    Comfortable stay, spacious double bedrooms, spotless bathrooms, comfortable beds, delicious breakfast, helpful and friendly staff.

    The hotel was perfectly located close to the fort wall and also to nearby restaurants and shops. The reception area was very chilled out and comfortable. WiFi worked very well.

    The entrance hatch/door was a bit of a nuisance, it required someone to open it from the inside.

    Our stay at Fort Bliss was absolutely delightful. The location was perfect for exploring the Fort area and we were able to easily walk to all the shops and restaurants. The villa itself had a charming old-world charm that added to the overall experience. Despite the compact size of our room, it was clean and comfortable, with a cozy bed that provided a good night's sleep. The highlight of our stay was the excellent breakfast, with a generous plate of fruits, delicious omelettes, and refreshing coffee. The staff at Fort Bliss were friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this hotel for its great location, charm, and friendly service.

    This hotel is perfectly located within the Fort area, right next to the ramparts. It allows you to easily explore Galle's historic fort and soak in the charming ambiance. The rooms are cozy with comfy beds and good air conditioning. You'll also love the Sri Lankan omelette served during breakfast, beautifully presented and included in the price.

    No improvements needed, everything was just right.

    This hotel is a gem inside the historic center of Galle. The location, right next to the ramparts, is perfect for exploring the fort. The staff are incredibly friendly and go the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. The rooms may not be spacious, but they are well-appointed with comfortable beds and antique furniture. I loved having a window that looked out onto the ramparts. The breakfast, especially the Sri Lankan omelette, was beautifully served and included in the price.

    All was fine, no improvements needed.

    This hotel is a hidden gem tucked away in the heart of the city. Its elegant design perfectly captures the charm and history of the old fort. The rooms, although not spacious, are comfortable with good air conditioning and en-suite bathrooms. I especially loved the window that overlooked the ramparts, offering a unique view. The breakfast, which was included, was beautifully served, and I highly recommend trying their famous Sri Lankan omelette.

    No improvement needed, everything was perfect.

    Located in the heart of the historic fort, Fort Bliss Galle offers easy access to Jungle Beach by tuk-tuk and is conveniently situated near the lighthouse. The hotel's garden area provides a tranquil retreat for guests to relax in. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and kept clean by the attentive staff. The breakfast served is delicious, with a variety of options including local fruits and homemade jam. Guests also appreciate the friendly service and the welcoming atmosphere of the hotel.

    One reviewer mentioned that the hotel's furnishings have started to show signs of wear and tear.

    This hotel is a hidden gem perfectly located within the historical center. The rooms, though small, are beautifully furnished with comfortable beds and good bathrooms. The staff is friendly and attentive, offering excellent service. The breakfast served here is a highlight, with a delicious Sri Lankan omelette included.

    All was just ok, nothing to complain about.

    This hotel offers a comfortable stay in a wonderful location. You'll find everything that you need nearby, including various restaurants to choose from. It's very close to the south ramparts and within walking distance to the fort wall. The rooms are simply furnished but comfortable, with an effective air conditioner, overhead fan, and some rooms offer a beautiful sunset view. The service is superb and staff take care of guests like family, providing clean facilities and superb breakfasts. You'll find free bottled water, beach towels, and even laundry facilities.

    One aspect that could be improved is some rooms have a terrible smell in the bathroom and the shower water runs out quickly.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel in Galle's fort. The location was perfect, right next to the ramparts. The view from my room on the second floor was breathtaking. The hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating, attending to all my requests promptly. Additionally, there were plenty of nearby restaurants to choose from.

    Nothing, all was good.

    This hotel had a great location close to the Fort walls, and the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. The breakfast was delicious with fresh fruit, eggs, and more. The hotel was also very clean and had great facilities.

    For the money we paid, Fort Bliss in Galle was an absolute steal. The room was cozy and gorgeous, offering breathtaking sunset views. The location, nestled within the old Dutch Fort, was simply perfect. The staff, especially Sanil, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was impeccable. They even helped us with transportation and recommendations. Highly recommend this hidden gem!

    Food for breakfast could have been more diverse.

    The complementary breakfast included was very generous and delicious, and the location of the hotel was perfect for exploring the area - within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. The staff members were friendly and always willing to help with any questions or concerns.

    The room had a lot of mosquitoes and there were no nets available. This made for some uncomfortable nights and required us to use a lot of bug spray.
