Fort Bazaar

Why we like Fort Bazaar

As the sister property to the award-winning The Wallowa Hotel outside Colombo, The Fort Bazaar encapsulates everything one would expect from a boutique property of this calibre. Twinkling fairy lights brighten the central courtyard, warm smiles welcome visitors through its doors and delicious fresh food is served on sun-drenched terraces.

Facilities

Fifteen luxuriously appointed Bazaar and Banyan bedrooms are located off a peaceful flagstone-tiled courtyard shaded by an age-old mango tree. Rooms offer king-sized four-poster Balinese beds, air conditioning, cable televisions, artisanal coffee machines and ensuite shower rooms.

The three Upper Suites are more decadent with lounge areas, dressing rooms, freestanding bathtubs and fort-view terraces. Families could opt for interconnecting Banyan or Bazaar Bedrooms or the split level Upper Family Suite.

Please note that the pool, spa and bar are not yet open to guests but you are allowed to bring your own alcohol and alcohol can be bought on guests’ behalf. In-room spa treatments can be organised and the pool at the nearby Lighthouse Hotel is available for guest use.

Activities

Explore Galle, which is on the doorstep, travel by tuk-tuk for 15 minutes to the southern beaches of Thalpe and Unawatuna or venture deeper into the countryside for private tea estates.
