    Extremely costly. Breakfast will cost you 2000 LKR per person. They have 2 menu card (one for Lankans and other for foreigners), if you can't speak Sinhala language then you are in foreigners catagory. Cost of food is much higher than the cost of food in 5 star restro in India. Food quality is OK.

    We got into this place by a mistake thinking that it is the three star hotel near by. Eventhough it was not a star grade hotel they were very clean and tidy. Good customer service was seen. no specific parking, washrooms were not very good but still with hot water supply. We didnt stay long to check on wifi facilities and other. Food was also good.

    Rating of the restaurant only. We got stirfried chicken terribly dry and the fish in the fried noodles and also in fried rice was burned to black. The only good food was curry with rice. Not recommended.

  • 5/5 Samantha C. 4 months ago on Google
    Great location, service and price. Staff are very attentive and we felt welcomed. Fort Dew is a very homely place to stay. This is our second stay here, the first one about five years ago. It was exactly as we remembered it. This is a great place to stay in Galle and we will definitely be back.

    The best beet root and eggplant curry I have had even after spending 2 weeks in Sri Lanka. Takes 40 min and worth the wait.

  • 5/5 Miflal M. 9 months ago on Google
    I came here for a dinner with my office mates. The food was awesome. Highly recommended. We tried Sea Food Platter, Devilled Prawns, Fried Rice and Juices. Food was awesome.

    We checked in for the second time after 9 years. Still we are convinced to have chosen the right venue. The rooms are small (but enough), clean and equipped with a/c, small fridge and desk. The service and hospitality by all the staff is great. The roof terrace for breakfast and other meals or drinks is wonderful - nice view to the fort bastions and the ocean. The food is authentic and very tasty.

    Food 3/5. Coffee 1/5. View 5/5.

  • 4/5 Léon the P. 2 years ago on Google
    Great rooms for a short stay. Small, but tidy rooms. Location is awesome though. You don’t need a tuktuk to explore the old town of Galle. I’d recommend anyone to explore by foot.

  • 5/5 Janna S. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful comfortable guesthouse and delicious rice and curry at the restaurant. Would love to come back!

  • 4/5 stefan t. 7 years ago on Google
    Perfect location, the terrace of the restaurant and some of the rooms overlook the ramparts. The staff is great, the rooms are small and clean. Do not expect great luxury, everything is simple and functional.

  • 5/5 Sergii M. 2 years ago on Google
    Got here by accident for a breakfast, and was very lucky. I must say, that it was the best service and breakfast I had during two week in Sri Lanka.

    Excellent views, great cocktails, reasonable prices. Would go again. In fact, we did go again.

  • 4/5 Rumesh M. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice place, next to the sea, rooms are little bit small, but ok for short stay. Staff are kind and carefull. Didn't try the food but smell good 😉. An other good point you have a small fridge in the cupboard 😁

  • 5/5 Sadia K. 5 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, very laid back roof top bar and restaurant. Beautiful views of the ocean.

  • 4/5 Niels C. 6 years ago on Google
    Chill place at the fort area with a nice view on the water and the fort from the great rooftop. Decent burger, took long to make when looked at there was no one else eating .

  • 5/5 Claire B. 5 years ago on Google
    Wonderful location, good service and excellent well balanced flavour of the days special - Jamaican prawns with roast vegetables. These sweet flavours of the roasted vegetables went well with the spicy prawns ..that were perfectly cooked.

    We just had a coffee here! But; quiet place and beautiful view overlooking Galle and surroundings. Good coffee too.

👍 The place is in galleface fort overlooking the ocean. If you like to enjoy the sea breeze while having your meals I would say that this is a great place to be. Gets easily crowded and therefore would recommend to go at a odd time than the usual lunch dinner times. Reasonably good food but personally...
