Luxurious clean hotel room, amazing brekkie, calm place
Pros:

Even better than in the pictures, we warmly recommend this hotel. We got upgraded and had the master bed room, which was amazing and has a massive bathroom. AC, mosquito nets, etc work well. Another couch or place to lounge in the AC area wouldn’t hurt.
Breakfast contained fresh fruits, yoghurt, granola, string hoppers, two curries and freshly made mango juice - can’t complain. Even a cup of tea or coffee is brought to your room in the morning

Cons:

Coffee is instant coffee, no locally roasted, despite it being largely available.
No couch in the bed room, hence you can only „chill“ on the bed or in the lobby (which has no AC)

Pros:

El edificio colonial es precioso, con una cuidada y elegante rehabilitación.
Ubicación excelente en el Fort.
Con mosquitera, ventilador y aire acondicionado.

Cons:

La habitación de dos camas es un poco pequeña y justa de espacio, sobre todo teniendo en cuenta que al no tener armario (solo un galán) debes tener las maletas abiertas en el suelo (los apoya maletas colocados no permiten abrir maletas más grandes que las de cabina).
El aire acondicionado y el ventilador hacían mucho ruido, lo que dificulta el sueño si eres de fácil despertar.
El agua de cortesía es agua filtrada, que no embotellada, así que si eres extranjero y te cuidas de beber agua por cuestiones estomacales, no puedes hacer uso de ella.

Genieten was het hier!

We hadden hier een fantastisch verblijf. Mooi gerenoveerde koloniale woning in Galle Fort, dichtbij alles. Prachtige kamer, heel vriendelijke gastvrouw en overheerlijk ontbijt in de mooie eetruimte. Ook een mooie binnentuin.

Cons:

Het bed was wat aan de kleine kant.
