Great location in the old fort area with everything in walking distance.
Our upstairs room was spacious with a view of the Indian Ocean.
The breakfast was exceptional. Plenty of fruit, juice, eggs, toast and jams.
Tea and coffee were provided anytime during the day by the attentive staff.
Would definitely stay here again.

Nice big old colonial house with spacious room.

We stayed at Fort Bliss for 2 nights. We had a great room with lots of space, big bathroom and very clean. The location is perfect for walking around town and it was quiet. Breakfast was abundant and delicious. The service was terrific. Overall, we were very happy with our selection. The hotel is in a big, colonial dutch house. The high ceilings add an extra nice touch.

Great convenient location on edge of the old city in the quiet section of town. Small boutique colonial style hotel full of charm at an acceptable cost for Galle. A trifle difficult getting large suitcases up narrow stairs if staff unavailable.
Rooms a little cramp but clean and well furnished, only downside no curtains on above window fan windows letting in lots of night lights that will bother a light sleeper.
Good professional staff, great breakfast and good prompt service.

Perfect place to relax

Fort Bliss is a wonderful place to stay in Galle. We were lucky to have the biggest room (number 1) with a four poster bed and a veranda. The staff were very attentive and caring and cooked wonderful breakfast. The location is perfect for shops, bars and restaurants. We would not hesitate to go there again or recommend it to our friends and relatives.

Great little place in wonderful location

I stayed February 1 for one night. I was tired of large resorts and thought Galle would be a nice town for a small hotel. I was right. Fort Bliss was charming, quiet and comfortable. The beautiful town and Fort were at my doorstep. Lovely architecture and amazing views all over this charming little town!!

Great location, friendly staff

Really enjoyed our stay at Fort Bliss. Such a brilliant location, it has everything you need right on your doorstep. The staff are excellent and really made the stay special. They couldn't do enough to help. Room was comfortable - lighting could be a bit brighter. Mosquitos were a nuisance (in all of Galle) although once cleared from the room (staff were great at providing sprays etc) then it seemed OK.

Great Stay, Great Staff, Great Location

とても雰囲気の良い宿泊施設です。
スタッフのスニールさんがとても親切に対応してくれました!
他のスタッフの方も非常に親切です!
朝食はフルーツがかなりボリューミーなので、あまりフルーツが得意じゃない方は、少なめにしてもらった方が良いです。
もしくは、フルーツジュースのみ。
スリランカ風のオムレツは最高でした!スニールさん特製の\"ジャパニーズソース\"を掛けて食べると最高です。

ホテルは海のすぐ近くで、灯台も歩いてすぐです。ぜひ、早起きして日の出を見に行かれるのをオススメします。

また、ホテル周辺(300m圏内)にはカフェやレストランがたくさんありますので、散歩がてらで色々と回れます。

Barefootもすぐ近くにあるので、コロンボに行く暇がない方には便利かと。

とにかくここのホテルはスタッフさんが最高です!

The stay is very good. You will have a decent stay here and warm welcome from their staff. The morning breakfast is delicious. The room is clean. The staff also helped me to find a tuk tuk and give me advice on reasonable price. Just one thing to improve: They need to add a curtain on the top window coz ppl on the 2nd floor may see inside the room and give lower privacy. This is also too bright without curtain and wake me up in the morning.
