This is not a fancy hotel. It’s a guesthouse in the best possible location, run by nice people and with soft, clean linens and towels. Worth it for the sunset views alone.

This was a comfortable stay in an ideal spot overlooking the city rampart. The owners were welcoming and helpful. The ensuite was a little basic but we were comfortable enough and enjoyed the stay. Very good value for money. Our thanks to the owners.

Basic Guesthouse in ideal location

Basic guesthouse right by the fort wall and close to everything in Galle fort. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great. It could do with a lick of paint and refurbishment which were make it a much nicer place to stay.

C’est un tout petit hôtel (4 chambres). Il ne faut pas s’attendre à une chambre parfaite, mais le site sur le frond de mer, le charme de la maison et la gentillesse des tenanciers compensent largement les petites imperfections.

古い住宅の２階部分を改装したゲストハウス。旧市街の城壁に面して建っているので、城壁越しにインド洋がよく見えました。屋上は宿泊客に開放されていて、チェアが並べてあってさらに眺望良好でした。旧市街内の宿は値段が高めですが、ここも場所代込みのお値段なのでやや高いです。それでも部屋は清潔で快適だし、スタッフも親切。旧市街のどこにも歩いて便利に行けるので、１泊だけの滞在としては値段も納得しました。朝ご飯は隣接する食堂で出されます。8時からと言われましたが、行ってみたら準備が整ってなくて３０分待たされました。チェックアウトの朝に午後の列車で発つことをスタッフに話したら、若いお兄さんが切符を駅まで買いに走ってくれました。おおむね気持ちよく過ごすことができた宿でした。

Location is great, but that’s all for the price.

The best part about staying at this small in is it’s location, central and right on the fortress, however, dont expect a view from your window, just your front door. The room was tidy with very good air conditioning, however, the shower wasn’t exactly warm and a bit confusing to use. It’s 2 and 1/2 star accomodation, and what i paid i thought was quite expensive for this standard.

ゴール旧市街の突端、インド洋を望むゲストハウス

1泊しました。場所は最高です。ゴール旧市街の突端近くで、目の前に石垣があってインド洋が見えます。ただ普通のホテルというよりは、むしろゲストハウスに近い感覚です。建物は古い木造で、二階のテラスに面して数部屋あるようでした。行ってみたら受付に誰もおらず電話したら、ちょっと出かけていたようですぐに戻ってきましたが、とくに悪びれもせず。よくも悪くも緩い感じで、それを楽しめる方にはとても良いと思います。 部屋はエアコン付きで、シーリングファンもついています。それでも夏は暑いかもしれません。冷蔵庫はありませんでした。お湯は小さな給湯器で沸かすタイプでしたが、一人で浴びる分には問題ありませんでした。屋上は草屋根で眺めは最高です。隣のレストランは同じ経営で、朝食はそこで取りました。卵、トースト、果物と簡単なものでしたが、おいしかったです。

Perfect location and great service!

Boutique guesthouse with rooftop terrace overlooking the sea, perfect for watching the sunset over Galle Fort. The rooms are basic but clean with everything you need and the service was excellent. The staff could not do enough for us, and I highly recommend asking for a Sri Lankan breakfast (beware, it’s spicy!). The hotel location right on the rampart of the fort is perfect, and the sound of the waves at night is all you will hear as it’s very quiet. Galle itself is a beautiful little town with lots of great eateries and shops. You can while away your days here, or head down the coast to some of the fantastic beaches that are only half an hour away. Loved our time at the Rampart and would definitely stay here again.
