Pros:

The esthetics, quality of service and perfect location. By far the best of my 4 hotel stays in Sri Lanka, at similar prices.

Pros:

L'albergo è semplicemente super. La struttura è inserita nel contesto di una casa coloniale di una bellezza rara, ricca di fascino e curata nei dettagli. Le stanze sono impeccabili e pulitissime. Un ringraziamento speciale va allo staff, che si è dimostrato incredibile e sempre attento a ogni nostra esigenza. Menzione d'onore per la colazione: super sostanziosa e perfetta per iniziare al meglio la giornata a Galle. Struttura assolutamente consigliata!

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Galle
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at N5 Middle Street in Galle. The hotel is absolutely beautiful, with a charming design and every detail carefully maintained. It is a peaceful and elegant place that made us feel at home from the moment we arrived.

The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with a great selection of fresh and tasty food. It was the perfect way to start each day.

We would also like to give a special thank you to the staff, who were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. They went out of their way to help us charge our electric tuk tuk, and their friendliness and willingness to assist made a real difference to our experience.

We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Galle and would happily stay here again.

Other than the above, the rooms were clean and breakfast was good. The workers were polite.
Pros:

The breakfast had a great spread. Rooms were clean, looked nice overall. The male workers were really nice, friendly, and helpful.

Cons:

I wish the mngement had called me to inform that there was a power failure from 2pm to 5pm.
And also informed us to arrive at the alternative address for time being so that the taxi dropped me there. Clear communication will be appreciated.

I would've liked a plug point in the bathroom near mirror to use hair dryer.
