🫀 Amazing ambience.. service was good. The food was nothing to write back home. A beef burger priced at Rs 2000 plus taxes is a bit of a joke. Worth the visit for the ambience, their chocolate brownies and coffee. Probably the best in the fort. Pricey place.

    Food - absolutely amazing (5 stars) Service - needs polishing. (3 stars) Had prawns and fish dishes. Tasty, great flavours, well presented. Drinks ran dry and empty plates hung around before being cleared. Had to ask for a dessert menu. Once the manager knocked of the night, the Waiters made it clear it's time to leave. Made it very uncomfortable.

    This is a review for the Lighthouse property. We found the rooms to be beautiful, modern, simple, elegant. Super comfy bed with a great (functional + romantic at same time) mosquito net. Caution for older people-- floors (polished concrete) in room could be very slippery. Impeccable service, managers and staff super helpful and assisted in travel advice. One thing we REALLY appreciated is that they have filtered drinking water (NOT bottled water) to cut down on plastic waste from single-serve water bottles (basically the devil in a country without recycling infrastructure!). Located in a great location right in Galle, steps to restaurants, Fort wall, etc. Breakfast was just delicious and we also had dinner in the restaurant, also good. A+!

    Came here for dinner only. Gorgeous intimate setting. Food menu was small, but some tantalising options. I opted for peppered tuna as a starter, spicy seafood with coconut gravy for main & a traditional Sri Lankan desert of curd & a sticky sauce (like treacle). All was yummy & reasonably priced for an upmarket restaurant.

    We were looking for a one night stay in Galle, in order to properly see the fort and shorten our drive to the southern coast. We chose the Fortaleza as it's in the city center and it's the main hotel of this local chain, therefore people from other accomodations all come here for breakfast. We stayed in the master bedroom on the second floor and we really liked it, room was big and extremely spacious with both AC and fan. There are two rooms on the ground floor and two on the first floor, I would recommend the first floor as the street is really close to the windows otherwise. Hotel is recommended for a short stay as it lacks of few amenities like pool, spa etc that other structures offer in town. Nice breakfast!

    Breakfast was average and the staff in the restaurant was not really welcoming. Be also aware that the review of the restaurant on the lonely planet doesn't reflect at all the reality. The food is less than average, bland taste and not a fusion interpretation of Sri Lankan cuisine but it is international cuisine. The food also had a frozen taste. Would not recommend to dine there

    Was here for two nights in Dec 2015. The food is good, although choices are limited. Room is clean with old worldly charm. The staff are warm warm and very hospitable. The bright eyed young lady, Krishni, at the reception/office warrants special mention on this account .

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. We had a beautiful room, excellent service and the breakfast in the morning was delicious. The staff really went out of their way to make our honeymoon stay special. It’s in the main fort, so everything is about 5 mins walk away. We’d definitely come back and stay!

😠 Walked in for dinner with friends at around 8.30 pm and was warmly welcomed. Our orders were taken promptly but then everything went downhill from there. Waited around 40 minutes till we decided to ask a waitstaff for an update on our food and we were assured that we would get it soon. After this we...
