Fort Bliss was a wonderful establishment: centrally located, clean, comfortable and very well furnished. Breakfast was among the best I’ve had in SL. And Sunnil was just lovely.
This is an outstanding property, the location is fantastic for seeing the old city. The staff are among out top 3 of all our years of travel. They go out of their way to make a holiday the best it can be. We will definitely return snd stay here in the future.
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 location right in the heart of Galle Fort. Staff lovely, particularly Chef who couldnt do enough to help us. Rooms old Galle style, but quiet and comfortable. Breakfast freshly cooked and served, water each day. Great price. 3* but very nice.
Enjoyed our stay at this small friendly hotel very much. Staff helpful and breakfast very good. Conveniently situated in the centre of Galle Fort.

Perfect base in Galle Fort
Stayed just one night. Perfect base to explore the old fort. Basic but clean room, good air con and fan. Good shower and breakfast. W were also fortunate to get a sea view room
Great little place in the fort. Owner was very helpful arranging transport to the sea turtle farm and to the train station. Breakfast was really good - you won't need lunch after it :)
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.
A quaint and lovely place located in the middle of the Galle old town. The room is really good and completely value for money. The breakfast is especially good.
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.
Lovely comfortable hotel in an excellent location, and amazing breakfasts!

Quiet hotel, small room, we were on the ground level, next to the kitchen, might have been better on upper level. The room was fairly s,mall but adequate
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!!
