Heading down a narrow gravel alley, this quaint guesthouse is bright, spacious, clean and cheerful. The photos in the listing are quite accurate and reflecting the charm of this inn. My hosts were incredibly gracious and welcoming. Breakfast and tea are easy to linger over on the upstairs patio. I spent a glorious, unhurried hour up there with a book, and I could easily have dozed off that afternoon. The bedroom and bathroom are spacious and modern and clean, and the shower has good water pressure (And ample hot water.) A small wooden storage box on the bedroom wall contains a welcome addition: hot water heater for tea or coffee. Walking distance to everything you would want to see in town: the ramparts, bars, restaurants, gift shops, the temple, and the cricket stadium. About a 12-minute walk or 150r tuktuk from the train station. One minor quibble: western breakfast consisted of a whopping four pieces of white toast and two heaping bowls of marmalade and butter, together with one fried egg. I was really looking forward to a Sri Lankan breakfast, especially after smelling he host couple’s fragrant home cooking. If you are a westerner, specify a Sri Lankan option; otherwise it will probably be assumed you want a “western” breakfast. ... Just a fact, not a value judgment: The hosts’ younger child is 1 year old. His cries and shrieks may be part of your stay. ##### Aaron ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robyn Apr 15, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Homestay with this lovely family recommended. Staying right in the centre of town near Pedlar St in this very modern clean home was a delight. The bonus was the lovely couple who owned it. So generous and welcoming, including us in their festivities for New Year and preparing special Sri Lankan afternoon tea treats for us. Our attic room and sitting room were upstairs. The air conditioning was very welcome and the bed very comfy. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1148-p94ffea90-4093-11e8-90f5-02426f8ac431-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Robyn ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rhiannah M Apr 9, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Cosy Place This guesthouse is tucked away within Galle Fort away from the main streets and away from traffic, but is easily findable with its signs. It is within walking distance to everything in the fort, so no need for tuk tuks everywhere. The rooms have a cosy/chic feel, and are well presented. Breakfast was toast, eggs and pancakes with tea or coffee. Family are really nice too, if I return to Galle I will stay here again :) ##### Rhiannah M ### 10/10 Excellent #### Axel und Lara, Berlin Mar 1, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hübsches Hotel, super Lage Der Aufenthalt war super. Tolles, sauberes Zimmer mit Safe, Klimaanlage und schicker Dusche. Frühstück auf der Dachterrasse leider europäisch.... Also Toast mit Obst und Kaffee. Dafür klasse Ausblick.

Kan varmt rekommendera detta hotel/homestay. Ägs av en trevlig familj som ger god service, ligger i en gränd i södra delen av Inner Fort. Man får ett rum till ett bra pris med fräscht badrum och AC, i princip det du behöver för några nätter i Galle. Frukosten som serveras är västerländsk men snäppet bättre än de flesta andra :) ##### Johan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Dec 17, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### 良宿のはずが、オーバーブッキングで台無し 3泊分を予約していたが、チェックイン直前に1泊分を別途、追加予約して、計4泊した。……はずだったが、2日目から近くの全く別のゲストハウスに移らされた。オーバーブッキングと思われる。そのゲストハウスが格落ちで、ものすごく不満が残った。たまたま3日目から急なキャンセルがあり、ここに戻れた。清潔で、居心地がいい宿で、妙な引っ越しさえなければ満点を差し上げていたが、契約通りに部屋を使えなかったので、最低ポイントしかつけられない。せめて、同レベルの宿に引っ越せるか、相応の割引を受けられるかすれば、許せるが。。。オーナーがティッサマハーラーマまでのタクシー代9000ルピーを8000ルピーに割引してくれた時、いいレビューを書いてくれと頼んできたが、やはりオーバーブッキングの罪は重い。オーバーブッキングについては、事前に何のアナウンスもなかったし、オーナーは悪びれてもいない。この国の常識は、こうなのか？ ここに泊まるなら、そういうリスクがあるということを念頭に置いて下さい。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Dec 15, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### オーバーブッキング?で別のゲストハウスに移らされた 3泊分を予約していたが、チェックイン直前に1泊分を別途、追加予約して、計4泊した。……はずだったが、2日目から近くの全く別のゲストハウスに移らされた。オーバーブッキングと思われる。そのゲストハウスが格落ちで、ものすごく不満が残った。たまたま3日目から急なキャンセルがあり、ここに戻れた。清潔で、居心地がいい宿で、妙な引っ越しさえなければ満点を差し上げていたが、契約通りに部屋を使えなかったので、最低ポイントしかつけられない。せめて、同レベルの宿に引っ越せるか、相応の割引を受けられれば許せるが、今回は許せない。オーバーブッキングについては、事前に何のアナウンスもなかった。ここに泊まるなら、そういうリスクがあるということです。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Dec 15, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### オーバーブッキング?で別のゲストハウスに移らされた 3泊分を予約していたが、チェックイン直前に1泊分を別途、追加予約して、計4泊した。……はずだったが、2日目から近くの全く別のゲストハウスに移らされた。オーバーブッキングと思われる。そのゲストハウスが格落ちで、ものすごく不満が残った。たまたま3日目から急なキャンセルがあり、ここに戻れた。清潔で、居心地がいい宿で、妙な引っ越しさえなければ満点を差し上げていたが、契約通りに部屋を使えなかったので、最低ポイントしかつけられない。せめて、同レベルの宿に引っ越せるか、相応の割引を受けられれば許せるが、今回は許せない。オーバーブッキングについては、事前に何のアナウンスもなかった。ここに泊まるなら、そういうリスクがあるということです。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy Chan, Hong Kong Dec 10, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful Homestay Living with a lovely family.
