Frangipani Tree Hotel

“We had been guided expertly around the most amazing island of Sri Lanka by our trusty and multi-talented guide Sanjeewa we thorougly recommend that everyone look at his website www.sanjeewatours.com and get him to provide the service everyone richly deserves…after being in the mountains we were longing for the beach and did we find HEAVEN? We were welcomed with a”

“Where should I start – the sumptuous food mouth-watering juices superb service jaw-dropping-frangipani-tree-covered-roofless toilets stupendous infinity pool passionate ocean crashing on the beach…it really was a little slice of heaven a sublime dream. more “

“We were looking for a few days of relaxation on our way home to the UK from Singapore. And what a place to relax. The room was spacious and you slept to the sound of the waves breaking on the beach. The service was fantastic – and nothing was too much trouble for Sugath who was looking after us. And”

“We were looking for a perfect venue to get married in Sri Lanka. After lots and lots of searching we found The Frangipani Tree. It seemed to be exactly what we were looking for – a small boutique hotel stylish modern contemporary rooms and on the beach and it delivered all of this. We contacted the manager Warnathilaka to see”

“The place is stunning from the entrance and only improves as you settle down. We stayed for a week in Olive Ridley. The views from the first storey rooms are picturesque with your own private beach with an occasional fisherman trying to catch fish with a string!!! The rooms are beautiful spacious and full of light and comfort. The bathrooms”

“I will have a hard time explaining what I actually felt and still do for my stay at the Frangipani. The staff is very attentive helpful and sincerely care about their job and the comfort of their guests. The food is unbelievable. Gorgeous and I have to say it is definitely one of the best meals I had in my”

“Exactly what we imagined and wished when we decided to end our intensive travel in Madhya Pradesh India by flying to Galle Sri Lanka; all we wanted was to find a small villa right on the beach among coconut palms with a mirror smooth swimming pool have great culinary meals specially cooked for us from the very fresh fish and”

“We returned from a wonderful trip around Sri Lanka about 10 days ago – our experience was exellent and we clearly understand that 80% of our impression of the country were actually formed based on the hotel choice. The Frangipani tree was amazing from the very beginning – and till the end of our stay (14-25 Dec). Breathtaking beauty ot”

“Arriving at the hotel at first glance it looks like a secluded oasis away from the busy road it is situated on. We were led to our room through what can only be described as a garden of mosquitoes. The room itself was basic with no such things as a safe. We were then led through to the open air”

“If you are looking for a slice of paradise The Frangipani Tree in Galle is the place to come. After 4 days here we felt truly relaxed and re-energised. The villas are spacious and tastefully decorated ;set in beautiful grounds with a stunning view of the ocean. Each room has a courtyard bathroom in which one can have a bath”

Fort Printers Hotel Holiday Reviews

Fort Printers Hotel

“For Printers is a small boutique hotel right in the middle of Fort Galle town and is a PEFECT location to feel comfortable and yet have the town very accessible for sampling Sri Lankan lifestyle. Having been in Sri Lanka for nearly two weeks relaxed on a beach and felt pampered it was time to sample life and take memories”

“We had a wonderful stay at this elegant historical gem. It felt like we were in the midst of a renaissance novel dripping with intrigue and culture and sumerimposed with the most sumptuous food wine and gracious service. We highly recoemmend and will most certainly return to this beautiful oasis. more “

“After a few days in the Frangipani we stayed at the Fort Printers Hotel in Galle. Completely different from the Frangipani (its sister hotel) but still a wonderful experience. Again the food was wonderful and the Manager Mr Warnathilaka was excellent arranging transport with Rohan of Sarota Travels. The trips organised were to our agenda and timetable and avoided the”

“Our recent travels in Asia evoked memories of our wonderful stay at this renovated gem located right in the middle of a living fort Galle Fort. We stayed twice at this place during our long trip to Sri Lanka first with our family from the UK and then again alone on our return trip from the highlands. Both stays were”

“This place was what one can only dream a Home can feel like. The delicacy in the surroundings is tingling to the soul. The beautifully decorated spacious rooms the pool the temple flowers the birds the Exquisite dinning (My best complements to the chef) the serenity and the absolute privacy make this stay an unforgettable experience. The staff is very”

“When I first arrived I was pleasantly surprised. The images on the website do not the hotel justice. I simply fell in love with the place the atmosphere the staff the swimming pool the birds…The chef is another story and worth traveling all the distance for his exotic and unique meals. The staff will do absolutely anything for you(well you”

“My girlfriend and I spent a wonderful 24 hours at the Fort Printers. Very reasonably priced by western standards with an immaculately restored gleaming black morris minor parked outside. As soon as we walked into the place we realised this place was something special. A former school with vaulted ceilings huge open spaces for relaxing and enjoying a cocktail and”

“We booked the Fort and Beach promotion and stayed for one night. Fort Printers is an old Dutch building which has been renovated as a 5 room boutique hotel. As you enter the place as we did from a long drive and the eerily quiet streets of the fort in early hours of the morning it feels like you have”

“Stayed for just one night but was fabulous. Lovely and tranquil and with a delicious breakfast – great coffee and fresh bread. The pool is just big enough for a cooling dip and the reception area has sink into sofas which are great for chilling. Would recommend the Headmasters Suite which has rooftop views over the Fort (think most of”

“We stayed at the Fort Printers for one night and a day in September 2007. This was a terrible mistake. The Fort Printers did not have and still lacks a back-up power generator. Power cuts happen reasonably often in Galle and no decent boutqiue/better guest house or hotel would be without a generator. When the power failed in the night “

Closenberg Hotel Holiday Reviews

Closenberg Hotel

“Stayed 2 nights as part of a 13 night tour of Sri Lanka. The building is a lovely example of old colonialism. Room was clean and tidy without the modern touches except for air con (but that suited the style and us). We had a room on the top floor with great views if you looked out across the bay”

“Staying here really ought to have been a great experience. The location equidistant between Galle town and Unawatuna was convenient. The building itself and the furniture in the public areas were quite lovely. However except for the waiters who tried their best the staff had little interest in enhancing our stay. On one occasion we had to chase up the”

“We stayed in this hotel because it was more moderately priced than others in the Galle area and because of its very good position overlooking the Sea. We were not disappointed although the rooms though clean are rather basic (no TV). The staff are friendly and helpful. During our one night stay we had dinner in the restaurant and there”

“About 20 years ago this was one of the best hotels in Sri Lanka and although still OK its a little dated and rough around the edges now. About 2/3 km from both Galle and Unawatuna it seems well located but i would probalby recommend that you stay in Unawatuna instead as the Closenberg is a little isolated and the”

“This hotel is a true throwback to the colonnial era. Dark wood and whitewash dominate throughout add smart service and fabulous views and you have a pretty amazing hotel. Rooms (were were in B7) are clean (inc the bathroom!) with efficient air conditioning and mosquito nets. A balcony gives you an unrivalled view of the bay and beach with surprisingly”

“Stayed here for 4 days in November 2007 – had lovely clean spacious rooms and the view from the outdoor area is fantastic – even if you don’t stay here I’d recommend going for a meal the food is lovely traditional sri-lankan currys and loevely location to eat in. Overall for the price I think it is a great deal”

“Stunning locale with ocean views historic charm and a genuine family atmosphere await you at the Closenberg. An English captain built this estate that has been converted into a romantic getaway run by Kumar with relaxed charm and attentiveness to ones every need. Not to be missed on any trip to Galle. Lapping waves of the bay made me sleep”

“I stayed here with my 14 year old son for two nights last August – it was a bit of nostalgia for me as I had grown up in Sri Lanka and we quite often used to stay here as children As I remembered from those days the view from the balconies overlooking the sea is stunning and it is”

“I really want to give the Closenberg Hotel a big write up. It was really really nice and extremely good value for money – not sure how they could offer this quality for the price. The rooms are beautifully furnished. The bedding was absolutely sensational with mosquito nets and really nice well designed sheets and very comfortable beds. The linen”

“Our stay at this hotel was booked by a friend a local medical specialist. The setting was outstanding with beautiful views on three sides and a sea view from the balcony of our bedroom. The room itself could best be described as adequate but it was clean and free from wildlife. The ensuite bathroom was Ok and the bed the”

Apa Villa Illuketia Hotel

“This hotel is something straight out of your dreams. After staying two wonderful days at Apa Villa Thalpe we decided to try illuketia. We chose the Ginger suite. The location of the hotel is just amazing. We arrived there in middle of nowhere pure green all around us you can feel the difference even in the very air that you”

“If you’re reading this it’s probably because you’re considering staying at Illuketia – if so book immediately! Illuketia is one of those rare and wonderful finds. A beautiful unpretentious but stylish place with impecable attention to detail a dreamy setting amazing staff divine food and a little bit of magic thrown in. Criminally they’ve had hardly any guests this year “

“Illuketia proved to be everything the website shows and our perfect honeymoon destination. We loved the relaxed atmosphere and beautiful gardens. Watching the birds and other wildlife without having to leave your seat is amazing! The staff are attentive without being overpowering and the food…. wow. The simply-described ‘rice and curry’ has to be seen and tasted to be believed…. “

“There seems to be some confusion between the Apa Villa in Illuketia and the one in Thalpe. I hope I can help clarify a little. We had booked to stay at Apa Villas Thalpe but sometime during our tour of Sri Lanka our agent changed the booking (without our knowledge) and booked us into Illuketia instead. The first we knew”

“Stayed here in June 2005 at the end of one of many trips to Sri Lanka and this oasis of peace is probably the best place in SL that I have stayed in – and I have stayed in a good many places in SL. This hotel is not to be confused with the Apa beach property. Illuketia is a”

“I can’t recommend APA Villa highly enough. We just returned from our holiday in Sri Lanka which we finished up at APA Villas for a few days. The hotel was very quiet there was only one other couple there for one night and they left so we had the place to ourselves. The rooms which are suites are beautifully decorated”

“Being a teenager going on holidays with my family can get a little dull. When I found out I was going to Srilanka for a few days I thought it would be bad and depressing due to the recent Tsunami disaster But when arriving our Hotel I changed my mind. The staff were very helpful and the atmosphere was welcoming”

Amangalla Hotel

“As avid followers of trip adviser reviews we were inclined to stay at the Galle Ft Hotel in Galle to enjoy the rustic historical aspect of our first trip to Sri Lanka. Wrong choice. We knew it the minute we checked in; it just wasn’t the right fit for us to celebrate a post Christmas birthday…so off we went to”

“We stayed at Amangalla for 2 nights whilst on our honeymoon but I definitely wish we could have stayed longer. The property is simply stunning. I want to redocorate my house to look like this hotel! We stayed in a 2 room suite with amazing views and the service was aboslutely amazing. Granted we were the only guests in the”

“Whilst I do agree with everyone’s comments on the hotel and the location etc…. I just want to say BEWARE!!! To all my fellow travellers to take care of your belongings in this hotel and don’t leave your personal things open to temptation in your room. Ensure you lock all your valuables in the safe provided. Whilst I stayed at”

“My wife and I stayed at Amangalla for three nights as the first leg of our wedding anniversary trip to Sri Lanka in September. We felt completely spoiled by every one of their staff from the houseboy and butler up to the manager. The presence of Amangalla added much charm to the historic city of Galle Fort which is an”

“We regret only staying in this hotel for only 1 night. When we were planning our trip we thought that a city stay in Galle should have only been worth 1 night. However upon arriving our initial reaction was to instantly book another 2 nights. Contrary to what another reviewer had said about it being pretentious we did not find”

“We spent 3 nights at the Amangalla and were very impressed. The building the former Dutch Governor’s residence has been beautifully and stylishly restored and is now a gracious and luxurious hotel in a good location within the fort. Our room was extremely comfortable with large sitting bedroom and bathroom areas all in one large room. The quality of the”

“We had a wonderful couple of days here. The service was fantastic – we had our own butler – Maraka – who was really kind and helpful. I would not recommend this hotel for anyone who has difficulty with mobility however. There are steps up to the entrance and many steps to the pool and spa area – no hand”

“This is a beautiful hotel within Galle Fort. It has luxurious rooms and a magnificent peaceful swimming-pool. I didn’t use the Spa but recommend the haircut and shave which is done by a guy who looks about 12 years old (he swears he’s 25) but was tremendous. I ate here one evening and the food was good but not exceptional “

“Stayed at Amangalla for two nights. Physically the hotel has been restored beautifully but it has completely lost the true character of what was a formidable hotel in Ceylon/Sri Lanka. Even in its state of shambles a few years ago it had genuine character. It is now just another expensive member of a hotel chain which can only be described”

“We stayed at the Aman during a week long break for our Honeymoon in Sri Lanka and it was truly amazing. The Staff were so attentive and our every need was catered for by a personal butler (Malaka) who was fabulous. The rooms are beautiful and furnished to exceptional standard The Spa treatments are to die for as is the”
