fort which was difficult to navigate. Not really much to do in Galle except for the Fort.

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.

I have experience an amazing hospitality from all the staff members ! The room was large and confortable, with a beautiful view over the city. The hotel is located in a peaceful area, few minutes away from the city center, train station, bus center, and the beautiful Fort of Galle. You can find many comodities around, restaurants and supermarket, otherwise the hotel can cook delicious Sri Lankan cuisine too.
