AI Summary
The staff provides exceptional, friendly service. The accommodation is conveniently located near Fort Galle, offering spacious, well-curated rooms and delicious food. However, some guests found the rooms to be rustic.

This hotel is located on a very secret mountain road. It is difficult to find the location for many protruding cars. It is indeed not ideal, but the environment inside is still very good and very original.

Just stayed at Tamarind Hill and the service we received was way above our expectations.. All the staff without exception were friendly, helpful and couldn’t do enough for us.. The building is beautiful with lots of colonial character and history with a really nice pool and is situated about a 5 min toktok ride away from Galle Fort which was great as it was much more peaceful than being in the Fort area.. The food was exceptional…. definitely can’t beat the Sri Lankan chicken curry… If you’re looking for a hotel that offers incredible service this is the place.

This was our first time at Tamarind Hill and definitely won’t be our last. What a gorgeous hotel! Has a very old world charm and the decor of the hotel was simply delightful. But what was just out of this world was the service! Everyone from the manager to the chef to all the hotel staff we encountered, it was Sri Lankan hospitality at its finest. And the food, oh my goodness we had the most delicious Sri Lankan breakfast and I could just sit there all day eating that! Every dish that we ate was truly a piece of heaven and the service that went along with it made this experience so memorable. The breakfast was soo good that we skipped lunch and dinner and savored every morsel of the breakfast! Hotels can be great, the food can be delicious but what makes the place that much more appealing is the service and Tamarind Hill has all of that plus a fabulous staff who will make sure your every need is met and the experience is one to remember!

Very friendly staff. The pool was nice and the pool boy was very friendly and told us about the monkeys in the trees, that we saw while swimming. The breakfast was delicious and big, and the building and garden were beautiful. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Service is not great at all. Food is very average and it wasnt a pleasent experience for us. The Staff is not attentive to our request and we felt like we were ignored. It was our first stay at this hotel and we dont think that we can recommend this place to our friends

WOW What a stunning looking place. It is a little out of the way down a rough lane but as soon as you are let in through the gates, you arrive at this fabulous old mansion with only 10 rooms and 2 suites upstairs. Our room 5 was to the other side of the grass and pond area, very high ceilings, large bed and dark furniture, everything you would expect. The pool area although small was wonderful and the food very tasty.

Rich history but lots of improvement. The staff at Tamarind Hill Hotel is friendly and accommodating, there are some areas of concern. Although the maintenance is generally good, there were issues with the AC in the suite room, making for an uncomfortable night, especially with a toddler. This is also because of April summer. This property requires maintenance in a lot of areas.
