Loved this spot for its cleanliness, neatness, and the unexpected bonus of a room upgrade that gave us a lovely view of both the street and sea (we saw some small parade of school kids after full moon celebration - we had the best spot to watch). Since it's on a corner of the street, it's a bit noisy, though. We stayed for two nights and tried breakfast on the roof one day and in our room the next. Definitely recommend room service breakfast – it's way more comfortable and the view is somehow even better. The hotel is a bit on the pricey side, but you feel like you're staying in a real, old historic building, which is a cool plus.

The hotel can get quite hot, and the AC doesn’t quite cover it, especially near the balcony where it felt like a sauna during the day. Morning is definitely the best time to enjoy that area. One more thing to note, the doors are quite old and have some gaps, which felt a bit unsettling. We ended up covering them with tissues for more privacy.

We had an amazing stay at The Bartizan. Everything was perfect. The setting /location is wonderful and the hotel is stylish and understated. A lovely spacious room, delightful breakfasts (both the Western & Sri Lankan were delicious, fresh and filling) and the staff were utterly charming. It was my friend's 50th and they made a cake and made it really special for her and also arranged a great driver to take us on to Yala National Park. I couldn't fault the hotel or the staff and hope to visit again.

Nothing. It was a really special stay. We loved everything about The Bartizan.

This hotel is simply amazing. The location is perfect. You can hear the waves and within 50 steps you are on top of the fort walls and you can enjoy the sea view. The hotel coworkers will help you in any way. Rooms with the private balconies are the best. They are super spacious, very clean and have a great view. The rooms on the ground floor are smaller but the small courtyard makes everything okay. I would absolutely recommend this place

I love how Bartizan maintains a rustic, unassuming facade and delivers on top notch lodgings: spacious, thoughtfully appointed, and above all else, tasteful. Every member of the staff I interacted with was wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable, and our holiday definitely gained from these interactions!

The parking spots being public and outside the hotel premises had me a little worried at first, but no safety concerns arose.

Wonderful staff Clean and roomy

Air conditioning - it was too hot at night. There was no overhead fan

Ala carte breakfast was really good and very well presented. The room was nice, we had to upgrade by paying more coz the one that we had booked was really tiny. The location is pristine and that is the best part about the hotel. The staff was very courteous and helpful.

The place needs a little bit of a makeover.

Hotel is at a good location. Right next to the beach and walking distance from all local attractions and easy access to food and beverage. The room I’m in is super comfortable and of a good size. The breakfast is good and the staffs are super friendly and very helpful. I even got my room upgraded!They are able to provide assistance for transport schedules and directions. highly recommended

nothing! everything is great.

Amazing location! Perfectly clean ! Nice adore in the rooms. Common Balcony with sunset!
