    The rooms at Thambili House Galle Fort are like cozy havens, perfect for a laid-back vacation with friends. I loved the soundproofed walls, ensuring a peaceful stay. The free WiFi and room service were a fantastic addition, making our stay even more convenient. The bathrooms, equipped with shower/tub combinations, bathrobes, and complimentary toiletries, made us feel pampered and relaxed. The suite with a balcony, bathtub, and air conditioning was a definite highlight, providing a lovely space to unwind after a day of exploring.

    One feature I liked less was that some suites only had a balcony without a bathtub. But hey, that's just my personal preference, and others might still enjoy the balcony-only option.

    Had a fantastic New Year getaway! The staff were amazing, always there to help and even upgraded our room. Loved the location, so close to all the best spots in town. The pool was a refreshing oasis and we had it all to ourselves. Spotless rooms and breathtaking ocean views. Breakfast was delicious!

    Only downside was the initial mix-up with our late arrival. No one was there and we had to stay elsewhere for the night.

    We had such an amazing stay at this beautiful property. The staff were incredibly attentive and always had a smile on their faces. They even allowed us to check out later due to our late flight. The rooms were spacious and the beds were so comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and made with fresh ingredients. The location was perfect, with the lighthouse and great restaurants just a short walk away. we highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    Thambili House Galle Fort By Edwards Collection is a charming hotel in Galle that I had the pleasure of staying at during a recent business trip. The hotel was chosen by our director, and I must say, it was a fantastic choice.

    I did encounter a minor issue with the air conditioning, as it was not working properly.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff was incredibly kind and always available to help. They went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and even served me large cold beers. The property itself is stunning, with high ceilings and tastefully decorated rooms. It truly felt like having my own luxury villa for a few days. There was plenty of space downstairs to relax and enjoy the surroundings. My room was nicely appointed, featuring a comfortable four-poster bed and a good bathroom. The little touches, like chilled towels on arrival and cold drinks, made my stay extra special. The breakfast was lovely, and the chef at dinner was excellent. the staff, the historic building, and the amenities made this hotel a truly wonderful experience.

    Nothing all good.

    Had a blast staying at this lovely colonial villa. Loved the free bicycles, delicious restaurant, and the refreshing outdoor pool. Oh, and guess what? I even got a free bottle of wine! How fancy!

    Sharing a communal kitchen? No thanks, I'll pass on that masterchef experience.

    I gotta say, we really got our money's worth at this place. The room was amazing and the staff treated us like VIPs. The location was just perfect too, right in the heart of everything.

    As for the breakfast selection, I wish they had more variety to choose from.

    You can dive into the vibrant ocean and explore the underwater world, or go cycling around the area to discover the beauty of the surroundings. And if you want to stay connected, the hotel provides free and fast Wi-Fi, so you can surf the web and share your wonderful family moments with ease.

    My children wanted more outdoor activities for families with children.

    This property offers luxurious rooms with AC, fan, amazing shower, and a fabulous bath tub. The sunset view from the balcony is breathtaking. The staff is welcoming and friendly, and the service is top-notch. The pumpkin soup for dinner was excellent. The plunge pool is a great spot to relax. Dulip, the chef, made us feel like friends and shared interesting stories about the area. The hotel is highly recommended.

    Felt like a home away from home, no complaints.

    We recently stayed at Thambili House and had a wonderful experience. The design of the house and the overall atmosphere were exceptional. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and the breakfasts were delicious. Despite the slightly higher price, having two rooms to ourselves gave us a sense of exclusivity. The furniture and bed facilities were top-notch, and we loved our sweet with a beautiful sea view and terrace. The location was perfect and the historic details of the building added to its charm. The small swimming pool looked inviting, and we would have loved to use it if the weather had cooperated.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.

    I absolutely loved the decor of Thambili House. The beautiful antique furniture and traditional Sri Lankan artwork added a touch of elegance and charm to the hotel. The general areas were well maintained and provided ample seating for relaxation. As a senior woman, I appreciate that the hotel was easily accessible with no stairs or uneven surfaces to navigate.

    I would have appreciated a brighter lighting in the hotel's corridors and common areas to aid in my visibility.

    The location of this hotel is fantastic, with many sights, restaurants, and bars within a short walk. Guests can easily explore the area and experience the vibrant atmosphere of the city. The staff at the hotel are attentive and always willing to assist guests with their needs. The rooms are beautifully decorated and provide a cozy and comfortable stay. Facilities such as the pool are a great way to relax and cool off after a long day of exploring.

    There is one aspect of the hotel that could be improved, which is the water pressure in the bathrooms. The pulsating water and occasional trickling can be frustrating for guests trying to shower or wash their hands.

    The room at Thambili House Galle Fort By Edwards Collection was absolutely amazing! I loved the cozy balcony where I could just sit and relax. The bathtub was also a great addition, perfect for a luxurious soak after a long day exploring the city. The air conditioning was a lifesaver in the hot weather. it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    I wasn't a big fan of the shower/tub combination in the bathroom. It felt a bit cramped and not very convenient.

    The location was perfect, allowing us to easily explore the sights, restaurants, and bars within a short walk. The pool was a favorite spot for our children to cool off in the heat. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, providing exceptional service and catering to our every need. We thoroughly enjoyed our spacious and well-equipped room, which made our family feel right at home. we loved the boutique feel of the property and the warm atmosphere it provided for our entire family.

    For dads, it would be great if the attic bedroom had a frosted door to offer more privacy when staying with friends.
