The Rooms
One of the main reasons to visit this beautiful hotel is not only for its amazing location within the Dutch Fort. But for its incredible rooms. The Bartizan holds 10 rooms. Ranging from a private tower room with a sea view, a courtyard room, to the incredible deluxe balcony room with a sea view. Our recommendation would be the Superior Balcony Room . You are given a large 40 sqm area and a super king bed (these are the comfiest beds you’ll ever lay your head on…we wrote the name down for our future home). The best part of this room is that you wake up with a sea view right outside your window, something very special.

The breakfast at the Bartizan is complementary with all the rooms and is incredible to say the least. You are given a variety of options to choose from, all are equally as tasty. Such as the local Sri Lankan breakfasts with their incredible curries. To more western breakfasts including eggs benedict and the classic continental. Overall, the food is amazing and with the ability to have it on your private balcony, or the veranda overlooking the ocean. The Bartizan breakfast definitely sets you up to have an amazing day.
