“Superb”
Self and wife stayed for two nights. Deluxe Double Room with access to adjoining private lobby was very comfortable. The staff; Samitha, Rumeshika, Lahiru, Madusanka and Niroshan, all were welcoming, cheerful and very helpful. We had three breakfasts. Though limited items were served in the breakfast, the qty was sufficient. It was delicious. We also liked the fresh fruit and fresh mixed fruit juice. Excellent location in the center of Galle Fort, next to Pedlar Street.

“Parawa House is 99% there to being 5 star”
Location, breakfasts, friendly staff. I believe I was the only guest for three days. Sri Lanka, like most tropical Asian countries, is the best post dawn,, around 6.30am. Sitting in the quiet and cool with a cup of tea and watching the crows and squirrels going about their morning business is a delight.

Parawa house is in a great location inside Galle Fort and close to all the main attractions. We loved the conversoin of the old colonial style merchants house into a hotel and the breakfasts were excellent.

“Its okey, but overpriced”
It was in the heart of Galle old town, parking is near, but in the street, not their own. It was clean, friendly staff. Rooms size is enough, big shower, cozy.

“Lovely stay at a bed and breakfast in the Galle fort”
Lovely bed and breakfast accommodation on a quiet, residential street off one of the main streets within the Fort. Lovely greenery in sunny courtyard with comfortable couches to relax in. Room was also comfortable. The breakfast was good.
