This is a beautifully restored boutique hotel in the centre of the walled city. The restaurant was amazing and the additional touches like complimentary afternoon tea and happy hour drinks made it hard to leave! The manager deserves special attention for his personal attention. We are very grateful to him for organising our pre-departure PCR tests and making everything easy. Thank you! We cannot recommend this place highly enough.

The Fort Bazaar Hotel is superbly located on one of the main little roads of Galle Fort ! It is a heritage property but recently done up maintaining the integrity of the old style they have modernised it to be contemporary ! The ambience is just beautiful but what made our stay exceptional were the very welcoming staff that always had a smile - were jovial and happy and made you feel so special that they left a lasting impression! A special mention has to be made of Thuan at reception who went out of his way to organise an external hair stylist for my mom and me so we didn’t have to leave Galle Fort searching for a salon ! The bar - restaurant at Fort Bazaar is particularly nice , relaxed, chilled out with exceptionally nice staff like Manoj who took super care of us and the manager Mendes ! Our short 2 night stay could have been longer and left us wanting more ! We will definitely be back to stay here with such warm hospitality and lovely people !

Beautifully designed hotel, which captures the essence of Galle's colonial past. Minimalist yet cosy interior to the bedroom, which utlised the high ceilings and open space extremely well. The library area upstairs was particularly serene and a welcome retreat after walking around in the heat. The breakfast was absolutely superb - Hoppers Florentine was delicious.

The hotel is wonderfully located; right in the middle of the fort complex. Rooms were on the small side but nicely decorated and thoughtful layout. Our checkin was very slow with little explanation for delays but in fairness it was on a Sunday and I don’t think it was the regular staff.

This was our first time in Sri Lanka but after staying at The Fort Bazaar, it won't be our last. We came for the cricket, specifically for the Galle Test but didn't expect to fall in love, almost instantly, with the hotel and it's staff as well as Galle Fort itself. The hotel is in the perfect location - close enough to feel the hustle and bustle of everyday Galle Fort, but far enough to feel peace and calm. We loved sitting on the veranda of the Church Street Social (restaurant at hotel) and watching the tuk-tuks whizzing to and from the stadium but then retiring the oasis of calm that is the courtyard garden, surrounded by beautiful trees and shrubs. This is the only place in Galle we will stay at in future. Oh and I haven't even mentioned the fantastic food, superb service and incredibly clean and comfortable rooms.

Quite a new hotel so it’s in great condition. Lovey big room and bathroom. No pool sadly but one is being built. No alcohol licence so no bar which was a shame but there are plenty of other places nearby. You won’t be disappointed as it’s a great hotel.

A visually stunning hotel situated in am ideal location within the Fort. Beautiful rooms with period features. A wonderful library with great views of the rest of the property and an interesting selection of books. An excellent spa with a professional and experienced therapist (Pha). This is certainly worth a visit or several. Senior staff were helpful and efficient. Some of the front of house waiting staff were often wandering around aimlessly when not serving which was a little off-putting at meal times. Tuk tuk drivers are situated at the front of the hotel and occasionally have to be brushed off when not required. On occasion I felt bothered by them every time I left the hotel. Still no swimming pool or bar however they do provide a tuk tuk to take you to Jetwing Lighthouse to use their pool. Alcoholic drinks can be bought in the property next door. On the whole visually stunning but lacking the full 5* experience.

The breakfast is also amazing- I have eaten a lot of hoppers and the Egg Hoppers I ate here were the best I’ve ever had. The sign in the bar states ‘ the best coffee in the fort’ this is also true :) I highly recommend staying here and will be returning myself the next time I come to Sri Lanka.
