If you are looking for someone to give you a pedicure while another fans your face and feeds you chocolate truffles, go elsewhere, but the GFP is my favourite hotel in the Fort. It lacks the pretension of the Ammangalla and the Galle Fort Hotel, but remains stylish and comfortable. Gives the visitor a real taste of the culture of... more

We stayed in Fort Printers for 2 nights. It was a delight. Our room is just near the pool and we were worried that it will be very noisy. To our delight this was not the case. The room that we have stayed in was amazing. We love the setting and the bed is very comfortable. When we asked what... more

For Printers is a small boutique hotel right in the middle of Fort Galle town, and is a PEFECT location to feel comfortable and yet have the town very accessible for sampling Sri Lankan lifestyle. Having been in Sri Lanka for nearly two weeks, relaxed on a beach and felt pampered, it was time to sample life and take memories... more

We had a wonderful stay at this elegant, historical gem. It felt like we were in the midst of a renaissance novel, dripping with intrigue and culture, and sumerimposed with the most sumptuous food, wine and gracious service. We highly recoemmend, and will most certainly return, to this beautiful oasis. more

After a few days in the Frangipani we stayed at the Fort Printers Hotel in Galle. Completely different from the Frangipani (its sister hotel) but still a wonderful experience. Again the food was wonderful and the Manager Mr Warnathilaka was excellent arranging transport with Rohan of Sarota Travels. The trips organised were to our agenda and timetable and avoided the... more

Our recent travels in Asia evoked memories of our wonderful stay at this renovated gem located right in the middle of a living fort, Galle Fort. We stayed twice at this place during our long trip to Sri Lanka, first with our family from the UK and then again alone on our return trip from the highlands. Both stays were... more

This place was what one can only dream a Home can feel like. The delicacy in the surroundings is tingling to the soul. The beautifully decorated spacious rooms, the pool, the temple flowers, the birds, the Exquisite dinning (My best complements to the chef), the serenity and the absolute privacy make this stay an unforgettable experience. The staff is very... more

When I first arrived, I was pleasantly surprised. The images on the website do not the hotel justice. I simply fell in love with the place, the atmosphere, the staff, the swimming pool, the birds...The chef is another story and worth traveling all the distance for his exotic and unique meals. The staff will do absolutely anything for you(well, you... more

My girlfriend and I spent a wonderful 24 hours at the Fort Printers. Very reasonably priced by western standards, with an immaculately restored gleaming black morris minor parked outside. As soon as we walked into the place we realised this place was something special. A former school with vaulted ceilings, huge open spaces for relaxing and enjoying a cocktail and... more

We booked the Fort and Beach promotion and stayed for one night. Fort Printers is an old Dutch building which has been renovated as a 5 room boutique hotel. As you enter the place, as we did from a long drive and the eerily quiet streets of the fort in early hours of the morning, it feels like you have... more
