Princely House Apartment

je krijgt een heel appartement met slaapkamer eetkamer keuken en badkamer met een terrasje alle voorzieningen waren prima de arico alleen in de slaapkamer de host is vriendelijk

we hadden al die ruimte beter teruggezien in een grotere slaapkamer het matras was erg spartaans

Very nice budget accommodation, with including a small kitchen. Rooms were clean and breakfast was good!

We had a great stay! The owner was super nice and very helpful, the apartment was clean, warm water and the air conditioning worked very well (cooled down the bedroom super fast, best what we have during our trip). It’s bit far from the fort-main attraction (as expected from the maps) but the location is decent. Overall great value for money and would stay there again!

Wonderful host, who is very accommodating and gives good advice on where/when to visit places in Galle. The hosts were generous to share their New Year’s traditional food with us which was very tasty and kind of them!! The apartment is very nice and spacious so perfect for a couple. In a peaceful neighbourhood. The breakfast is nice and simple sri lankan food.

位置很好，房间干净，空间很大，很安静，适合度假旅游居住

有燃气灶，但实际没有燃气。

离火车站1.5km;离galle古城3km

Gar Nichts, discrimination Uber die einheimischen,mein Freundinnen kommt aus Sri Lanka,so bald sie gesehen haben waren sie komische,die verhalten waren sehr frag würdigen!!!! Das was in der booking.com steht ist gar nichts vorhanden.

Unfreundlich sehr sehr unfreundlich.nichts zu empfehlen!!!!!! Enge Strassen kein Parkplatz wie in der Angebot stand, Nichts zu empfehlen,

It’s a really nice place to stay a bit away from the city hustle. It has lovely balcony where you can see fireflies during the night. The breakfast ist very good and everything is working perfect at this place. Also the owner is super friendly and always there if you need any help.

Fair price with everything u might need , tasty breakfast and kind host.

During a rush day I was looking for a place to stay in Galle, So I stumbled upon this wonderful place neatly tucked up on a hilly street. I went there and I was greeted warmly by the host, he is extremely friendly and willing to help whatever the query you may have. The establishment is kept very clean and has a whole apartment to yourself. The washroom is clean and there is a kitchenette, the room is spotless with great air conditioning. Also there is a separate sitting area with dining with all the cutleries and plates you might need. If you're in Galle, if you feel a little lost like I did, Head over here, this will definitely be your home away from home.

Nous avons passe 3 jours super le patron a ete aux petits soins pour nous reservation de tuk tuk de taxi et de bon conseil pour rejoindre negombo nous avons dine 2soirs sur place c etait delicieux felicitations a madame

The high score reflects the pleasure we had in meeting and chatting with the wonderful host, professor Renuka De Silva, whose command of English language is outstanding and who is very interesting to engage in conversation. The property is large and spacious, and although a little out of the city is not too far to walk, eg, to the fort, but a bit of a hike if one were carrying a backpack. It is opposite a mosque which during Ramadan, is the site of some nighttime celebrations, but we were not disturbed as the bedroom is at the rear of the property. Breakfast, made by the host was good, consisting of omelets, aappa, and fruit. The fittings are a little dated, but the rental represents exceptional value for money, especially given the space. Air conditioning of the bedroom was very efficient, cooling the compact space very quickly. There is a kitchen available for guests with a kettle, toaster and fridge, which together with the sitting area and balcony, make the property ideal for a longer stay to explore the area.

Nothing, nada.

房东非常友善，一到达就事无巨细告诉我关于这里所有的事情。房间的设施齐全，我在这里住了三晚，每天的早餐都不同，丰富而且可口。 地理位置优越，门口就有公交到达不同的地方，走过去火车站也才十几分钟，附近还有一家大型超市可以采购。

El matrimonio es muy amable y simpático. Nos preguntaron qué queríamos de desayunar. El apartamento es grande: tiene una sala con ventilador, una mesa y sillas para comer, un sofá, una terraza donde se puede tender la ropa, cocina, un baño grande y un dormitorio con estantes para colocar las cosas. En la habitación hay aire acondicionado. En el baño, el agua de la ducha salía templada y tiene presión. La wifi iba muy bien, la mejor que hemos tenido en el país. Que tenga lavadora es un plus. Nos dejaron salir un poquito más tarde para tener tiempo de ver el centro histórico.

La cama es más bien dura pero volveríamos a alojarnos aquí, no sería un impedimento.

Bir artı bir daire Aile için çok uygun.Bir kişiye çok büyük! Yardım sever ev sahibi.

Verilen paraya göre şikayet etmek için bir sebep yok.

Alles der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit Er hat uns viel geholfen. Mit seiner Hilfe haben wir immer wenig bezahlt Frühstück war sehr gut ausreichend regional und Original meist von seinem Garten jeden Tag etwas neues Abendessen bei ihm empfehlenswert

We had a lovely apartment with a bedroom, bathroom and kitchen with a sink, fridge, stove and amenities. Our host Renuka was extremely friendly, he answered all our questions and helped us plan transport. Would highly recommended staying here! We also did ring making and visited a turtle hatchery and beach within a short walk. There was room in the room or on the balcony to stretch and do yoga. Thanks so much Renuka

Nothing

Blízko starého města, z terasy bytu (opravdu ložnice, kuchyňka, jídelna a koupelna) koukám do stromů a palem, opice mi skáče nad hlavou že stromů na střechu, ptáci skoro přehlušují ruch ulice... Čisto, útulno, velmi příjemný majitel, skvělá snídaně až "domů" Vřele doporučuji a děkujeme

Clean, quiet and comfortable small apartment about 20 minute walk from the train station. The air con was fabulous and a small refrigerator in the kitchen was great to have. Nice breakfasts and the host also provides dinner for a very reasonable price… was delicious!

Wifi was a bit spotty but the owner did try to solve this issue. Be advised there is a 10% fee attached that doesn’t show on booking.com but as the apartment was reasonably priced , I didn’t mind.

The apartment was clean and spacious with everything we needed We had a very warm welcome from the hosts who helped us with any queries we had. We enjoyed talking with them. The Dutch Fort was very close, walking or a tuk-tuk. We enjoyed our stay at Princely House

There wasn’t anything

All breakfas,t Dinner very clean apartment and Helpfulness Owners. Simply everything is perfect.

Very friendly host, he gave us a lot of travel trips and restaurant recommonsations. The appartment was very clean, the airconditioning is really good, and in the morning you get a lovely homemade breakfast. Overall, a wonderful homestay!

Propriétaires très gentils qui nous ont donné d’excellentes recommandations. Emplacement idéal pour marcher dans Galle (15 minutes du fort). Bons déjeuners. La suite était une belle surprise car nous pensions seulement avoir une chambre. A/C qui fonctionne très bien. Parking pour notre tuktuk. Je reviendrais sans hésiter!

We loved the spacious apartment and enjoyed sitting on our terrace in the evening. The bathroom was well equipped and the shower was warm. A mosquito net was provided and the air conditioning was effective. Our host, Renuka, was amazing. He was a pleasure to talk to and we very much enjoyed his company. We chatted on arrival and the day of departure. He gave us information about our onward travel. We very much enjoyed talking to him. Renuka provided a nice breakfast of fresh fruit and eggs too. There were cooking facilities and a fridge in the property. Tea bags were provided too - nice touch! The property is a 20 minute walk from Galle Bus and Train station. We walked to and from the fort. We felt totally safe throughout our stay. We highly recommend this property.

We are sad we only had one night! We’d have liked to stay more!

Endroit spacieux.

Le draps etait taché de plusieurs taches marron. Pas d’eau à disposition, même pour le petit-déjeuner, si nous voulions du thé c’était à nous d’aller l’acheter la veille.

オーナーはとても親切で、朝食もとても美味しかったです。 ホテルにはない魅力があり、良い意味で「スリランカ人のお宅に泊まっている」ような感覚でした。閑静な住宅地にあり、落ち着ける安心感のある空間です。 ミニキッチンやミニ冷蔵庫に加え、自由に使えるリビングダイニングルームやバルコニーも完備。バスルームはシャワーの水圧がやや弱めでしたが、温かいお湯がしっかり出てリラックスできました。 スリランカでは珍しいヘアドライヤーも備わっており、ベッドルームのエアコンの効きも良好。オーナーの「お客様に快適に過ごしてほしい」という気持ちが随所から伝わってきます。新築のお家ではありませんが、部屋の隅々までよく清掃されており、大変清潔なお家でした。 新しさやピカピカの内装を求めない方にとっては、コストパフォーマンスの良い宿だと思います。

特に不満はありません。 最新設備を求めなければ、十分快適に過ごせる宿だと思います。 良くなかった点よりも良かった点の方がはるかに数多くある宿でした。

Es un apartamento entero y tiene terraza. El dueño es muy amable y te ayuda con todo lo que necesites.

La gentilezza dei proprietari

The owner was very helpful. Great quiet location 15min walk to the fort and railway station.

The owner was a very polite, cheerful, and kind man who is also an English teacher — he was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The location is convenient, fairly close to the beach and local attractions. The bedroom had a perfectly working air conditioner, which made our night very comfortable. There was a separate kitchen where we could also see some awards and personal items that gave a nice touch of character to the place. It had a kettle, tea, and sugar available. Everything was very clean. There was also a separate bathroom. Outside, there was a large drying rack in the sun where we could hang all our wet clothes — and they dried quickly thanks to the sunny side.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like. Everything met or exceeded our expectations.

Perfect place... very nice...

The owner of the Appartment was very helpful and kind. To begin with, he helped me and guided me to the location with respect to the TUK and fare for the ride. He also suggested good eateries in Galle, along with places to visit. Breakfast also was very good, also helped in looking for a bike for rent. Most importantly, I was ill on my third day , due to some food poisoning by eating out, the host helped me in all way possible with respect to arranging the doctor next door, and food during for the remainder of my stay. Also the guest house has a small kitchen, rooms are clean, also a common washing machine. AC also in good working condition. Overall a good stay in the appartment, also price is worth the stay.

The apartment had everything we needed, was private and the shower etc. was good. Breakfast was very good. The location was great too - only a short walk (25 mins) from the fort and we never struggled with tuktuks to and from (either on PickMe or asking the Tuktuk drivers themselves).

We could’ve asked for another blanket as the aircon was so powerful (which you need in galle!)

This place is a gem! Two couples could be comfortable. Kitchen living room. Balcony. Convenient location. The host was phenomenal. He had so many tips and good information for us

It could have been cleaner. But I've never stayed in a vacation hotel that was actually clean.

Great stay and an easy recommendation to make. The apartment was spacious, clean, and welcoming. The host was incredible kind, knowledgeable, and was able to offer some great advice on the surrounding area. The location is a bit out the way (25 mins to bus/ train station and fort) but is only 10 mins away from a large supermarket and is very close to the sea which offers a stunning sun-set walk-in the evenings.

Location could be more central but it’s quite decent anyhow.

Clean and spacious apartment. Air conditioning was very good. Good location in a residential area. It’s a bit away from Galle fort but can be easily accessed (2 km walk or short ride by tuk tuk). The host Mr Renuka was very kind to offer a Sri Lankan breakfast and was very helpful in providing advise and arranging of transportation. Overall, a pleasant experience.

If you are looking for a budget accommodation near Galle Fort, this is a good pick. The host is extremely welcoming and helpful. The apartment is basic, but clean. Wifi was good and AC worked like a dream. Here you have everything you need. It's a residential area and a good neighborhood, so you can feel safe.

Limited space to unpack your luggage. We didn't want to keep suitcases open on the floor, as there were tiny ants. Tips for future guests: -It can be a hassle to return to the accommodation from the Fort on tuktuk. Local drivers charge at least triple compared to PickMe. -Beaches near (Jungle beach, Dewata) are not in good condition, I would not recommend visiting them. Beach in Thalpe is good 👍🏻

Awesome location. Fantastic host. Best breakfasts. Space was huge, clean and functional. Nothing negative whatsoever. A 20 minute walk or $1 tuk tuk to Galle Fort

Huge room with balkony! Small fridge to cool some groceries. Possible to do your laundry for a reasonable price. 15 minutes walk to Galle fort, only place in Sri Lanka where we could actually comfortably walk on a sidewalk.

I had a wonderful stay at Princely House Apartments. The apartment is small but cozy, with a comfortable one-bedroom setup, and it’s conveniently located not too far from Galle's main attractions. It's truly great value for money. Renuka, the owner, was an exceptional host. He went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and was always available with helpful information about the area. I highly recommend staying here!

The apartment was very clean and our host was extremely welcoming. The airconditioning worked exceptionally and the apartment is well suited for short and long stays equipped with a kitchen, bathroom , dining room and breakfast is included. Breakfast was also something to mention everything was very fresh.

We recommend this place to everyone. We took an extra day because the place was cozy and the location was good. Everything worked beyond our expectations. The host himself was super friendly and helped us with travel planning. Tasty breakfasts. A place to feel good!

It is spacious and the owner is very friendly and helpful with all kinds of tourists’ needs. The air conditioning kept us comfortable and the washing machine let us get caught up with laundry.

There aren’t any restaurants in the neighborhood, just a friendly roti place with good food.

The property was very clean and well-maintained, with a cozy and comfortable ambiance. The location was convenient, and the host was incredibly hospitable and accommodating. The breakfast was delightful, featuring fresh and local ingredients, which added a nice touch to the experience. The apartment had all the necessary amenities, and the peaceful surroundings made the stay even more enjoyable.

There wasn’t anything major to dislike

Everything was great. The room has a nice AC and it's clean. There is a center area to dine, kitchen and toilet with shower. The host was helpful to coordinate our transports to and from the apartment.

It is a big apartment with all what you need. The breakfest was delicate. We got great tips for visting the surrounding of Galle. Thanks 😃

I stayed for one day . It’s an apartment in the first floor with bed room airconditioned , dining room and a kitchen and also have a terrace balcony . If you are a small family and wants an accommodation it’s very cost effective option . Breakfast also was good and more than sufficient quantity . Owner was very nice and really helpful . He helped me to find bus timing from Galle to Kandy . Thank you . 🙏( if anyone going from Galle to Kandy you can take the bus which depart at 2.20 from Galle . You need to be there at 1.30 and stand in the queue to make sure you get the seat )

Overall it was good . It’s in a residential area . Just that the restaurants are not very near . 15 minutes walk .

Very friendly host with great breakfast, amazing value for money.

No hot water.

The host is attentive to your needs and very friendly and helpful, the place is clean and comfortable, I highly recommend!

A wonderful Host, the service and breakfast was always more then we could eat. we became ideas where to go and what to see, very helpful. We only can recommend this place.

Good position, very welcoming and helpful owner who speaks a very good English, he did his best to make my short stay the best and helped me with the planning of my trip,m. Aircon much appreciated

Breakfast was ok but did not match my preferences (I favour a sweet breakfast, but the one offered was a traditional Sri Lankan one so it’s fine).

Spacious, well-equipped. Host was very nice. We used washer which was nice too and had a whole personal kitchen and living room.

It is quite far from the fort, but walkable distance. We asked for breakfast very early ajd probbaly that was reason, but there were tons of flies around our breakfast! I dont know for sure, but most probably because of this I got a severe food poisoning for next several days :(. Food ahould be covered from flies.

Fully furnished apartment, with AC and fan -- it was nice to have lots of space. Chatty owner full of recommendations and perfect English. And you can hear monkeys at night :D

Very nice apartments with fully functional kitchen, AC and dining area. We booked breakfast and can only recommend it. Parking is also possible in the garage. The home owner is very kind and told us a lot about Sri Lankan history and the best places to go.

The apartment is great. Very clean and had everything we needed. Very good value for money. A delicious breakfast was served. The owner is a very kind person. Highly recommended.

Homestay with a kitchenette and separate eating area to the bedroom. Managed by a friendly man who is always around and willing to help. Kettle, refrig and the free use of their washing machine. Good breakfast which changed daily. Apparently there is a 10% additional service charge written into the fine print on my invoice which I wasn't aware off. Renuka had no qualms about foregoing this when I told him I had only budgeted for the invoice amount.

It is 1.5km from the fort and train station which you can walk or tuk tuk to but otherwise nothing to complain about.

The apartment was great. Big comfortable and had everything you'd need. The breakfast delicious, the wifi strong and the location good. Renuka the owner was super friendly and lovely to talk to. Plus very helpful with some travel planning and local recommendations.

Nothing

The apartment is very cozy, the host is wonderful hospitable, breakfast is amazing. I had a great time in Galle. I will definitely come back and stay here. Thanks again for everything

The host was very friendly and helpful, he was flexible with the arrival time and I could leave my bags at their place after I checked out. The breakfast was also delicious!

/

The owner is a wonderful person and help us about everything we need. It’s the second time I have stayed in his apartment and I hope I’ll repeat again.

I have an apartment. Friendly owner makes breakfast for me.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Very nice guesthouse and very hospitable hosts. We had an excellent breakfast and dinner upon request. Thank you!:)

Nothing

The property owner is really enthusiastic and helpful. We can use the entire apartment space which is very large.

Floor and utensils not cleaned. Electricity was on and off at night in that district so be prepared for this.

Good sized apartment, equipped with a washing machine which is free for guests to use! Very friendly and helpful hosts

Shower was a little cold!

I had a fantastic stay at this hostel! It's impeccably clean with a serene atmosphere that's perfect for relaxing. The owner is incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring a warm welcome and offering great local tips. I Highly recommended!

Great stay in Galle, amazing hospitality and a lovely breakfast. We will recommend to others.

Nothing

Cheap og big

Very nice place, the owner is really nice and i have a good chat with him. Breakfast was omelet and SriLankan local food at your choice with much fruits. Lovely surroundings. Location is very good - 5 mins tuk tuk to the fort or 10 minutes walking. Near to the beach - walking distance. The bedroom is comfortable and clean with AC and fan and with an excellent bathroom and great shower. Laundry machine is available but I didn't use. The kitchen is amazing with refrigerator, coffee machine and cooking facilities. My plan was to stay for two nights but it endup with 4 nights. Definitely I will come again

Everything was perfect here. The host is very kind and helpful. I get to the hotel quite late in the evening. The host go out and bring me dinner and help me a lot with the city. The breakfast is great. Will definitely stay again next time.

none

Renuka is a kind and friendly host. He greeted me on arrival and we had a nice chat. The property itself is in close walking distance to the fort and station. I was made breakfast the following morning which he let me request which was lovely (Sri Lankan hoppers). For the price, having your own spaces to cook and eat in a popular area is rare and for a solo traveller from the UK, aged 25 it was perfect.

N/A

The accommodation is spacious and well-equipped with everything you need. The breakfast options were great, with vegan choices available upon request. I was even able to suggest my preferred breakfast items, which was a delightful touch.

Despite the owner's friendly demeanor, we didn't quite click/vibe with them, which may simply be a matter of personal preference. Additionally, we noticed that both the floor and fan were not as clean as we would have liked.

Mr. Renuka is a kind, knowledgeable and friendly host. The property is located in a peaceful neighborhood close to the railway station and the bus stand. The apartment is spacious, has air conditioning, a washing machine, a comfortable bed, a dinning area, easy chairs and a kitchen with a gas stove and refrigerator. Nice clean bathroom too. Delicious meals are available on request, and the Wi-Fi speed was good too. My father and I were very satisfied with our stay at this property and with our host who is also a greatconversationalist. Highly recommended.

We didn't have any reason to complain as everything we were told was available and operational.

The host, Renuka, was very welcoming, friendly, hospitable and loved to chat. Renuka gave me brilliant advice of how to get to the various beaches using the Galle-Matara bus and this helped me beach-hop cheaply on my second day there. I had the whole floor to myself which included a large dining/living room area leading to a balcony terrace, a separate cooking area, a large bathroom and a bedroom. The air-conditioning in the bedroom was superb as was the comfortable bed. Renuka was very attentive to my needs at all times and was a brilliant host. Regarding location, it was a 5-minute tuk-tuk ride to Galle Railway Station and Bus Station and a 7-minute journey to the entrance of Galle Fort. I walked to Galle Fort in 15 minutes. There is a supermarket within 10-minutes walking distance from the apartment.

The kitchen area could have been cleaner and there was not much suitable crockery, like bowls, in the cupboard.

So after 4 weeks in Sri Lanka this is the nicest place we have stayed. It’s actually an apartment with kitchen, dining area, bathroom and bedroom. It has AC, fans and mosquito net on the bed (not that we saw many mosquitoes). The owner is just the nicest man you could ever meet; very friendly, very helpful and just lovely to chat to. He also let us use the washing machine which was very welcome after 3 months of hand washing clothes. It’s a short walk to the fort (about 1.2km) or about 200-300 rupees in a tuktuk. Breakfast was very tasty and plentiful. Everything was spotlessly clean and the bed was very comfortable. This was a great find, thank you very much for hosting us!

We had a great time in Galle thanks to our host. Nice big room with area for breakfast and separate bathroom. Everything was clean and comfy. Very tasty breakfast homemade. We recommend

Our host Renuka was very friendly and accommodating. He prepared breakfast for us daily and asked us for our preferences each time. Renuka also very helpful and gave great advice regarding travel hints and transport arrangements.

The apartment was very roomy, perfectly clean and very comfortable to stay in. It’s a short walk from Galle Central Bus Stand up a well lit road. Bedroom is super comfy, great air con, mosquito net and we had a great night sleep. Bathroom is the nicest we’ve had in Sri Lanka. Renuka (host) was an absolute pleasure to meet and made us feel at home and is a perfect host. We had an early flight and Renuka even made breakfast for us and got up when we did, absolute legend! In terms of value for money, this is one of if not the best we’ve experienced.

Nothing to note

The apartment is spacious and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. But what really makes this place 10 out of 10 is its kind and friendly owner. I recommend this place to everyone.

Nothing to mention

We didn't expect it's an apartment with kitchen and dining area. This is cleanest bathroom we had throughout our stay. The host was so nice to prepare breakfast for us to takeaway for our early departure.

The air con was kind of loud, probably will help after doing service.

Very good hotel! Very sweet host! He even takes English classes at the moment to be able to help his guests even better!
