Featuring an outdoor swimming pool, a garden as well as a terrace, Asiri Yoga Retreat is located in the centre of Galle, a few steps from Boossa Beach.

Incredible views directly to the ocean. It couldn’t have been better. The sound of the waves was like a meditation to me- I slept really well. The space downstairs was perfect for the yoga session- really calming, with relaxing views and I truly enjoyed the yoga class. The owner is very friendly and helpful and advised us about beach and where we could park. In the hotel there’s a parking for 1 car only, so book in advance.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit. The town is small and some shops are repetitive, with the same items for sale, but there are a few unique shops and restaurants which make a visit worthwhile. Sunsets are beautiful; walk along the top of fort walls. Take a tuk tuk to the local fish market just outside of town for vibrant local life and walk back. We stayed overnight which made the visit more relaxing.

    Galle is a city with a combination of a Dutch period fort and beach with all modern facilities. Dutch Fort is a very live well, reserved place with excellent attractions and choices. Walking over the museums and art galleries located in preserved ancient buildings is an excellent experience. fairly good nightlife available with ample choices of fine dining. within Fort, they charge higher prices due to high tourist demand. yet affordable eateries, supermarkets and facilities are available out of Fort within walking distance. Also people in Galle are very friendly, professional and helpful .

    I was pleasantly surprised when I entered the hotel. It is well designed and the staff was very friendly. The room & bathroom were really clean and comfortable. I also felt really safe there which is a big deal for a solo female traveler. They were even good enough to offer to keep my bags with them until I finished some work in Galle after I checked out. Really thoughtful of them! They kept my bags safe and sound until I returned later that day to collect my bags. They even returned some earrings that I had unknowingly left in my room :)

    This was my 2nd visit to the property. This is true gem in the heart of Galle. Surrounded out of the hustle and bustle and only 5min away from the fort by tuk-tuk. Nestled in nature, gorgeous swimming pool and stunning terrace with reading areas . It’s a true boutique style hotel with gorgeous Sri Lankan artifacts spread accross. If you want a solitude getaway, but still be connected to town I can’t recommend this more. Thank you to the incredible staff who went out of their way for everything.

    This is a beautiful heritage building that is well maintained. The location is superb, facing the western ramparts of Galle Fort, perfect for sunsets, and just around the corner from one of the main thoroughfares. The room was very spacious and tastefully decorated. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Sri Lankan options for breakfast were delicious. Perfect for those who like unique, boutique places that make you feel more like you're staying at someone's villa than a business.

The rooms had lots of character and were tastefully appointed throughout with wooden furniture and antique style decor, wooden chairs on the verandas and wooden shutters for an authentic experience. The location of the hotel is good on the main road in from the Fort entrance and is very walkable for all areas within Galle Fort.

    The lovely welcome from the owners Sri Lankan and Italian, and their staff, They were all so friendly. perfect breakfast. we loved the Italian cappuccino, fresh fruit juice, omelettes, fresh mixed fruit and delicious waffle. The accommodation is new and very stylish. The location was also perfect, within 10 minutes walk of Galle fort or a short tuk tuk ride to anawatuna delawella and jungle beaches, which are all worth a visit, but best to get there early ax they can get busy.

    If you are looking for a budget stay in Galle this is a great option. The room is clean and comfortable and has everything you need in a great location. Moreover the owner and his family are extremely nice and helpful. They make you feel at home with them. It is very difficult to find local food inside the fort at affordable prices. After looking for hours we saw their food offerings and they have great Sri Lankan food and beverages at very fair prices.

The hotel is a 5 minute tuk tuk ride from Galle Fort (25 min walk along busy road) which means it's nice and out the way. Be warned that tuk tuks from the Fort will try to charge too much, it should be no more than 500 rupees.
