Amangalla Hotel Galle - Southwest Coast

The Amanagalla Horel Galle, Southwest Coast, is situated in the southern capital, standing amongst the shops of handmade lace and antique goods for which the city is famed. Located in the centre of the 17th century stone fort, the scenic colonial architecture of the surrounding narrow streets is just part of the charming experience. Rooms look out through French style window onto the gardens or the adjacent Groote Kerk (Great Church) and are lavishly decorated with beautiful antiques such as four poster beds. The culture themed library, swimming pool and luxury spa are sources of peaceful contemplation. The Handunugoda Tea Plantation is a delicious option for those who want to experience the local teas, and nature lovers can drive 30 minutes north of Galle to enjoy the virgin Hiyare Rainforest.

Number of Rooms: 29

The Great Hall, with indoor seating as well as seating on the veranda, serves light meals and snacks in the morning, as well as afternoon tea. The Dining Hall serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with an emphasis on local and home cooked meals.

Located within the walls of Galle Fort, the property is an amalgamation of many different buildings first brought together as Dutch military offices and later connected to create the New Oriental Hotel. After closing its doors, the property was taken over and completely redone to create what it is today.
