Pros:

Struttura molto bella e tenuta abbastanza bene. Staff molto disponibile. Colazione fantastica :)

Cons:

La parete del bagno aveva un po' di muffa. Inoltre la stanza Queen Deluxe è di 19m2 ma sembra molto più piccola.

Mooie accommodatie op goede locatie
Pros:

De ligging is ideaal, rustig en toch midden in Galle fort. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk. Wij hadden 2 kamers geboekt en dat hadden ze zo weten te regelen dat de gezamenlijke buitenruimte bij deze kamers voor ons privé was om te gebruiken. Uitgebreid ontbijt.

Cons:

De bedden zijn niet al te groot (queen size bed dit staat ook in de omschrijving op Booking)

Fantastic boutique hotel in wonderful spot
Pros:

Fantastic location in the middle of beautiful Galle fort. Character filled rooms and surrounds, friendly and helpful staff and a wonderful breakfast. A spacious room with good air conditioning and bathroom and comfortable beds. The mezzanine works really well for families. Very good value for money.

Cons:

Nothing -only wish we could stay longer as we loved the hotel and really loved Galle-a wonderful place to wander, relax over a coffee or a drink, eat beautiful food and shop. Atmospheric town with very friendly people.

Right in the heart of everything!
Pros:

Parawa House is lovely, right in the middle of the old fort district. The rooms are beautifully decorated and furnished although the bathrooms could do with a deep clean / refurb. The staff were very welcoming and cooked an amazing breakfast! We really enjoyed staying here.
