  1. Amangalla

    Stay 92

    Polished teak, shuttered windows, and veranda ceiling fans that have been moving the same slow air for generations: Amangalla is a colonial-era hotel inside Galle Fort, Sri Lanka's UNESCO-listed walled city. Thirty-one rooms keep antique furnishings and let the coastal breeze do the work. The spa leans into traditional wellness rituals, dining is quietly Sri Lankan, and the pace throughout is unhurried by design. It sits on the World's 50 Best Hotels list.

    Three honors, in evidence:

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country and what it's like right there: how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, the air, and the weather. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
