小屋精品旅館(Small House Boutique Guest House)

Wil je in 'fort' zitten, dan kan de locatie bijna niet beter. Rustiger zijstraatje van één van de hoofdstraten. Leuk en redelijk pitoresk hotel. Binnenplaats wat nauw, maar toch ook weer redelijk knus. Balkonkamer aan de voorkant is leuk! Schoonmaken kan wat beter. Restaurantje direct links aan de overkant was helemaal niet onaardig.

We stayed here for a few days over New Year. After an initial issue with the room allocation, which was down to the booking not the host we settled in with one half of the family in the main villa and the other in the B&B a few doors down. All the rooms were clean and had what you needed in there and very authentic to the style of the area. Location wise, it's ideally located for exploring Galle, and we found the whole area very safe and welcoming. Breakfast was traditional Sri Lankan which was lovely. As we were a large group they ensued we had a table to ourselves. The staff were brilliant happy to help with bags, brollies and anything. But the star of he show was Samitha, she helped us organise some tours, tuk tuks, advise on where to eat and drink. We certainly recommend a few days here

We stayed in a splendid villa, tastefully decorated with a charming appearance. We reserved the entire villa, which provided comfortable lodging for six people. The villa consisted of a roomy living area, a small kitchen, and a delightful dining space. A notable features of the villa were the abundant seating spaces, accompanied by an appealing design and the private cozy setting. Situated at the core of Galle Fort, we dedicated our day to exploring its historical expanse. The villa offered a good breakfast. For lunch and dinner, we ventured to nearby restaurants.

Reason for 3 star is in part because the cost of this hotel is too high compared with better options in the fort. The cost is deceiving in booking. Com because it doesnt include substantial taxes. That being said, is a Lovely property and all staff are great. Location is perfect, just 1 minute from many restaurants and shops on pedlar street and surrounding area. I booked a deluxe double room. This place is much nicer than the pictures and was lovely and quiet. Downside was that the wifi connection was very bad, in fact the worst I have experienced. In addition, breakfast is ok but would have been nice to be given a choice or even told what to expect, especially as I dont like to waste food. Lovely property but I wouldn't stay again if the wifi wasnt improved as it was just impossible! When travelling this is a must.

It’s odd that the main concern here is asking travellers to pay for their stay the moment they arrive/walk back in to the property/constantly. Payment on check-put is the norm and it’s strange to continually stay in places like this in Sri Lanka where they’re just obsessed with money. We’re all going to pay you for our stays - that’s normal. Please just let us be here and enjoy and pay on departure - which is standard.

Weird stafff who seem confused by basic requests. Aggressive manager who appeared at my door shortly after check-in to discuss ‘things’ and proceeded to engage me in a strange and circular conversation which included questioning my English language skills (?). WiFi, needed for an urgent and specific request, not working, with no attempts to address or fix this. Rooms have no glass windows so it’s very dark unless you open the door to everyone - makes the AC redundant as a result. Not good value for money, annoyed once again by **********’s dreadful Sri Lankan property selection.

The location is great right in the middle of the UNESCO heritage site. It was very clean. With 4 persons we had the entire first floor to ourselves with an open air lounge area. The host are very friendly.
