The Charleston is located at the southern tip of Sri Lanka, within the fortified walls of Galle Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Originally a merchant villa constructed in 1924, The Charleston is a masterpiece of Art Deco architecture that has been meticulously restored. The attention to detail required in her construction, alongside the restrictions of the global pandemic made it one of our most challenging yet fulfilling projects. The Charleston welcomed her first guests in 2024, marking 100 years since her original construction.

With a small inventory of 9 rooms, The Charleston offers an intimate and immersive experience for her guests. Her F&B facility, Charlie’s Bistro & Bar sits on the second floor of the building and is connected to the sunset terrace and pool. It not only supports the breakfast service for guests but also acts as a restaurant open to public for lunch & dinner, as well as an event venue.
