Guest Reviews
- chamara (8/5): -
- Nawodya (5/5): We stayed 12th and 13th of may on BB.Before we do the booking we called and asked about the breakfast buffet and they co - Easy access to all places and calm and quiet location Door locks were broken and outsiders can see inside of the room
- Asoka Weeraratna (5/5): - Nothing to write They tried to charge extra 3% on credit cards. So I paid cash.
Metress was very uncomfortable
- SRI (4/5): Need to pay attention to customer request - The rooms are spacious, parking was manageable In our room the TV was not working (indicated disconnected) and I informed on the first day to the house keeping and management. It was not rectified during the entire stay.
When I was trying to settle the bill, they didn't allow me to use the credit card indicating there will be additional 3% surcharge.
I have left one of my pen drive in the room by mistake and when checked with the management about it, was informed it is there. I asked them to send it by courier, so that I can pay and get it. Upto now, it has not been sent.

- DILSHAN (4/5): Breakfast was fantastic and staff was friendly š and helpful but room cleanliness was so bad . - I like the location The wash room door should be fixed immediately can't closed the door room number 402
Water pipe leak oilet š½ hand shower
A lots of dust around the corners and the balcony doors and windows I stayed with my kid and can't recommend with kids this room again
- Madura (8/5): -
- Amali (4/5): Disappointing. Felt that top ratings in Bookings.com are not dependable when making a decision. - Location is ok. Rooms were spacious. Breakfast was scheduled too late (8.30 am). We were surprised that tea/ coffee was not included in the breakfast. People's dietary needs are not accommodated when deciding the breakfast menu either.
WiFi was only available after requesting.
Bathroom door did not close properly, sink leaked and shower cubicle doors did not close properly.
Staff was not friendly. Looked overworked.
- Kamani (7/5): Good quiet place. - Food was tasty. Variety limited. More or less same items on Sunday and Monday.
No plug point near the table.

- annu (8/5): Definitely recommend the place to others as a cool and peaceful place to stay in Anuradhapura - Love the room and facilities!! Everything was cool except the door lock, which was damaged and we could not lock the balcony sliding door from inside.
- Sureka (10/5): Excellent - Clean, friendly staff with large room .
- Ashan (10/5): Great service - Service was really good. Friendly customer service. Nothing to complain
- Kithmin (6/5): -

- Emiliya (10/5): - Awesome place to stay womderfiull. Amazimg food amazig staff great place.
- Sheneli (10/5): Wonderful Place to stay in Anuradhapura Sri Lanka - Rooms and Food was amazing. 5 Star Breakfast. Team was very supportive and friendly. We wanted to visit temple and team help us to do the pre preparations.
- Saththala (9/5): -
- Kumarage (10/5): - Good Environment envarment.
- Nishantha Kelum (9/5): - Breakfast is very nice with Sri lankan style. The breakfast opening time is a bit late.
- Asanka (7/5): -
- Guest (9/5): -
- J.G.A (9/5): - The breakfast is very good and very tasty. The friendly staff makes it very convenient. It was even easier for us because there was a good environment where we could live freely.
- Suvendrini (7/5): - You get what you pay for with the price. It was pleasant and the staff were helpful. If you are on a budget I would stay here. The room was spacious too. There was food at the property just be sure to order at least an hour in advance.
- Sanjeewa (8/5): -
- Rathnayake (1/5): Very unprofessional service. Cannot recommend at all. Please avoid this place. - I booked the room online through booking.com and received online confirmation. On the 15th August (Check in day) I received a call from the property, and I confirmed my arrival. When I reached the property well within check in time, I was told that no rooms are available. No one was at the reception. Lady who answered my call simply told me that they did not have any rooms and to go find a another place. When I refused based on my confirmed booking, they gave me a room.
- Nalinda (1/5): -
- Nuwan (10/5): - Quality beds, sheets, towels, Shampoos, conditioner and shower gel. Beautiful and easily accessible pool area with Beautiful and relaxing benches. Pool is small but enough for the size of the hotel. Each building is layered so they are felt like self contained units, much like Cabanas than hotel rooms. Our family room had nice two beds with master being a queen and small being a large double. Shower was excellent. Water pressure and 3 jet setting is first for me to experience in a Sri Lankan budget hotel setting. I booked early so got at the rate of 12k ended up playing 13k after tax. Excellent value for money. Hotel staff told me now the same room goes at 21k base price since the season. Still, a good value for what you pay. Excellent breakfast and a good selection of food at the restaurant for a la carte. Staff members, Supun is very helpful and attentive. Kudos for him and the management. With ā¤ļø from Canada. I liked everything. Wish I had more time.
- Guest (7/5): -
- Aruna (5/5): - Staffing are friendly The toilet facilities are very old and not functioning properly. There is a significant mosquito problem, and the doors cannot be closed securely.
- thisara (4/5): Very unpleasant experience. Poor maintenance and unclean rooms - Only the location The rooms were not clean. There were lots of cobwebs and moulds. One of the refillable drinking water bottles had moulds as well. After complaining they gave us a disposable water bottle. Out of the 3 rooms, 2 had their plasters peeling off at the roof. The bathrooms were not cleaned and again in 2 rooms, the cistern tanks were leaking. The other room had a leaking shower and a wash basin. This place is not maintained well except the garden and the swimming pool. The bed sheets had stains in some of the beds and the decorative sleeve on the bed in one room was burnt either by a cigarette or an iron. Do not recommend for a family.
- Rasika (1/5): Avoid this place. They are cheating you. - . They are very unprofessional. They messegesd me to cancel the booking in a long weekend. I was so embarrassed. They didnt respond to booking.com too. Please avoid this hotel
- Gemunu (4/5): -
- Damitra (5/5): Average, manageable need more maintenance - 1) Friendly staff
2) Good management.
3) Room had all the amenities which was required
4) Good location 1) Bathrooms are not very clean, eventhough they have built new with all the new equipment, maintenance was very poor. Walls are moist. Bathroom walls and floors were very dirty.
- YOHAN RANJANA FERNANDO (8/5): - Breakfast is very good
Rooms are good Swimming pool is not good.pl maintain it
- walisundara (3/5): Overall, Iām extremely disappointed with both the service and the experience. - āThe room space is good and the hotel is new. If the staff pays more attention to guests, this place could have great potential for business.ā I do not recommend this place to anyone.
I ordered lunch for five people in advance, before arriving. However, I had to wait over an hour for the food to be prepared. When it was finally served, the portions were not enough for five peopleāeven my two kids didnāt get enough rice. I didnāt receive a single spoon of rice or any lake fish.
When I raised this with the staff, they just kept passing the issue to each other and no one took responsibility. No proper response, no apology. Overall, Iām extremely disappointed with both the service and the experience.
- Chayani (8/5): -
- Prasadika (5/5): Not really happy - There was no hot water, wash room was not clean enough.
- Nimeaha (10/5): - Good
- Ravindu (9/5): Nice location, clean room, friendly staff, and a good pool - perfect for 5 family members in one room. - We really liked the peaceful location and clean rooms. The staff were very kind, and breakfast was great. It was a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Wi-Fi didnāt work properly and there was no hot water.
- Gunasekera (8/5): -
- DjHShy (5/5): Safe vicinity and bigger room - Comfortable Bath and doors
Also breakfast wasnāt good,
- bannet (1/5): - I booked this hotel and before I reached the hotel,I called the hotel for reconfirmation.I confirmed the hotel one day before too.
When I called them they responded that the hotel was full and no rooms.
I insisted that I need the rooms I booked and the person called me cutoff my line tellingāIf no rooms what to doā
I called the facility again and again and they did not respond.
Hence I had to find an another location to stay.
Kindly advise the facility to not to act irresponsibly

- Thesmi (4/5): - The location of the hotel was great, easier to find and 15 minutes away from the main attractions in Anurudhapura. Beds were comfortable, rooms were very spacious. The property is not maintained properly at all. Our bathroom had a broken commode, bidet was not working, shower was rusty and overall it didnāt seem to be cleaned properly. There were pieces of hair as well.

- Indika (4/5): Good and convenient location, but poor service and accommodation. - The location I encountered several issues that impacted my experience. The toilets had a bad smell and lacked toilet paper, and the shower cubicle design caused water to flood the bathroom. The room also had flies and mosquitoes upon arrival, with no repellent provided. Additionally, breakfast was delayed and only served at 9:00 am.

- Thushan (3/5): - It is not recommended to book rooms with significant discounts (25-50%). Once all rooms at these high discounts are sold, they may be relisted at an even lower discount or the standard price. If they choose to relist, they may cancel the reservations made at the heavily discounted rate.
