I like everything about this place. When I checked in, I got ice lemon tea as a welcome drink. It made me feel so good. The staff were very friendly and very well taken care of the clients. I got the room on the second floor on the nature side which was very quiet. The room was so nice and super clean. Bed, pillow, kettle, A/C and TV. The breakfast was delicious. They served buffalo curd with honey, I like it very much. The location is perfect. Highly recommend!

The host is personable and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. There's a onsite tuk-tuk, which is convenient for getting to Galle and Unawatuna.

    This is a beautiful heritage building that is well maintained. The location is superb, facing the western ramparts of Galle Fort, perfect for sunsets, and just around the corner from one of the main thoroughfares. The room was very spacious and tastefully decorated. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Sri Lankan options for breakfast were delicious. Perfect for those who like unique, boutique places that make you feel more like you're staying at someone's villa than a business.
