I had a fantastic experience at this hotel! Everything was very clean, the location is excellent, and the price is unbeatable for what you get. The breakfast is incredible—just $3 for a huge and delicious spread, totally worth it! If you’re planning to explore the city, I highly recommend renting an electric bicycle directly from the hotel. It’s super convenient and offered at a very budget-friendly rate. Although the rates are low, the service feels like a 5-star hotel. Highly recommended—I would definitely stay here again!

The view from the room is super beautiful, the vocation is a little bit outside of the city Center what makes it really calm and natural. When I sat on the terrace I saw monkeys and palm trees. The best part of this place is the host family who treated me super kindly and made me part of the family for the time I stayed at their place. The owner of the property took me to a lot of hidden places and when I got hungry he dropped me at a really nice restaurant. I am really grateful I got to know them!

    Anuradhapura, one of the world's oldest continuously...

    Anuradhapura, one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, is a treasure trove of ancient history that stretches back to the 4th century BCE. Established by King Pandukabhaya, it served as the majestic capital of Sri Lanka for over a millennium, playing a pivotal role in the island's Buddhist heritage and cultural evolution. The arrival of Buddhism in Sri Lanka, introduced by Mahinda Thera in the 3rd century BCE, marked a transformative era for Anuradhapura. This led to the creation of awe-inspiring stupas, monastic complexes, and elaborate water reservoirs that showcase the ingenuity of the time. Central to this transformation is the revered Sri Maha Bodhi tree, a sapling believed to have been taken from the very tree under which the Buddha attained enlightenment, which continues to be a powerful pilgrimage site. Anuradhapura flourished as a vibrant hub of trade, culture, and religion. Its stunning architecture, exemplified by monumental structures like the Ruwanwelisaya and the Jetavanaramaya, reflects the extraordinary vision and craftsmanship of its builders—each stone telling a story of devotion, power, and artistry. Despite facing invasions and natural calamities that eventually led to its decline in the 10th century CE, Anuradhapura's legacy endured. The capital shifted to Polonnaruwa, but Anuradhapura remained a beacon of historical significance, earning its status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Today, it captivates scholars and travelers alike, offering a glimpse into Sri Lanka's rich cultural lineage and inviting exploration of its ancient ruins, sacred sites, and the profound stories embedded within them. Anuradhapura is not just a city; it’s a living testament to the resilience and depth of a civilization that continues to inspire.

    Anuradhapura is an ancient city which evolved into a very popular place with pilgrims and tourists. Because of the modernization of the city, more and more people visit there to experience the century old civilization. In my view anybody can learn a lot about Buddhist culture, agriculture and simple but happy lives of those people who live there for a long time. Good Luck!

    Nice, modern style hotel 10 minute tuk tuk from the ancient city. Rooms were very spacious and comfortable, with beautiful views over rice paddy fields. Great size pool which has sun all day - perfect for relaxing after visiting the temples. Restaurant served nice sri lankan breakfast and reasonable dinner menu. Staff were laid back and willing to help. There is a small convenience shop next door and is ten mins walk down a main road from a couple of local restaurants.

    The hotel is clean and tidy, a few km tuktuk ride away from the centre of Anuradhapura, Our room was large and comfortable with good air conditioning and a balcony area. The gardens are well kept, We only stayed one night but had a great stay, coffee was served on arrival and breakfast in the morning was nice. Our host was very knowledgeable about the local area and history of Sri Lanka and arranged our onward travel for us at a very reasonable price.
