Amangalla is a living piece of history, a hotel set within the ramparts of the seventeenth-century Galle Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site on Sri Lanka's south coast, in a building that served as the Dutch governor's residence and later the island's grandest hotel. Original wooden floors, high sash windows and four-poster beds give it the atmosphere of a bygone age, brought to an Aman standard of comfort. Booking through a preferred-partner advisory costs the same as booking direct, with recognition and benefits added at no extra cost.
Within Galle Fort
Galle Fort is a walled colonial town of churches, warehouses and ramparts above the Indian Ocean, one of the best-preserved in Asia, and Amangalla sits at its heart. Guests step straight into the Fort's lanes, boutiques and cafés, with the sea visible from the walls and Sri Lanka's beaches and tea country within reach.
Colonial Rooms and Suites
The rooms and suites preserve the building's heritage, with polished wood floors, antique furniture, high ceilings and four-poster beds, rising to spacious suites. The effect is of staying in a grand colonial home, layered with history and quietly luxurious.
Sri Lankan and International
Dining spans Sri Lankan and international cuisine in The Dining Room, The Zaal and on The Veranda, built on the island's spices and produce. The Baths, a hydrotherapy spa, and a garden pool complete the retreat within the Fort.
Amangalla is history you can sleep in, a seventeenth-century governor's residence within the ramparts of Galle Fort.
