The Bartizan Galle Fort

I have the best time staying in this hotel. Beautiful Place! Good Breakfast and Best Crew! Special thanks to Pathum, Sanjeever and Ranjit for making our stay feel special. Always with a smile and happy to be of assistance round the clock!! I will come back again and see you guys again when im back in Galle next time!! See you guys!!

The Bartizan is situated right by the Rampart. Everything is easily accessible from the hotel. Our room (a suite) was spacious and comfortable, and had a great view of the sea. Much could be done to improve the facilities in the room. For example, a table or two, a surface for the fridge (one has to bend down to the floor to use it), more hooks to hang towels and clothes in the bathroom, a deeper shelf in the bathroom on which one might place a toiletry bag, shaver and so on. There were enough plug points! No TV, which is a good thing! It would be good if the hotel obtained a liquor licence and stocked a bar. There is a great little roof terrace from where on can see the sunset. The whole place could do with a lick of paint, and the damp patches could be treated. Generally, the place is in need of some loving care, but it is still charming. Minor touches and improvements will make a big difference. Breakfast in the courtyard was great. Fruit of all kinds to start with followed by a choice of what one preferred; continental, Sri Lankan. Plenty of restaurants nearby for lunch and dinner: the hotel does not provide any meals after breakfast. The staff were all tremendous; they were friendly and most helpful. All the best to Andrew and the team. I am sure the recent arrival of Andrew will make a big difference, and the place will improve.

Wonderful stay. We had the room with a terrace overlooking the sea so had a glorious view of the sunset. The room was small but very nicely decorated with all the facilities we needed and a comfortable bed. The staff were delightful, very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was amazing
