Amangalla

I recently visited amangalla for a drink late afternoon. What a lovely experience it was :) the staff member who served me was amazing! Dumith (and I apologise if this spelling is wrong!) Was so welcoming, friendly, and professional. He is a real asset to the place. My 2 cocktails were delicious, and the environment is absolutely gorgeous. I would highly recommend amangalla 😀

OMG. Where to start.. I don't even know how to. My words will not do the experience my family and I enjoyed here justice. What I can say it's exquisitely beautiful, with such incredible attention to detail. Our suite was huge. The pool and cabanas and the ever attentive attendants who kept us hydrated. Oh, and I have to mention the chefs homemade chilli sauce, served warm. WOW! Ask for it at breakfast, you won't be disappointed. What I think made this all the more special was that my sister (solo traveller) was staying at a neighbouring property but was welcomed in to join us in our suite for pre-dinner drinks, to relax by the pool with us, and even be included on departure day with the farewell gift my wife and Mum received. It would have made a big difference to our own stay if she had been not welcome. It's all the 'little' things that make the biggest of differences, and this place made the hugest impact on us all and as a family, so much so that we still talk about it every time we have seen each other since returning to Perth. We cannot thank the team enough for going above and beyond. We are Aman converts and cannot wait to try another one soon!! Istuti

We stayed 2 night here at Amangalla in a suite room (#21) as the conclusion of our Sri Lanka trip, and we wouldn't do it any other way. The hotel is steeped in history, it was more like living in a museum rather than staying at a hotel. We love hotels with a sense of place and history, and Amangalla certainly delivers on it. Arrival was a tiny bit chaotic, as far as Amans go, but it's not really a big issue. We were warmly welcomed by our fantastic butler, Bathum, and we did the oil lamp rituals. He then gave us a nice tour around the hotel before showing us our lovely suite (#21), which had a garden view only but it nicely tucked in a corner so it's very quiet and private, which we loved. He also did the galle fort tour and the cinnamon estate visit with us, both of which we would highly recommend. In terms of F&B, this is a stand out and possibly the best of the 9 Amans we have been to, which is quite something because food is normally not the strongest suit for Amans. Late check out and airport transfer were smoothly handled by our butler. We would definitely return to this property again, and will combine it with Amanwella next time.

Was here for one night only. Amangalla lies within the ramparts of Sri Lanka’s 17th-century Galle Fort, a Unesco World Heritage Site. With views of the Fort and harbour on one side and the hotel’s lush gardens and swimming pool on the other, the historic residence presents lofty-ceilinged suites, elegant dining and a tranquil experience. All rooms are gig size with high ceilings. Hospitality here is unmatched. Each room has a private butler who is available 24/7 for you. We are pure vegetarian and the chef made dosa and sambhar for us for breakfast and the in the evening tea also we had eggless scones and some nice sandwiches. The sitting are overlooking the street is the best place to enjoy your drinks and meals. Had a great experience

We visited the hotel for dinner on our last night in Galle. The atmosphere and quality of the food was excellent and the service impeccable. We were looked after by Sureka, whose service and attention to detail was without fault making her an asset to the team at the hotel. Whilst we can’t comment on the other services offered by the hotel, we would highly recommend the hotel to anyone looking for a fine dining experience within the Galle Fort precinct.
