Family-friendly Hotels in Galle

Overall, it was an enjoyable stay although in some respects it was inferior to other hotels I stayed in on the holiday. The pools were great and so was the view from the room. The room itself was alright - quite basic but sufficient. We did have problems with a leak in the ceiling which was promptly addressed by staff but still a little annoying. In general the staff were lovely: in particular Chamindu in the restaurant, a security guard who called me and my partner over to show us turtles on the beach (sorry, can't remember his name) and the guy working the sunloungers at the lower pool. The weakest part was probably the food. It wasn't bad exactly, it was just worse than the food in all the other hotels I stayed in.

The infinity pool of Bawa architecture is a wonderful hotel. Many of the customers seemed to be from Sri Lanka. There were many people like honeymooners, but there were surprisingly many families and families. Although the hotel was a little old, it was solidly built and there was no problem with the plumbing. Service outside the restaurant was very good. The restaurant seems to take more than 30 minutes to bring out what you ordered at lunch. And it was a little cold. Coffee for breakfast also took quite a while to come out. Housekeeping and receptionists were very nice.

The fort printers is a wonderful small boutique hotel in the middle of galle fort. We had a poor experience in another nearby hotel (poor air conditioning, noisy) and decided we would try and shift. In the morning we went into the hotel and the manager gave us a good rate so we moved. The rooms are lovely, well appointed, quiet, comfortable bed. Breakfast is outstanding, the best we had in Sri Lanka. Staff are very helpful. My partner had an accident with a Tuk Tuk and they were very supportive. Fortunately she was OK -we were very impressed by the care they showed. A great feature of the hotel is the pool, very rare in the old part of Galle, and with the heat, a great relief during the day. The location of the hotel is perfect, everything you need, cafes, shops, the sea, sites etc are a short walk. Highly recommended!!

The house is very high-class and simple, and the natural ecological environment makes people feel comfortable. Just prepare the anti-mosquito liquid and close the door easily. The overall design of the house designed by the landlord is artistic and the details are attentive, clean and refreshing, especially the open open-air bathroom is impressive! After six days of fatigue, I took a super refreshing bath, refreshing! The landlord patiently and meticulously asked each of us about our breakfast preferences, and enjoyed a very rich and delicious breakfast by the blue swimming pool and the monkey swinging tree! Everyone even has a carefully fried double egg! Great stay experience!

What a find ! Our large room was absolutely perfect - open the doors and there was the wonderful huge pool! Everything was so lovely, just as the pictures depicted - even better ! Breakfast was great, we had 2 meals at the hotel of an evening which were magnificent and set up poolside for us which was really lovely We were thrilled with our stay . The staff were delightful, helpful and kept the villa in such beautiful condition. Laundry was organised for us which was greatly appreciated as we were on a long trip and needed this done on short notice We cannot rate this Villa highly enough. We really hope to stay again You have a wonderful team of staff Best wishes Mandy and James - Australia

We had a lovely stay at this beachside hotel just outside of Galle. The staff are so incredibly friendly, welcoming and eager to help. We were mostly served by Raj who was great and went out of his way to look after us. But I must say that everyone, from the life guard / pool attendant to the manager were genuinely wonderful. A special mention to Vivura - who provides Ayurvedic massage services to guests. His massages were so good I had 2 over 2 days! Truly one of the best massages I have ever had so I definitely recommend ⭐️Thank you for a wonderful stay to all at Coco Bay Hotel! P.s a great selection of games plus pool table was a lovely bonus

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

Departed for Sri Lanka on September 28, 2023, and checked into the Amangalla Hotel in Galle Fort. It was the sixth Aman hotel to check in. It felt great. Amangalla was built in the 17th century. It was formerly a military command in the Netherlands. It later became the first hotel in Sri Lanka. It was acquired by the Aman Group in 1995. The hotel is not big, but it is well-equipped with swimming pools, massage pools, yoga rooms, etc. , you can experience local shaving services and foot massages. Amangalla is the smallest Aman I have ever stayed in. It is in the middle of the ancient city of Galle and a 10-minute walk from the lighthouse. The surrounding area is very convenient for eating, drinking and entertainment. There is the Tuna and the Crab restaurant, which is a brother restaurant of the one-Michelin-star restaurant in Colombo. If you have enough money, you can try it. Be sure to choose his tea plantation tour, which will also take you to see the sea turtle hatching base and stilt fishing. It was very interesting. Although I fell off and stepped on a rock while fishing on stilts and was injured, I gained interesting photos and a rare life experience. The ancient city of Galle is also worth visiting. Amangalla can arrange cars and tour guides. The hotel is right in the center of the ancient city. The location is good and it is very convenient to go everywhere. Although I fell into the sea while fishing on stilts and cut my feet. All in all, it was still a very interesting experience. The two Amans in Sri Lanka are different from the ones we stayed in before. They are far away from Colombo and do not provide free airport pick-up services. The airport pick-up fee for the five of us was about US$400 in a large amanganla. It should be noted that if two Aman activities are booked for consecutive days, they generally need to be booked from the official website, not Ctrip agents.

We stayed here for a few days over New Year. After an initial issue with the room allocation, which was down to the booking not the host we settled in with one half of the family in the main villa and the other in the B&B a few doors down. All the rooms were clean and had what you needed in there and very authentic to the style of the area. Location wise, it's ideally located for exploring Galle, and we found the whole area very safe and welcoming. Breakfast was traditional Sri Lankan which was lovely. As we were a large group they ensued we had a table to ourselves. The staff were brilliant happy to help with bags, brollies and anything. But the star of he show was Samitha, she helped us organise some tours, tuk tuks, advise on where to eat and drink. We certainly recommend a few days here

Resort hotels, open the door to see the sea, but it is recommended that little babies book rooms with sea views. If you have large suitcases, please make a note. Try to ask the hotel to give you a room on the first floor, because the hotel does not have stairs and it is inconvenient to go up and down. I stayed in a room with a sea view. It was super beautiful and had a good view. Observing those that were not with a sea view, I was really depressed. It was inside. The hotel is a certain distance away from the ancient city of Galle, which is equivalent to the suburbs of the city center. The tuk tuk is about 400-500 rupees. Anyway, it is convenient to take a taxi, the hotel is beautiful, and the holiday is very happy. The mosquitoes in the hotel are very powerful, and the hotel may not be blamed. The dengue mosquitoes in Sri Lanka are all troubled. My husband's foot was bitten by something unknown. The bite was very painful, but there was no itching or fever. Fortunately, I also carried a cooling oil and applied it. Cool oil mosquitoes will not bite us,,,, especially complain about wifi, not at all, my phone card has almost no signal, the best situation is only 3G, most of the time only 2G, but once out of the hotel door, there is With 4G, it’s impossible to circulate in a hotel. I can only surf the Internet in the lobby, and the scenery in the lobby is also very beautiful. Watching the sunset, coconut grove, beach... Breakfast is also very good, it is ordered, not buffet, the first day I ordered banana pancake, the second day I ordered yogurt mixed grains (that is, yogurt is mixed with various grains, melon seeds and the like. In fact, yogurt is very delicious, but there are too few and too many grains. It can’t be mixed. I eat and eat, and it feels like I am eating soil. ) Banana pancakes are not bad. My husband orders American breakfast for two days. This is the safest, and there will be no surprises. . We are accustomed to asking the hotel to call a car for us to the next destination. I call a car from the hotel to Colombo for 11,000 rupees, which is a little bit more expensive than the 10,000 rupees listed on the roadside of the ancient city of Galle. I can understand this. I don’t like to find a driver on the side of the road. After all, life is the most precious thing. The cars called by the hotel are relatively safe. , Buy a peace of mind. All in all, the hotel is still great and good, Shang Meitu
