This was our second stop upon arrival in Sri Lanka, after a night and day in Colombo. It has been my and my daughter's top favorite hotel and stay, because mainly of its colonial and historical charm. A wonderful place, led by a female manager, which is to be underlined, a very nice lady. The staff is local, the attention to detail as well (!), the food and breakfast are super copious, generous and fresh, there is a nice à la carte menu, and the pool is wonderful. My daughter enjoyed it! We were lucky to be and visit Galle during the week-end, so we didn't feel the over-touristic crowd and atmosphere, since many Sri Lankan were strolling along the city walls, visiting. This is definitely a very touristic spot, the many shops attest this, but there are a few very nice and niche places. Stay min 2 nights, and if you can and want you may tour the nearby beaches and towns and wildlife reserves from there, this is possible. We've also enjoyed our train ride from Colombo to Galle, which is not too long and absolutely wonderful in the lush coastline greenery. We loved our room, its setup, the geometry and decoration of the hotel, the beautiful purple lotus flowers and the local touches everywhere. Chic. It pleased my eye every day!

Fantastic location in the fort on a quiet side street. Best breakfast in the entire trip and my gluten free friend even loved it! The staff were so kind and helpful. The view out over the fort from the balcony was great. A historic hotel with modern showers and every convenience. The coffee outside my room first thing was a lovely touch! I can’t even describe their signature Long Island iced tea it was so tasty and interesting. They helped us sort out a taxi to the airport in the middle of the night. The plunge pool and the Koi carp gave it great character.

Galle Fort

This Dutch colonial fort is Galle’s most popular attraction, and for good reason – a stroll along this UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases streets brimming with old-time charm and stunning sea views. It takes an hour or two to walk along the fort, with plenty of opportunities to stop at cafés, museums and shops along the way.

    Lovely but quite a touristy trap.

    Lovely but quite a touristy trap. The exorbitantly priced food was what I was aghast about. About 5 to 10 times more expensive than most restaurants and eateries elsewhere in Sri Lanka. Also, most eateries were not as clean as in the rest of SL. The town is great to walk through but lack of fairly priced eateries with good food is a clear deterrant.

    Serendipitous is a great word to describe this place.

    Serendipitous is a great word to describe this place. There's aways something pleasantly surprising around the corner. Be it an influencer trying to get a good shot without the crowds or families walking the ramparts.

    My recent stay at Moi Galle Fort was truly amazing. The hotel's unique blend of colonial architecture made for a memorable experience. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the location within the historic Galle Fort area was another plus point for the hotel. I particularly enjoyed the delicious breakfast they served .Overall, I highly recommend Moi Galle Fort to anyone looking for a memorable vacation in Galle

    Small boutique hotel with only four rooms. Exceptional customer service and absolutely beautiful tranquil rooms. Located within the wonderful Galle Fort, across from the ramparts and the sea. The staff here were the best in Sri Lanka (which is a big call because most of the staff we met were really good) and the breakfast was superb. Would highly recommend staying at this property.

    Fantastic breakfast, with fresh juice, fruit, eggs and coffee included. Spacious room and beautiful decoration of all the facilities. Staff super friendly during our whole stay. The hotel opened a few months ago so everything is clean and new. 5-10min tuk tuk ride to the Galle fort area with lots of restaurants and shops. We truly loved our stay!

    The hotel is in a quiet area but the facilities near the hotel are poor. The better restaurants are not on the main road and the distance from Galle Fort is quite far to walk. The breakfast was basic (toast, omelette and fruit) and when I said I refer Sri Lankan breakfast this was provided the next days.

    Everything. The size and comfort of the room, which was perfect for a family of 4. The staff, who were courteous, friendly and very helpful. The location, in the heart of Galle Fort. The food, and we had great Sri Lankan breakfasts every morning. The price, which was very reasonable given the quality of the room, breakfast, service and location, especially compared to what I saw from other hotels with a similar colonial aesthetic.

    Beautiful boutique hotel in the nicest street of Galle fort. Very nice sense of aesthetics and decoration, and the rooms are comfortable and quiet. The shower had great hot water with pressure, which is rare to find in Sri Lanka. The staff was very friendly and tried at all times to ensure a best experience for us.
