Amangalla – Gall Fort

Occupying a 17th-century Dutch colonial building within the ramparts of Galle’s historic fort, Amangalla is woven unmistakably into the rich tapestry of this enthralling city. With its original polished teak floors, antique furniture and 19th-century artefacts dating from the building’s former life as the New Oriental Hotel, a bygone era is kept elegantly intact, allowing guests an atmospheric insight into the many chapters of the storied citadel on Amangalla’s doorstep. Restored with care and brought to life by antique furnishings and decorations, the 31 Rooms and Suites are luxurious in a collection of stunning buildings that date back over 400 years. Amangalla is managed by Aman, the world’s most exclusive hotel brand.
