For those seeking an evocative base from which to explore Galle’s beaches, temples and tea plantations this fascinating 17th century property is the perfect colonial meets Ceylon chic bolt-hole.  Set on a narrow street in Galle Fort where auto rickshaws and cycles vie with the occasional linen upholstered ambassador, the Galle Fort Hotel conjures up a lost era when Somerset Maugham blazed the traveler’s trail. Think whirring fans and cocktails on the terrace served by serene sarong clad staff.

Celebrated in acres of press, this award-winning hotel is loved most for its simplicity and evocative charm. It is impressive without trying to impress. Galle Fort Hotel offers accommodation in 12 impressive rooms.
