Fort Bazaar

Really enjoyed my stay at fort bazaar. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Due to the rainy weather down south I changed my plans to go to Tangalle and stay a couple of extra days at Fort Bazaar and enjoyed the spa and walking around Galle. I was a solo traveler and felt safe and comfortable there. Definitely somewhere I would consider to stay again

What a delightful little boutique hotel situated in galle. From the moment you walk in passed the bar and restaurant and the cool lounge which are all open to the public you see the sign residence only and once through this doorway you find reception and a really awesome courtyard. Being a small hotel (18 rooms only) the service is personal the staff are fantastic and the rooms are clean and cool (bordering on cold) . The swimming pool is awesome the pool towels are lush and the food was some of the best I've had in sri lanka also the executive chef coming in the restaurant and chatting with customers was also nice. Definitely worth a visit just wished we had scheduled more time there.

Beautiful hotel in a great location. Staff were excellent, friendly, helpful and courteous. A special call out for Sanjeewa Gamage who made our stay perfect. He was charming and so helpful. Galle a great place to visit and walk around. Many good restaurants including Church Street Social in Fort Bazaar hotel.

The hotel has a lovely homely feel to it. Staff is very hospitable and attentive. Lovely food with nice vegan options for me. I don't drink but a bar is right here for those who like cocktails.. Rooms are very comfortable with really nice, soft linen and pillows. I also appreciate that they give us non-plastic toothbrushes here. The hotel also arranged a walking tour with Mr.Tharanga who was a great tour guide. I highly recommend him as he has great knowledge of history and Galle's heritage. He took us on a lovely tour that covered the scenic architecture nearby and landmark places like the Victoria Villa church, the law court premises and other important heritage buildings.

On the second day of our short holiday, we had the pleasure of staying at the stunning Fort Bazaar, a calm, luxurious retreat nestled in the heart of Galle Fort. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the elegant décor and thoughtful design that perfectly blends modern style with the charm of a historic setting. We were warmly welcomed by Nafhan, who greeted us at the front and gave us a personal tour of the property, sharing insights and stories along the way. His hospitality and attention to detail were truly exceptional, setting the tone for our stay. The rooms are beautifully styled, offering a perfect balance of comfort and sophistication. Every element, from the furnishings to the lighting, felt carefully considered. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the hotel’s long-awaited swimming pool, a brilliant addition that elevates the experience at Fort Bazaar. It’s the ideal spot to unwind after a day of exploring Galle Fort. The level of service was outstanding. Every member of the staff went above and beyond to ensure we felt valued and comfortable. Their attentiveness and warm manner made us feel right at home. We were pleasantly surprised by the happy hour from 5 pm to 6 pm, where guests are treated to tea, coffee, cocktails, mocktails, and fresh juices. This thoughtful gesture added a memorable touch to our experience. Dining at the hotel’s restaurant was another highlight. The space strikes a perfect balance between grandeur and relaxation, creating a stylish yet chilled ambiance. The food was exceptional, with an excellent mix of local and international flavours. Our kids were thrilled with the selection of Western-inspired dishes, while we indulged in more Sri Lankan-inspired options. The quality and presentation of every dish were impeccable. Fort Bazaar perfectly embodies the spirit of historical Ceylon blended with contemporary island luxury, just as you’d expect from Teardrop Hotels. It was an unforgettable stay, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting Galle Fort. This hidden gem offers both style and substance in one of Sri Lanka’s most iconic locations.
