I was lucky enough to come across the Fortaleza completely by chance on my way through from Tangalle to Colombo. What a lovely little gem this place is. Excellently kitted out, stylish rooms at very reasonable prices and a great menu, presented and delivered expertly by the more than competent chef and table waiting staff. The proprietors Liam and Nat... More

We go here every time we head to Galle, even if it is just for a quick lunch when passing through. In fact we often pass through just to eat there! The food is outstanding, and the rooms are exquisitely furnished with understated eloquence. Yet at the same time it is a very chilled out, friendly place with great staff... More

Its all in the detail really; everything is taken care of, the service impeccable.... More

Very tasteful indeed and a much needed escape from another hotel which was booked via the net which turned... More

This is a delightful boutique hotel, well run by Nathalie and her partner. With just three rooms, it is charming, intimate and a pleasure to stay in. Excellent food, and the best coffee I have had in Sri Lanka. The passion fruit sodas are also delicious. The location in the heart of the fort is idea, so you can pop... More

Due to a change in the travel itenirary only one night was spent here, however it was a stay that I would strongly reccomend for others. We stayed in the library room which was tranquil with the window closed and yet allowed you to observe the hustle and bustle of the area with the window open. The room was decorated... More
