Great location and friendly owners

Ideally located in Galle walled city and easy to find. Owners and staff were accommodating and facilities were good. Only discomfort was that the rooms have thin walls and could hear people in next room.

就在Galle Dutch Fort内，像是国内的小古城，但安静许多，店铺多，白天有游客，晚上基本没啥人，走出去2分钟就能看到印度洋，风景极佳。perfect location, clean room, stunning views within walking distance. The breakfast was amazing.

Good location, Bad rooms

They didn't find our booking when arrived, and no double room left, so they offered us a triple room. However, the room had many mosquito, the TV was malfunctioned. The wifi speed was too slow, I even couldn't receive email and browse website. The next day, they needed us moved to a double room which was not located in the same building. Not much mosquitoes this time, but the TV was still malfunctioned. And NO wifi and NO WATER SUPPLY in the midnight!! When I woke up to go toilet in the midnight, I found that no flushing water and no tap water to wash my hands!!!

When I woke up to go toilet in the midnight, I found that no flushing water and no tap water to wash my hands!!! No bottled water provided, and the breakfast was just so so. However the owners were nice and kind. The location of the hotel was quite good which was in the Fort and near the lighthouse. Generally speaking, the facilities were a bit old, not very clean. I think we could find a better one in the same budget.

Comfortable stay in an unbeatable location

We stayed at Frangipani Motel for one night in October 2017, and we're very pleased that we chose this place, due the excellent location,despite it being a little more expensive than other places we have stayed in Sri Lanka so far. Bit of confusion at check-in as the lady wanted a different booking number than the one we had through hotels.com, but was resolved swiftly - also got a free welcome drink which was much appreciated. The room was clean, bed was large with a mosquito net and air conditioning worked well. Only downside was the toilet seat was very stained. Breakfast was lovely, huge teapot of tea and coffee, lots of toast, marmalade, big fruit platter and fried eggs.

Central to Galle Fort but not comfortable

Galle is beautiful and we'll worth a visit. Lots of lovely restaurant choices and walking around the wall is very pretty. Fragipani is in the heart of Galle Fort and couldn't be much more centrally located. However, it was a very uncomfortable night. The beds and pillows were hard, the bed we had was HUGE but there was only one small thin blanket for us both to share, barely covered us! The room was clean, with a bit of fiddling with the equipment we managed to have a warm shower. Wifi didnt work in the rooms, needed to be used in the comunal areas. The night included breakfast, nice Sri Lankan tea, nice array of fruits. Egg and toast wasnt great but is pretty standard. They wete kind however as we were late to breakfsst and still served us. We stayed somewhere outside the fort for our second night, 15 min tuk tuk ride which gave us a beach side hotel, 7th Sky Edyll, it was cheaper, more comfortable and a place where we could surf during the day and jump into a tuk tuk to head back to Galle Fort for drinks and dinner in the evening. If you like a great milkshake head to Pedlars Inn!
