The Bartizan Galle Fort, hotel in Galle

Located in Galle Fort, a world heritage site, The Bartizan’s original structure was built in the early 17th century Dutch colonial period.

It is very close to Peddler's street and therefore accessible to a variety of shops. It also has a nice sea view. The place has a very elegant design while maintaining the rustic atmosphere. We booked the South View tower, but due to the weather, they upgraded ours to a Superiour partial sea view room. The staff were very friendly and professional. The breakfast is customizable, and the outdoor dining was very enjoyable in the morning.

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!

    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.

    Galle is a city with a combination of a Dutch period fort and beach with all modern facilities. Dutch Fort is a very live well, reserved place with excellent attractions and choices. Walking over the museums and art galleries located in preserved ancient buildings is an excellent experience. fairly good nightlife available with ample choices of fine dining. within Fort, they charge higher prices due to high tourist demand. yet affordable eateries, supermarkets and facilities are available out of Fort within walking distance. Also people in Galle are very friendly, professional and helpful .

    Perfect location in the, heart of beautiful Galle. We felt. completely at home in this lovely family run hotel. Malika welcomed, us warmly with cold coconut juice. Her breakfasts were copious and delicious. We appreciated too the complimentary bottle of water given to us each day. Our room was not very big but very nice. Wonderful bed and pillows. The bathroom was by far the nicest we've had in Sri Lanka. Our stay here was especially enjoyable due to the kindness and friendliness of Malika who is a perfect and very professional host.

    Best Hostel experience I had so far. The house, garden and food were awesome. Super friendly host. Property is a historical one. Garden is absolutely fascinating with lush greenery and eco friendly. Location is not far from the Galle town and Galle Dutch Fort. Can get the bus in front of the hostel and can go to the main town within few minutes it’s only 27 rupees. Host helped me to find tuk tuk on apps. Walking distance to Rumassala Jungle Beach and Unawatuna Beach. Highly recommend to those who looking for a best hostel experience.

You can see monkeys in the morning and evening. (Being your binoculars) The staff was super friendly and helpful whenever needed. The sri lankan breakfast was very yummy. Even though remotely in the nature if you want to go to galle it is still only 20 min by TukTuk or 5 min to the beach.

    If you are looking for a budget stay in Galle this is a great option. The room is clean and comfortable and has everything you need in a great location. Moreover the owner and his family are extremely nice and helpful. They make you feel at home with them. It is very difficult to find local food inside the fort at affordable prices. After looking for hours we saw their food offerings and they have great Sri Lankan food and beverages at very fair prices.

    This was the best value hotel we stayed at in Sri Lanka. For the price, I expected it to be a very basic hotel but it turned out to be one of the nicest hotels we stayed at full stop (at any price). The property is really beautifully designed and the staff were amazing. It's just outside of Galle and a TukTuk into Galle will cost £1 and take only a couple of minutes. It's also right across the road from the beach. Amazing place - would highly recommend!

I’m forever grateful for the kindness of the entire Fort House team, particularly Sabrin. I’d definitely recommend booking in here and will be sure to stay here on any return visits to Galle.

    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.
