We had a really excellent time. ##### KIRSTY Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gyanendra Oct 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff were extremely helpful, especially Isharu and the door man. ##### Gyanendra Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen Feb 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Bartizan is locted on edge of Galle Fort. It has a rooftop with seating which has great sea views and more importantly a breeze in the swealtering heat! Breakfast amazing, with nice choices, staff supet freindly and very polite. Well worth booking a room with seaview or partial seaview rather than courtyard room ( although these are fine). Would recommend this hotel. ##### Helen Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mehmet Mar 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff and Management were very kind and cooperative. When they realized that the room reserved was difficult for us due to narrow steps, they upgraded us to a very nice and easy access room. ##### Mehmet Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### charlotte Apr 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A lovely and atmospheric property. We were upgraded to a large room with a terrace and a sea view which was appreciated.The room was extremely comfortable with a complimentary mini bar. We loved the roof terrace with its great view over the fort and the sea. Although there is no pool, a small, safe beach is just steps away with beach towels provided by the hotel. ##### charlotte Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Siddharth Jan 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Its an old building refurbished into a modern, sleek hotel. Conveniently located within the ramparts of the Galle Fort, its super comfortable, with luxury shower products and impeccable service. Loved the breakfast!! They managed to go out of their way to get my laundry done on time for our train!! 10/10 will stay here again! ##### Siddharth Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan Jul 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The place to stay in Galle The Bartizan is a very lowly hotel and we enjoyed our stay. The view over the ocean from our private balcony was amazing. The room well appointed and spacious. ##### Dan Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tania Mar 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was a nice property. I thought the price was high for the size of room I had. ##### Tania Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen Feb 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities So unique from any hotel I have stayed out. Colonial building with only 10 rooms, right next to Fort wall. Staff lovely and friendly, included breakfast was great with fruit, juice, yoghurt and also hot with sausages, bacon etc. Can have delivered privately to your balcony or in courtyard. Easy access into Galle to walk around. Lots to explore and so much character. Great spot ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Trenton Jun 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Want something different? Check the Bartizan The hotel has character and can't beat the location within the Fort. The room we had is West facing, so great sunset from the room and the rooftop area, but conversely the rooms get hot and the a/c in the room (we had Family Suite, 1 Bedroom, Ocean View, Oceanfront) just didn't seem to do the job. The hotel is expensive given the facilities are limited. Staff are welcoming supportive and friendly. We did end up taking our own suitcases downstairs when we left. Would recommend if it fits in your budget, but maybe just 1-2 nights if you are a family looking for more comfort on an extended stay. ##### Trenton Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sophia Apr 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Bartizan is a really nice hotel with a great view over the ocean. I had the tower room which was small and gorgeous. However, it was not perfectly clean (the fan was super dusty, my bedsheets did not smell very fresh), plus the water pressure in the shower was super low and the water cold. Breakfast was really good and was served in the courtyard - or on the terrace upon request (only advisable in early morning hours, otherwise it will be too hot). ##### Sophia Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gaurav Jun 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities To call this a 3-star hotel is an absolute understatement. This boutique hotel is full of charm and character, offering an experience that far exceeds its rating. We stayed in the Deluxe Ocean Front room, which was stunning. The room was spacious, the bathroom was modern and spotless, and the private balcony was the icing on the cake. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. They accommodated our early travel schedule by packing us a breakfast to-go on the first day and served breakfast on our balcony the next. Whether it's the front desk or the 24/7 security guard, you're always greeted with a warm smile. The shared oceanfront terrace offers a spectacular view of the sunset — a perfect place to unwind. Highly recommended. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f50e1f16-9ebf-4dc7-89f3-bee6149e6046-1750086131808.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Breakfast on the Balcony](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9bba0b91-65ef-4b30-9823-108b5b7c8857-1750086172496.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gaurav Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels.d178276.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in British Columbia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-British-Columbia-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d11117-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Scottsdale Links Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Scottsdale-Links-Resort-By-Diamond-Resorts.h665144.Hotel-Information) > > [Three Valley Lake Chateau](https://www.expedia.ca/Revelstoke-Hotels-Three-Valley-Lake-Chateau.h5779859.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton Antigua, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Johns-Hotels-Royalton-Antigua-Resort-And-Spa-All-Inclusive.h24946683.Hotel-Information) > > [Laguna Shores Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Penasco-Hotels-Laguna-Shores-Resort.h6172746.Hotel-Information) > > [Edgewater Beach & Golf Resort by Resort Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Edgewater-Beach-And-Golf-Resort-By-Resort-Collection.h803238.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Tampa Downtown Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Tampa-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-Tampa-Downtown.h1407138.Hotel-Information) > > [The Benjamin Royal Sonesta New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-The-Benjamin.h5550.Hotel-Information) > > [LondonHouse Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Chicago-Hotels-LondonHouse-Chicago.h12786616.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Naxos](https://www.expedia.ca/Naxos-Hotels.d1716.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Regency Cartagena](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Cartagena.h15914053.Hotel-Information) > > [Robin Hood Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Robin-Hood-Inn-Suites.h8065306.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Niagara-on-the-Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-On-The-Lake-Motels.d8957-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Pinnacle Hotel Harbourfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Pinnacle-Hotel-Harbourfront.h13323.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with a Pool in Canmore](https://www.expedia.ca/Canmore-Hotels-Hotel-With-Pool.0-0-d10131-tHotelwithPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cavendish Lodge & Cottages](https://www.expedia.ca/Cavendish-Hotels-Cavendish-Lodge-Cottages.h12471167.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Bed-And-Breakfast.d6057903-aaBedAndBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) ### Flights > [WestJet Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Las Vegas (LAS) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/westjet-from-edmonton-intl-to-harry-reid-intl/ws/yeg/las) > > [Flights from Charlottetown (YYG) to Township of Woolwich (YKF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyg/ykf/charlottetown-to-kitchener) > > [Flights from Portland (PDX) to Boston (BOS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/pdx/bos/portland-to-boston) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/yyz/abbotsford-to-toronto) > > [Air Transat](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Transat-Flights.cTS.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Air Canada Dorval (YUL) to Cancun (CUN) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-pierre-elliott-trudeau-intl-to-cancun-intl/ac/yul/cun) > > [Flights from St. John's (YYT) to Jeddah (JED)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyt/jed/st-johns-to-jeddah) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Mumbai (BOM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/bom/toronto-to-mumbai) ### General > [Visit Lake Garda](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Garda.dx6047147)
