Excellent gem 💎 of a hotel in Galle , personalized service right from the time you enter the hotel , with a great welcome , overview explanation of the room and services , nice breakfast service , staff are amazing , very hospitable , right staff for right job -something you don’t find in Europe nowadays 😅. Will definitely recommend and come back in future . Just a small observation- the metallic door stopper in the bathroom is a safety hazard , I almost cut my feet on it and upon arrival the towels could be hot instead of cold … 😆

We had a great stay at The Sun House. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the property was beautiful and the food was amazing (especially the homemade coconut ice cream!). We would love to come back!

One of the best hotel stays I've ever had and one of the highlights on my Sri Lanka trip. Comfortable accommodation, great restaurant and lovely staff. The people were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The front desk also helped me organise a wonderful day trip and transfers. The Sun House is also on a good location - in the hill area so it's quiet but close enough to the fort. Thoroughly recommend!

Gorgeously situated in a beautiful ex-colonial mansion, serving excellent food. Staff are efficient and friendly. The regular rooms are evocative and very comfortable, with choice of fan and air conditioning. The lack of a television is more than compensated for by the eclectic collection of books in rooms, and communal areas. I was lucky to stay in the Galleon Suite, which is the size of an apartment, with a shower and outdoor bath! An evening dip in the pool, followed by drinks at the bar was the perfect way to end the evening. The rates are unbelievably low. Highly recommended!

Sun House is a beautifully restored hotel, and the location is ideal, a short walk from the fort, in a quiet location. The hotel is stunning and nature was literally right outside our window, we had a wonderful time. The breakfast was delicious too, both the Lankan and western options. We particularly appreciated the kind and helpful staff who took such good care of us, special thanks to the manager and Priyantha who made our stay very pleasant and comfortable.

We stayed here on the recommendation of a friend and it went beyond expectations! The staff were just wonderful - you felt so so cared for and about, to ensure you had the best possible time. I really couldn't recommend Rukman and his team from both The Sun House and The Dutch House highly enough!

The Sun House is a special place to stay. It's like staying at a private villa in colonial times. So spacious and relaxing. The food is excellent & the staff happy to do whatever you ask as well as offering what you might like.
