Context one night during the literature festival of Galle before 2 days business trip in Colombo (3rd time in Sri Lanka). It was hard to get a room for the weekend at a point I could not remember how I found Lady Hill Hotel. Anyway that was one of the poorest experience in Asia over 10-yr in terms of value... More

We stayed here for one night as part of a tour. The rooms are basic but provide some lovely views. The staff are very friendly and food was good. Basic hotel but a comfortable stay. More

We stayed in Galle for the last night of our recent 8 day tour of Sri Lanka. We didn't choose the Lady Hill (it was booked by our tour company) and we were dubious about previous reviews (we never choose the lowest ranked place!) but our abiding impression is of a characterful property with lovely staff who work hard to...

We chose to stay one night in Galle and opted for Lady Hill to avoid paying extortionately rising prices inside the fort. The local rate is killer cheap. I learned the hotel was previously a "mansion" the owners have now converted into a hotel. By International standards I would say this is an EXCELLENT 3 star hotel. Rooms are clean,... More

Hotel is 10 min walk up hill from Galle new town and only 200 rupee tuck tuck ride away. Slightly older hotel than most we have been too so the rooms are smaller and bathrooms slightly jaded. The roof top restaurant is lovely though very breezy - I would recommend this hotel and Galle which is quite different from other... More

We stayed one night here as part of a tour. It has a great view from the restaurant and it is within walking distance of the town. The rooms, however, are small and rather tired - there is room for improvement. More

"We absolutely loved our stay at Lady Hill. We were given the best room - 301 and it was a delight to watch the sunset and sunrise. All the staff were full of smiles and were attentive and helpful without being intrusive. The food was delicious. We enjoyed room service and the lovely breakfast with delicious coffee mmm... Thank you... More

This hotel was dirty, shabby and smelly the pillows were so dirty I could not lay on it without wrapping in a towel!The food was unappetising served by indifferent staff. The waiters turned the dining room lights out before we had even left! The room safe was locked the staff did not know how to open and this was quite... More

This hotel is based around a 19th century house, at the highest point in Galle, so from the rooftop bar you have a great view of the city and harbour. The rooms have a boutique feel, though there were some small problems like very stiff sliding doors and ants in the shower, and completely non-absorbent towels! There was a set-menu... More
