The hotel is well situated, well staffed, especially the Executive chef, Restaurant manager, and food and drinks manager. The spacious rooms, though well appointed, have a flaw in that there is tottally inadequate lighting in the area where guest would be expecting to sit and read. The literature in the room offers 'Whale watching' operated by the Sri Lanka Navy.... More

My husband and i stayed at The Fortress- Koggala last weekend for two nights and had a wonderful stay! As we arrived we were greeted by the friendly staff with a cool drink and cold towel..they even knew our names before we could announce ourselves! The check in was done in the room and by the time we walked to... More

This hotel is built to five star standards in a five star spot, but parts of the business just don't match such a star rating. We stayed for 12 nights in January 2012. Our room was a Fortress room without a sea view. It was vast, well appointed and lacking in nothing. The room was clean and well serviced including... More

All the extra personal touches we wanted, she was very accommodating. We chose the... More

We stayed in one of the beach suites on the ground floor, opening out into the gardens in front of the sea and close to the swimming pool. The room was... More

We stayed in this hotel for 8 nights - a lovely hotel, maybe a bit faded but certainly did not affect our enjoyment and ongoing refurb. i.e patch painting white columns was surreptitious and did not interrupt guests. The only minor complaint I would have is the hotel restaurant which is expensive and limited choice especially ifmyou stay at the... More

This hotel is very good (room, swimming pool area) but the service is 3star. The restaurant service is very desorganized and at the swimming pool facilities also. The worst thing was on the last day, just when were living the hotel to the airport, we saw that was missing money. Our luggage stayed a few hours in a office near... More

Beautiful grounds, fantastic rooms with a wow factor and very friendly staff. However, limited choice at restaurant and nearest local restaurants are a 15 minute tuk tuk drive away. More
