地理位置十分方便,網紅店就在隔壁,對門有bar,晚上帶孩子小坐一會兒很舒服,酒店沒問題,不過加勒就是可住可不住,個人覺得下次不會住一晚。

街の中にあり最高の立地で、灯台やモスク、ビーチにすぐに出ることが出来る。 家具やアート作品などのセンスがとても素晴らしかった。 パキスタン人オーナーが選んでいるとのこと。花の生け方も素敵だった。 ラウンジにはブリューゲルのカタログなどがあった。 ホテルの従業員のリネンの制服もホテルに合っていた。 プールも大きくはないが、周りの古い黄色い壁とのカラーコントラストが素敵だった。 朝食はコンチネンタルにしたが、ヘルシーでおしゃれで美味しかった。 スイートに泊まったが、猫足のバスタブ。ただし、窓の外は街路なので、窓を開けることができず、 暗かったのが少し残念。

A beautiful colonial building converted into a boutique hotel right in the heart of Galle. We stayed in the Headmasters suite and it was fabulous. As the name suggests the history is this building used to be a school and then a printers. It is now a lovely boutique hotel. I have to mention the exceptional service from the staff who were absolutely wonderful. Having travelled a long day in the heat to get here my wife was feeling a little unwell with headache and nausea and the staff were so nice and helpful bringing up special tea and offering great help and service. They really did go above and beyond. The hotel does great breakfasts and we ate lunch here which was first class as well. There are a few other similar colonial style boutique hotels and we had a drink in some and had dinner in one, but we were very happy we stayed at The Fort Printers. Galle is a lovely old colonial town and has a few very nice craft shops. Better than anywhere else we stayed in Sri Lanka including Kandy. There is a small swimming pool in the inner courtyard which we didn't actually use but looked nice.

A very quirky hotel that has been several things over the years, printers, school etc. Large rooms, good air con, very small swimming pool but this was a welcome relief from the scorching sun. Breakfast was lovely although you need plenty of time.

A lovely unique hotel right in the middle of the Dutch Fortress. Really fab. Professional staff who were very welcoming; and a truly superb Western breakfast (including granola). The area is buzzing and everything about this hotel is geared up to the customers needs. I would highly recommend it.

Lovely hotel. The room was magnificent with a wonderful canopied bed. The small pool is very welcome. The breakfasts are delightful with various choices, including a Sri Lankan breakfast, which my wife had both days and loved. The manager was both charming and knowledgeable and was able to make helpful recommendations . My only negative comment is that the restaurant across the street had live LOUD music until 10 PM both nights we were there. They did stop promptly at that time but, before then, they were quite annoying. Perhaps a room in the back would be quieter. We were able to occupy ourselves until 10 PM and it was more in the nature of a mild annoyance. I would definitely stay here again.

This hotel and staff were fantastic, I would like to give a special shout to Manoj, sorry if I didn’t spell it correctly, he went above and beyond to help is when we first got there. I can’t speak highly enough of the staff they always greeted you with a smile and were extremely polite. When we first got there and saw it was a set al carte menu I was like I will still be hungry after this but the portion size was more than efficient and was full every day and the tea is delicious. When we arrived the young woman at the desk was very informative and gave us a map of Galle which was a great help. Oh and thank you to lovely you man whom brought us breakfast due an early departure. Thank you so much for making our safe amazing. And the owners of this hotel should be very very proud of there staff I have attached some pics the fella outside the hotel was exceptional also 😊

We stayed here for three nights and had one supper. Excellent staff, really helpful, nothing to much trouble. Breakfast really clever. Great Sri Lankan fish curry in basket of crispy bread and egg custard with rice one day, morrocan eggs another. Supper superb crispy pork belly then Mahdi mani fish. I can’t eat chilli or spicy food and they cooked milder food especially for me. Ishaliyanage superb at coordinating everything for us so especial thanks (see photos). Madhu manager also helpful. Ishaliyanage booked restaurants, Tuk Tuk and generally brilliant. 30 staff for 13 rooms.terrace onto Main Street to drink and people watch. Food by pool or inside. Wonderful
