About the Hotel

18, Upper Dickson Road, Galle, Sri Lanka

The Sun House - A colonial-era boutique hotel with panoramic Galle Fort views, fine dining, and lush tropical gardens

Originally built in the 1860s as a Scottish spice merchant's residence, The Sun House is a 4-star boutique hotel featuring seven individually designed rooms with four-poster beds, mosquito nets, and outdoor bathrooms. The Dumas Suite includes a bathtub under the stars, while the Gallean Suite offers a super-king bed and a private outdoor bathtub. Three restaurants operate on-site: an al fresco verandah restaurant in a frangipani-scented garden, Dick's Bar serving cocktails and light meals, and The Bamboo Bar and Grill specializing in seafood with Thai, Sri Lankan, and Mediterranean influences. The hotel's central living area includes a library and tropical gardens. Located a 5-minute walk from Galle Fort, The Sun House provides transfers via chauffeured vehicles, seaplane, or helicopter. Free WiFi is available in public areas.
