Seagreen Guesthouse

Highly recommend this guesthouse - the rooms are very clean and comfortable - the whole house is beautifully maintained with a fabulous ocean view from the terrace. Our host and staff were warm, friendly and accommodating. Both the Sri Lankan and Continental breakfast was delicious as was the Sri Lankan curry we had for dinner. It’s the perfect retreat to stay within the Galle Fort. We stayed 2 nights and wished we could have stayed longer! We will definitely return in the future. Bohoma Istuti!

Fabulous and great value hotel, brilliantly positioned by the sea and a park where you can sit on the rooftop terrace and watch the sunset, locals flying kites and playing cricket. The owner helped us so much, we had to rebook flights and he was incredibly kind and patient. Rooms are beautiful, best guesthouse experience in a month here. We will be back!!!

I went to the restaurant and asked for grilled items. They mentioned that only grilled prawns and grilled chicken were available. After placing the order, a couple came, finished their lunch, and left, which shows how slow the service was. We eventually decided to go for the rice and curry buffet, but only pork curry was available. I opted for vegetarian rice and curry, while my partner chose pork rice and curry. After a long wait of nearly a decade, the grilled dishes finally arrived. For almost 2,000 rupees, they served only about 50 grams of prawns (just a few pieces), and the chicken looked more like it was boiled rather than grilled. They didn’t ask us about preferences or even basic things like water. I had to request water separately, and in the end, they charged 600 rupees as a service charge. Money isn't the issue, but if you’re charging that much, at least treat the customers well. To top it off, a normal 170-rupee Coke was priced at 550 rupees with the service charge. So, I strongly recommend avoiding this restaurant.

Despite only staying one night here, it certainly made an impression. Find yourself welcomed by an unassuming exterior, that opens to a plethora of well kept and swish rooms. The staff were so friendly and more than happy to help. They booked us a taxi onto our next destination, which was a lovely ride and helpfully narrated by our gracious driver/ host. Great location, and a yummy breakfast to top it all off. We enjoyed the presence of their super friendly dog- Amy, who made a welcomed breakfast guest. Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay here. Great location in Galle Fort with a lovely view of the sea and locals playing cricket by the walls from the comfortable terrace. Lots of lovely restaurants nearby. Rooms were great: comfy bed and the best bathroom we have had in Sri Lanka. Breakfast was great and plentiful. Highly recommend a stay here.

Excellent guest house. Clean and well presented. Great location inside the Fort. Staff very friendly and helpful. Sri Lankan breakfast was very tasty. Highly recommend and great value. Enjoyed staying here and will return in the future.

Location on outer edge of fort gives a lovely seabreeze. Great value rooms for inside the fort & tasty meals in downstairs restaurant including very good curries and breakfasts. Being next to the primary school adds a local vibe, noise was not an issue for us. Helpful staff and very convenient place.

We stayed at the Seagreen guesthouse in late April 2024. To start with, I was apprehensive as I had not stayed at a guest-house before. However, after checking in, my worries were completely dispelled. |The receptionist was prompt and professional. The check in process and booking via a telephone call and a Whatsapp message was prompt and professional. |The room was spacious and clean. The A/C worked very well, and so did the fan. The bath rooms appear to be newly re-furbished and were spacious. The shower area and the shower were excellent. We had one breakfast and sandwiches to take away, both were good for the amount paid.|The place is very convenient to walk around the fort, specially the rampart area. We were able to watch sunrise and sunset on the days we stayed, within a 5 min walk. |Sunset is visible from the rooftop too, though we preferred to go to the fort itself.|Unfortunately, the tuk-tuk tour was not available on the day we were there, which was a bummer for us as we were there mostly on a family business and wanted to get in some-sightseeing. The hotel offered to make alternative arrangements, however, since we had a long journey back, we declined it. |PS- We loved Pirate
