The best hotels Galle

This beautiful 1684 building, which formerly housed the New Oriental Hotel, has been restored to its former glory by the Aman Group. A colonial atmosphere still haunts the corridors of this establishment with an old-fashioned charm. The rooms are fully furnished with antique furniture and still have Burmese teak floors. The spa, baths and pool are a perpetual invitation to relax. The restaurant serves fine cuisine in an elegant setting and the service is dedicated. An exceptional haven of peace.

Kottawa, Kottagama. Directorate Udagama, we will drop to Kottawa Junction. This monastery is located in the heart of 50 acres of forest on small hills. And in the middle flows a river. Affiliated to Waturawila.

Set in a ^17th-century Portuguese colonial house, Le Jardin du Fort is just a few steps from the beach and its lighthouse. Passed through British and Dutch hands, the house was renovated in 2008 by Unesco to open this romantic, atypical boutique hotel. The suites are warm and comfortable, with traditional furnishings. The common areas feature a collection of Sri Lankan puppets and masks. The little extra: a complimentary cold drink on arrival, a token of fine hospitality.
