The Charleston is a hidden gem in Galle Fort! Beautiful boutique hotel with amazing service. Had our dinner there at the hotel restaurant with amazing food. We ordered the prawns and curry , the grilled fish was amazing and service was great. The restaurant manager really took care of us.

Amazing service from all the staff we encountered. Rooms were classy, clean and elegant. The restaurant area has great views over the sea and was some of the best food we’ve had in Sri Lanka.
The staff at The Charleston went above and beyond when a family member arrived ill and subsequently had to go to hospital. From the moment we arrived we felt their care and reassurance.
Thanks to all the staff.
Highly recommended!
