Fortress was great. Loved the ambience and the crab tree amenities :) So much space for my little toddler to wonder around. Keep it up. More

We went to The Fortress with Virgin Holidays over April 2012. We booked into The Fortress for 14 nights. The trip cost in excess of £7000! No doubt about it, the location is outstanding. However, the quality of the rooms and hygiene of the hotel is appalling. On our third night, our party and three other parties contracted food poisoning... More

Having recently stayed at the Fortress Galle for 10 days I can honestly say we enjoyed our stay. The Hotel however is not quite 5* - maybe a 4* or 4*+. It is a very impressive building and the rooms are airy, comfortable and clean. The food is good but not excellent and breakfast is the weakest of all meals.... More

This is the second time we have visited the Fortress and could not have been happier with the experience. This hotel is an oasis in a vibrant, topsy turvey country, the standards are high and the expense is definately worth it. We had been travelling for 10 days before we arrived and were ready for the luxury and pampering we... More

The sea view rooms are very well located with an excellent view of the sea across the large pool. The entire concept of Dutch style tall pillars around a large courtyard adds character to "The Fortress" hotel. The staff are all very helpful and friendly and the restaurant serves a great selection of meals. There are plenty of common areas... More

That's what we all said when we walked through the big gates and caught the sight and smell of the sea. This hotel is to die for! Perfect mix of modern minimalist style and old fashioned pampering. The attention to detail and service is exceptional. The open plan eating & reception areas allow for the breeze to pass through so... More

We stayed at The Fortress at the end of a tour of Sri Lanka. Walking through the gateway we entered an environment of peace, calm, luxury and excellent service. Our room was huge and well appointed and we were like children pressing buttons and trying everything out. It was only a few short steps from our verandah into the wonderfully... More

We didn't stay at the hotel but we arranged a lunch there for my daughters 5th birthday, the food was amazing as was the service. They arranged a cake for her and the waiters all stood around and and sang happy birthday to her which was very sweet . If you come to Sri Lanka and you are in the... More

have just come back from a two week holiday at the fort, what a gr8 place, watching the turtles swimming in the lagoon for your sun bed in a awesome setting. The Fort is not cheap for SriLanka but a evening meal starts at 1500 rupees and a beer is 450 what with the exchange rate being 198 believe m... More
