Wonderfully located in the heart of Galle Fort, this is a gem of a place to stay! 5-star experience matched with 5-star service. From the welcome drink to tea service to beautiful rooms, we will return!

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

Five-star price, average B&B facilities. Breakfast is okay, but dinner is unpalatable, expensive and unpalatable. A hamburger costs 5,000 rupees, which is not very cost-effective. When I went there, I had to paint the entire hotel. The smell of paint was strong, but it was very uncomfortable. The service is good, especially the handsome guy AVI

This is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. Such warm hospitality, especially the bar staff, who kept us supplied with arrack attacks, G'n'Ts and cassava fries at cocktail hour, and Sanjeewa, who looked after us superbly at the delightful, newly opened pool. Great food too, from egg hoppers at breakfast to crab curry at night. And our Family Room was a perfect base for the four of us. The team were accommodating when we were obliged to change our plans. Thank you all.

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.

The staff should really get a 5 star rating as they were very friendly and helpful. The 3 star is for the hotel itself. Mostly the room. A no frills room. No painting , no rug , bathrobes hard as cement. Floor in two different cements with foot prints. The shower wall had a huge crack. One could hear the neighbors next door flushing the toilet and the neighbors upstairs coughing. It was a sad room. The good thing was the happy hour and the breakfast. The tip box by the concierge is good as it avoids handing money around.

A lovely comfortable room. Amazing staff. So helpful. Obviously enjoy their work. Breakfast was excellent. Best we had in Sri Lanka. Only had 3 nights but would have loved t to have stayed longer. Didn't have time to use the beautiful pool area . We last visited Galle in 1985 so things have changed but Galle is still a great place to be.
