Blue Beach Galle, hotel in Galle

Set in Galle, 500 metres from Bonavista Beach, Blue Beach Galle offers accommodation with a fitness centre, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

Blue Beach Gall 8 out of 10 We stayed two nights at Blue Beach Gall. It was a nice hotel. The staff was very friendly, including Kalpani at the reception and the maintenance team. I requested a room upgrade, and we were given two rooms with no additional costs. I recommend sea-viewing rooms. Nice comfortable beds (I would rate the bed firmness 8.5 of 10). The rooftop bar/restaurant is a great place to be in the evening. The choice of food is limited if you are looking for Asian/Sri Lankan food. Otherwise, there are plenty of items on the menu to choose from. The hotel shows signs of ageing, but with a little TLC, it can return to its prime.

Asiri Yoga Retreat, hotel in Galle

Featuring an outdoor swimming pool, a garden as well as a terrace, Asiri Yoga Retreat is located in the centre of Galle, a few steps from Boossa Beach.

Lovely property by the sea. Don’t stay in low season - too far from town, nothing open nearby to eat etc … definitely no yoga was happening so only stayed one night as great taxi cost to get there and then back into town. Didn’t realise air con was extra cost (not even offered to me - I was told the air con was not working, no remote in the room). Couldn’t sleep as the fan was not cool enough ….

Green Casa, hotel in Galle

Green Casa is situated in Galle, 1.7 km from Galle Fort. Free private parking is available on site. Each air-conditioned room comes with a flat-screen TV.

An unexpected stay! We had to replan our trip last minute due to a cancellation on a connecting flight. We had plans to get to Kandy / Ella, but they were all scuppered. But we found ourselves in Galle, where we had wanted to visit but knew our initial plans would not afford. So as they say, every cloud.... The Green Casa is a beauty to behold. A 150 year Dutch merchant villa that's been redesigned - keeping the old features in tact, with nostalgia added from an age long gone and the feel of the old colonial days. There has been a lot of respect in maintaining the history of the architecuture. Old pictures taken by the owner bring to light the history of communities in Sri Lanka. We arrived to Mohan, who gave is the warmest Sri Lankan. He looks after the property and the guests there, and made us feel so welcomed. We arrived to welcome drinks, and felt so spoilt during our 2 night stay. They somehow knew that we had a difficult trip to get there, and even if they didn't, we felt they knew. Thank you to the team at Green Casa! It was the most beautiful stay!

    Enjoyed the Fort and the Tea Plantation visit, but didn't have enough time to explore further. A lot of tourists in this area, and a lot of shops catering specifically for them. Had some great food and experiences while there.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit. The town is small and some shops are repetitive, with the same items for sale, but there are a few unique shops and restaurants which make a visit worthwhile. Sunsets are beautiful; walk along the top of fort walls. Take a tuk tuk to the local fish market just outside of town for vibrant local life and walk back. We stayed overnight which made the visit more relaxing.

    This Building is 400 years Old and in all our Travels of 30 years we have never lived in such a Colonial Building. The staff compliments the story behind this Colonial Masterpiece and they were Excellent. Service, Quality, Food and Drinks. It was a very Personalized experience living here because the hotel only has 11 rooms. We booked the Suite which was very spacious, Comfortable and Beautiful.

    This is a small friendly homestay. The location is perfect for Galle Fort, in the middle of the busiest tourist street with shops and restaurants. It's a 5 minute walk to pretty much anywhere in Galle Fort from the guesthouse but it's not noisy. Breakfast, served on the balcony, is a choice of the usual eggs, fruit and toast, with juice and tea/coffee. Or you can pre-order Sri Lankan breakfast which we did on day 2 and it was great! Hoppers and eggs with daal, sweet and sour fried onion and chilli sambol. Delicious!

    Everything! Our stay was amazing, we were looked after so well by brilliant staff, and the accommodation is interesting and lovely. Breakfast was fantastic, the Sri Lankan hoppers were our favourite. Hotel organised a great tuk tuk driver too who took us around Galle, we really enjoyed our stay, they even made us a packed breakfast for our early morning train to Columbo - really kind and thoughtful. Thank you so much for making our holiday so special

    It is really central, but quiet, and inside the fort. If you are staying one night in Galle, this is so far the best hotel we have seen. The employees are super nice, and the food they serve is typical from Sri Lanka, but you also have an option for continental breakfast if you want. The room was spacious, and it was nice to wake with monkeys on the balcony.
