Name: The Fort Bazaar
Rating: 5

Set amidst ageing coral walls on historic Church Street an atmospheric central thoroughfare, this stunning hotel is home to 18 stylish rooms and suites, a buzzy restaurant and bar, a library, cinema and spa.

Located in the heart of Galle Fort, the Fort Bazaar is perfect for guests looking to soak up the Fort’s legendary atmosphere, a spot of gem shopping or walking the walls of the fort’s 300 year old walls. The Fort Bazaar is fresh and contemporary, and its chic understated interiors feel distinctly Middle Eastern, as does its fabulous cuisine, both of which richly reflect the fort’s Moorish history.

The Fort Bazaar is yet to recieve its liquor license although they have an open door policy so you are free to take your own.

Food & Drink

Church Street Social

The contemporary design-led setting, infused with classic twists to reflect the history of the locale and its Arabic influences, is reflected in the gourmet dishes, which feature elements of traditional Moroccan, Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisine.

Tea Lounge

As one of the biggest tea exporters it is hardly surprising that the country celebrates with extravagant afternoon teas on a daily basis. At around 16.00, served either on the verandah, lawn or in your room, this delicious tradition continues in the most elegant way. With homemade scones, fresh cream and fruit jams and a collection of the finest Sri Lankan Teas – too delicious to even think of missing.
