Review by hotel critic
My recent stay at Old Dutch House was an unforgettable experience, thanks in large part to the warm hospitality of the owner, who made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The cozy atmosphere combined with the charm of the family-run establishment provided a unique sense of comfort and authenticity that modern hotels often miss. I particularly enjoyed the delightful outdoor dining area, where we savored a fantastic breakfast amidst a serene garden setting, perfectly complemented by the rich flavor of Sri Lankan coffee. With its prime location in the heart of Galle Fort, we found ourselves just a short stroll from all the main attractions, making it an ideal base for exploration. It's truly a gem of a place that offers remarkable value for money, making it a must-visit for anyone traveling to the area.
