Top National Maritime Museum Hotel Reviews

Fort Bazaar

10/10 Excellent

"The perfect stay to end our trip. Staff were wonderful and we loved the Social Hour at the end of the day. Rooms were large and beautiful and the pool was gorgeous. Highlight really was the staff though. Made the visit special."

Galle Fort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location and very traditional setting with fabulous attentive staff and great cocktails. Highly recommend staying here if traveling to Galle. Will not disappoint."

The Dutch Bungalow

10/10 Excellent

"This is my favorite place to stay. The building is beautiful, the staff are so friendly and helpful, and the location is perfect. I have stayed on my own, I recently came with my husband, and look forward to returning in January with my parents."

The Fort House

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel in a historical building - my room was spotlessly clean and was fully modern while also having loads of character. The staff were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was great - first time I’d been served an egg hopper! Delicious!"

Mango House

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay at the Mango House. Very central location and easy to walk everywhere on foot. My room was comfortable, elegant and great for 2 night."

Yara Galle Fort

8/10 Good

"I’d like to say thank you for the staff but the hotel needs to make sure about the manager’s approach with the whole crew. It’s not about working by pressure but work happy. It’s not about you have a perfect service but it’s about to see no pressure in the staff’s eyes. If any guest ask to perfection and the solution will be pressure, that’s clear to no work."

Le Grand Galle

10/10 Excellent

"This is a spectacular hotel that I would recommend for anyone. The pool is incredible, the rooms are spacious with great views and the staff is so kind. This property, location, and screams luxury. 10/10 experience."

Staff were 1st rate and helped make the stay special. I will be back !"

Cara Galle Fort
