This hotel is excellent. The rooms we had was spacious and clean, the breakfast delicious and made to order, with local and international options available. The staff went way above and beyond to accommodate us, bringing us toothbrushes from the store to our room and even sending postcards for us when we asked where the post office was. The location is perfect too - right in the middle of town. Really can’t rate this place highly enough.

The breakfast menu al la carte was amazing!!! Great coffee , excellent service and facilities. Great location within the fort.
No tv in room but isn't needed. Rooms are large with a desk and sitting area. Bathroom beautiful with claw foot bath, spacious shower area. Pool area is lovely for a quick dip. Staff go above and beyond. Top pick for accomadation.

Outstanding staff & service
Hotel location in heart of Fort Galle excellent. Staff service, friendliness and willingness to accommodate excellent. Beautiful buildings well restored. Excellent breakfast. I assume they are not 5 star as only provide some of the little extras in room that you would normally expect from like properties eg tissues, body lotion etc but that didn’t bother us! Our bed was a little saggy but that is the only fault we could find. They even gave us a very late checkout at no cost when we offered to pay which was very much appreciated & totally not expected. Highly recommend.

It is a wonderful hotel, with fantastic staff, clean and in a perfect location.
Gayan helped us on our arrival and breakfast time, he was so kind and made us feel really welcome.

Also, breakfast is absolutely super delicious with lots of Sri Lankan fruits and options and lovely coffee.

13.07.2025 Michael

We really loved staying here. It was quiet and relaxing. The meals were great and the staff were really friendly and accommodating.

11.07.2025 Guest

We loved the building's architecture and sympathetic renovation with historic features. The rooms looked beautiful and were very comfortable. The breakfasts were varied, and we had a la carte service. We didn't stay for dinner. Service was good once you found someone to help they were kind and hospitable. The location was perfect for exploring. History is a good room. Prefects is next to yhe pool which not appeal to some, but it has a freestanding bath.
The pool is great for lengths.
Our request for 2 single beds could not be achieved without adding a extra bed to a double room.

12.02.2025 ericwaison

Very bad attitude! The water and electricity were cut off for two hours, and no one dealt with it. I complained to Ctrip, but they replied that it was a power outage in the entire area. How did other guests stay there? Not sincere at all! In addition, there were three rooms that were not in the hotel, but 200 meters away from the hotel. There was no mention or reminder on the booking interface. Ctrip was also at fault. Who would stay in a place 200 meters away with no service? This is a hotel, not Airbnb.

27.01.2025 James

Staying at Fort Printers was a really nice experience. The property is well-designed and spacious. It was my first time staying in a historical building, and it didn’t feel odd or scary at all. The location was perfect for getting around, though if you're staying in the fort, it’s not like there’s a huge area to explore anyway. Highly recommended for anyone who's into design hotels.

The courtyard area is just beautiful and relaxing

Fantastic small hotel in the middle of Galle Fort. For the life of me I don't know why it is a three star - it behaves like a five star. Excellent.

The hotel is rustic and authentic. It is no generic international standard hotel by any stretch but it is classy, arty and boutique. In a quiet backstreet but an easy walk anywhere around the fort. Breakfast is delicious and very good but can become a bit repetitive if staying more than a day so a couple of other options to select would be good. Service is very good and friendly from staff.

14.02.2026 Giorgia

We had the best stay at Prince of Galle. Such a lovely location, with beautiful interior design and thoughtful attention to detail. A real highlight for us was the friendly and genuinely caring service from Rukman, Kapila, and Sarengh, who made sure we were well looked after throughout our stay. The breakfast was also fantastic. Truly a little gem in Galle, we would definitely come back. Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so special.

30.01.2026 Oliver

Don’t think twice about staying here, Prince of Galle is a real gem. Effortlessly stylish with classic colonial charm, perfectly located inside Galle Fort with everything within easy walking distance. The staff are exceptional and genuinely go above and beyond. Rooms are small but beautifully done and completely in keeping with the building’s character. The iced tea really is the best, and breakfast is on another level. Highly recommended.

25.01.2026 Tim

This is a beautiful colonial style hotel on a quiet side street within the fort itself. We were lucky enough to stay in the Kings Residence on the top floor. The style of the property is Sri Lankan colonial but with western comforts like air conditioning. The top floor suite includes an open plan sitting area with chairs and access to a small terrace to view the sunset.
The staff are so welcoming and pandered to our every need. The breakfast justifies its billing as superb and is a lovely combination of Sri Lankan flavours served in a western style.

18.01.2026 Muhammad

Recently visited here and absolutely loved every minute of my stay. From the moment I arrived, the hotel felt special, a perfect blend of historic charm and refined modern luxury, set in a truly serene atmosphere. The rooms were exceptionally comfortable, immaculately maintained, and offered breathtaking views that made the morning memorable. What truly stood out, however, was the staff. They were warm, attentive, and sincerely welcoming, making me feel valued throughout my stay. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated, from the ambience to the service. Prince of Galle is an ideal retreat for anyone seeking relaxation, elegance, and an unforgettable experience in Galle. I would highly recommend it and would return without hesitation.
