The building that houses the Amagalla Hotel was originally built in 1684 as the quarters for the Dutch Governor and his staff. In 1865 the British used the building as a barracks and then converted it into a hotel named the New Oriental Hotel. This hotel in its heyday was one of the finest hotels in Asia and was a favourite amongst the British Raj. European travelers stayed here when their ships pulled into port on their journeys to and from countries such as Australia, Singapore, Malaya and Indonesia. When ships no longer called into Galle harbor the grand old lady of Galle slowly lost her luster and fell into disrepair. The author as a young boy in the 1970's remembers staying at this hotel when it was a mere shell of its past glory. Recently revives and refurbished it is now one of the most exclusive hotels in the world. It exudes an old-world charm but offers modern day conveniences.

In keeping with its image of exclusivity it is very very expensive and hard to book into. The meals are sumptuous and the selection extensive. Both Western and Sri Lankan food is served. The hotel is clean and professionally managed. The staff is well trained, courteous and helpful. The hotel is right in the heart of Gall Fort, walking distance from all major attractions.
