Its a beautiful property, as seen in the pictures, though slightly older.

Service. I checked in midday, there was only one waiter looking after the pool area and the bar and he did not speak english at all. The food in the restaurant is quite bad. Also when you order a meal things randomly show up on your table. For instance my side dish came first floowed by the appetiser then the main dish and then bread:(

My wife and I enjoyed four wonderful days at the Owl and Pussycat Hotel! The room was very large and comfortable, with a view directly over the property out to the ocean. The pool was fantastic, the restaurant had a great breakfast/dinner, the staff were extra friendly, and the location was close to Galle via tuk tuk. It's also only a 400 metre walk to feed the turtles right at the beach!

There wasn't much to not like about the Owl and the Pussycat!

staff was exceptionally friendly and went the extra mile for anything we needed with our kids. would return always again. lovely pool, clean rooms, amazing view and he location is good too. you can take a tuk tuk and within 5-10 mins you’ll reach hikkaduwa where you’ll find some shops and restaurants.

The variety of dishes was not much and the portions of the food were rather small. But the staff will try to make anything you want.

Staff were excellent especially Dilumi and Sharon who were very helpful with all our needs. Food was very good and excellent value and we were upgraded to a larger suite which was a treat

Bar staff should be a bit more proactive at offering guests drinks by the pool. I know it has been tough for tourism in Sri Lanka during the Pandemic but there are a few areas of maintenance that need sorting just to tidy things up. Water temperature pressure in showers was indifferent at times and a few small repairs outside needed. Would be good to have direct access to the beach in from the property even with a security gate rather than have to go down a damp dark alley at the side of the hotel.

Experienced the best honeymoon experience at Owl and the Pussycat Hotel. It felt like a proper oasis outside the hustle and bustle of Galle. the staff were incredible and so helpful - we arrived late on our first day and they served us dinner outside restaurant hours. The food was great value and fresh and they have two turndown services a day. Couldn’t recommend any higher.

No faults. Even with power cuts it was seamless with the back up generator.

A beautifully themed boutique hotel around the famous nursery rhyme with attention to detail and art throughout the property. Very private with beach access. Very attentive staff and beautiful food!

The staff were excellent from the emails before we arrived to the customer service whilst we were staying at the property for 4 nights. Shihani helped us with our PCR test in Galle amongst other things with our requirements to get back to Saudi Arabia. The breakfast was very hearty and traditional to Sri Lankan culture. It was delicious! The decor was extremely modern and eclectic and by far exceeding our expectations. The bed in the room was very comfy and I had the best nights sleep whilst in Sri Lanka at the property. We will be returning in the not so distant future.

This hotel was absolutely beautiful. Perfect for a relaxing end to our tour of Sri Lanka!! We’d spent a week touring the hill country (Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella) and this pristine boutique hotel was the perfect place to relax on the beach to finish our trip!

Absolutely nothing!!
