A fantastic hotel right on the beach, with an fabulous infinitely pool. The service was amazing, and the food in the hotel was excellent. I enjoyed the massage in the spa so much that I had another one the next day. I will definitely return.

One of best hotel stays I had. Good food, friendly service, spacious rooms and beautiful views & architecture. Food was amazing. Ocean loft suite’s plunge pool is one of the best romantic this you can see in your room. The beach is clean and beautiful.

We stayed here for one night when we first arrived in Sri Lanka for our honeymoon. We wish we had stayed longer as the hotel was gorgeous and there was plenty to explore in Galle. We were given a room upgrade which we were so grateful for, our room was incredible, it was a huge room looking out on to the pool and sea. The staff were all so friendly and the food delicious. We would absolutely recommend anyone visiting Galle to stay at the Fortress.

This may be the first time I've given a 10/10 review. I can't fault this property - the room, the staff, the food plus so much more were all fantastic.
Even the beach also gets a 10/10 for being a long and quiet stretch without 'on the beach restaurants'. Totally peaceful.
The Fortress was recommended to me by a friend and I look forward to passing it on and to coming back myself.

Really superb property. Even though it has a heritage look, it's relatively newly built, so very comfortable, even if lacking in authenticity. Stunning location right by sea, but nothing outside to do, within walking distance. Bed so comfortable, fabulous view and nice restaurant area, with good breakfast. It wasn't clear to me until I was checking. out if there was a 'natural' pool in the coral area or was it just the swimming pool they said to use, as not allowed to swim in sea due to waves (fair advice). If there is a natural pool safe for swimming they should let guests know as I would have liked to swim in the sea and not just the pool. Perfectly clean and staff super responsive. Bath very nice but shower had very low water pressure. Highly recommend if you want somewhere comfortable and quiet. Not a lively resort with activities, but a true chill out spot by nature. Loved listening to waves from balcony in evening. Would love to return some day!
