Best hotels & accommodations in Anuradhapura

It was our second stay at Heritage hotel in Anuradhapura and management did not disappoint us again, on the contrary. Staff is again friendly and service minded, especially for one of our disabled companions. The scenery from the hotel is magic: the beautiful view of Thissa Wewa with all the 2000 year old large Dagoba’s on the horizon. Breakfast and dinner are buffets ...

We stayed here for 2 days as part of our honeymoon whist sight seeing in the cultural triangle. It is well positioned for all the major sights in the area. It is difficult to find and we were glad our driver knew where he was going. The lack of signs added to the mystique of the resort. We really enjoyed being mixed in with the wildlife with wild peacocks visiting ...

The Sanctuary is a beautiful hotel set in extensive gardens. The food was some of the best we have had in Sri Lanka and restaurant staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was clean and comfortable. The hotel is close to the temples of old Anuradhapura - we borrowed hotel bicycles to tour the sites. All up, a great experience at a very reasonable price.

The villa in the garden is vast and beautifully appointed, lovely design and very comfortable. There's a mini-bar, A/C, tea & coffee making facilities, TV and one of the best mosquito nets we came across in three weeks in Sri Lanka. Large king size bed and very comfortable indeed, plus a range of pillows to suit most people. The place is immaculate. There is an outside...

We stayed here for two nights Although it took a while for our room to be ready we were very pleased with it. The reception staff were most efficient ad rented us two bikes and directed us to the ancient city and were also very helpful with a tuktuk and getting off the local bus at the best stop. The food we had when we chose Sri Lankan was very nice. Maybe the nood...

This hotel really awesome..front office guys they are realy helpfully.If you requested any hard thing cannot be find easier, they will help you to get this.when you are check out they will see tell you to some guides to avoid waste your time.that thing not happened to me but i saw it.. But few issues having their restaurant. Buffet also small..restaurant stewards also...

The hotel is a bit far from the new city however the property is new and the facilities are new and comfortable. I hope the management will make sure the standards of cleanliness is maintained over time. It seems that the management is taking a proactive role in responding to customer comments and making the necessary changes to the facilities or the services offered. ...

nice hotel in anuradhapura city. good value for money concerning the place. but the food is a little bit too expensive or the plate not full enough... the staff is very nice and help you to organize your trip. the rooms are nice and clean. but if you need your breakfast early in the morning, make sure that they properly understood it if you order the night before. enjo...

We spent one day and one night in Anuradhapura and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sacred City Tourist resort. The room was clean and well kept, the homemade dinner was delicious and the location is perfect to see the temple city. The owner is a fantastic resource to help plan any excursions and provides a map of the temple area and walks you through the city area. He c...

This B&B/Guesthouse will give you an authentic taste of life in Anuradhapura that is difficult to get elsewhere in town. Like all B&B's the bells and whistles are somewhat spartan. There is a supermarket near by to stock up when needed but water is the main 'must have' that is always on hand at the Guesthouse for purchase which is handy on the hot days. The location is...

Ceylan Lodge is just north of Anuradhapura, within a block of similar hostels. It's still under construction though ready to go as is - we had no nuisance. Compared to most places we've been in Sri Lanka, it's very clean with good quality beds. We only had a 1 night break there and CL was perfect for this. Note that the surroundings are still pretty rough (loads of ga...

We had a very pleasant 3 nights stay in this hotel. It has a homely atmosphere and the hotel staff were more than willing to look after all our needs as much as they could from the moment we checked in to the hotel. The general cleanliness of the hotel and the rooms are not below to any 3-4 star hotel in Sri Lanka. It would be difficult to find a better hotel in Anurad...

Our stay here was the best of all the (9) places we stayed in Sri Lanka. The accommodation itself is a tent of course but this is definitely Glamping! There is an attached bathroom, electricity (at night), porch and lots of little touches that make your stay comfortable. The staff were friendly, extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding nature and unerring in thei...

Lievi's Tourist Accomodation is one of the accomodations where I felt the most comfortable in Sri Lanka. The loaction ist really good: close enough to the city (even when there barely something to see there) and you can rent bikes for a good price to go to the ancient cities, which takes with a bike under 10 minutes. I personally recommend visiting the ancient cities a...

Rajarata Reach Resort’s rooms are superiorly clean & tidy and very comfortable, give best value for the money. The hospitality was exceptional, very accommodative to personal requests and big credit goes to Mr.Chammika for his dedication to accommodate me late in the night, and provide late check-out time in the next day. Undoubtedly one of the best place to stay in An...

We stayed for one night. Nice small boutique hostel. It is like homestay. Nice, clean,basic rooms. Staff is very helpfull and friendly. We eat the most delicious homemade food of Sri Lanka at this place. Owners wife cooked the dishes for us. It was a really fantastic dinner. Thanks for everything.

We had two nights to stay in Anuradhapura, and during our stay we both seen the city and travelled to Dambulla and Sigiriya from there. The staff of the hotel was exceptionally professional, helping us in everything we needed. Probably in terms of service this was our best hotel on Sri Lanka. The restaurant is very good priced with good variety of food. The room was al...

The place is above average. Would have been perfect if there was the air-conditioner in the room. I know it's common not to have the air-con but Anuradhabura can be very hot even in the evening. This bungalow is quite far from the town. But for me, I think it can be totally compensated by the hospitality of Priyantha, the housekeeper, and the food he cooked. One of the...
Cheapest hotels in Anuradhapura

We've been in Anuradhapura for three days and we found Kingfisher Guesthouse by total luck. And I have to say, it's the place to be. First of all the room are really comfy and clean, many King size bed in the dorm but really suitable for couples because of a second room with a door. There is a Nice bathroom and a common kitchen for those who want to Cook, water is pro...

The place is in a nice, quiet location, the staff is very friendly and helpful and the room (3 beds) was very clean. My highlight however was the tourguide that led the "Mihintale at sunset" and "Bodhi tree/stupa at night" tours. Good value for money and unbelievably friendly and knowledgeble guy!

So this place wasn't our first choice when it came to staying in Unawatuna since we were looking at a property on the beach, but in hindsight I'm so glad I came to stay here! Tropical Retreat is one of hidden away, small boutique kind of hotels. Tucked away from the sea and surrounded by greenery it has a really nice feel to it. The manager Malit is a really friendly a...

Very, very sweet guy! He accommodated my boyfriend and I even though I messed up the dates of our reservation when I booked. Great guy! What you pay is what you get. No frills. Pretty clean. Nice garden area. If you're traveling on a budget I would consider booking here.

So lovely, warm and welcoming hosts! the rooms ae very clean and the veranda invites you to just relax after a day of sightseeing. it is indeed a bit outside of the main city which I see as a plus. It's quiet and relaxing. you still have some restaurants and local stalls in walking distance. I urge you to try breakfast and dinner - this is sri lankan food at its best a...

Mediocre experience. Floors, walls and bathroom were all dirty but most places are the same. The room became way too humid after the first night. Awesome location with grocery stores, liquor stores, market, an amazing restaurant across the street called Ranjiri (CHEAP) and within bicycle distance to the Sacred City.

I can write only good things about family run Green Palace Hotel. First, we got free pick-up from the bus station, then Brayan took us to Mihintale for a reasonable price and showed us extra 2 sacred places and it was a great experience! And the room was even better than we expected! It’s super clean, has a huge comfortable bed, A/C, flat screen TV and a nice bathroom....

This was my favorite stay in Sri Lanka. Herath and his family are wonderful and kind. Very helpful in planning trips, very pleasant to chat with, incredible home cooking, bicycles to use, if you choose. It was all good, and I wish I had stayed longer! Would go back in a heartbeat.

If you are looking for a charming, cozy, friendly and clean place to stay this is it! Sunil is more than hospitable always with a big smile on his face ready to accommodate. He even allowed me in his kitchen to experience curry making! His delicious cooking has set the bar high and I was not able to find such delicious & spicey curry elsewhere in Sri Lanka. The cozy se...

The Village Garden Inn is a lovely guest house in a small village about 18K north from the centre of Anuradhapura. The setting is nice and quiet and full of animal noises such as peacocks etc. Muthalif and his family were very welcoming and looked after us very well. His wife's cooking was fantastic!!! You have to factor the travel costs into the price which is 1500 ru...

We had a great time in Anuradhapura, and Lalit the tuktuk driver was brilliant! The staff recommended we go and visit Mihintale on our first evening. Lalit took us out there (13km each way) and waited for us, and 2000 for the round trip was good value as it's amazing! We watched the sun set from dagoba, and the views from the rock behind are stunning! Well worth visiti...

Seems the previous manager set up the online booking and now has left the hotel all together leaving with passwords for these booking sites. Our stay was unexpected. Thankful that rooms were available. The food is awesome! The rates were a bit high considering the condition of the rooms. But for a one night transit it was perfect. The owner went out of his way to acc...

pro - near park entrance, owner is able to communicate in english online, guy who checked us in is not able to, can book jeep tours (do bring sri lanka money for park fees even though some things may be quoted in USD, we were turned away at the park entrance and needed to go back to accom and change money of which the jeep driver charged additional) con - very near na...

We had a great stay at Nadeejas. It is perfect for relaxing after sigh seeing and the hectic city live. The owner is friendly and helpful but also knows when its better to give you some space. His English is not the best though. Even without air con it is not to hot thanks to the surrounding garden and the architecture. A colonial feeling mixed with traditional element...

Quiet and calm place, great cook / food. Bike rental available. Nice swimming pool. A lot of noices at night.... In the rooms no water pressure at all so shower is realy bad, with cold water. At the end, when paying the bill, other money prices were asked than discussed on forehand. Dinner 550 rp...but then a dinner with chicken 750. Breakfast 350 but a western egg all...

City Resort has more of a homestay feel than hotel. My room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was freshly prepared when you were ready to eat. The customer service is exceptional - the staff helped with planning out a cycling tour in Anuradhapura, a car hire to Polonnaruwa, a tuk-tuk tour. All with exceptional prices, I met other travelers and the tour...

This is a great place to stay if you want to get away from the hotel chain sort of thing. Situated a short bike ride (free from the hotel) to Mihintale this lovely hotel has the best kept gardens we came across in Sri Lanka. We thought the sights at Mihintale were far more interesting than those at Anuradhapura. A dip in the super clean pool at the end of a hot tour da...

Very basic housing close to the Willpatu National Park. Very basic accommodation, largely sufficient to stay overnight prior to the safari. Staff extremely friendly and helpful - that makes the stay there a very family-like evening. Food very tasty. Well recommended

Traveler impressions of Anuradhapura
Anuradhapura is a small town that dates back to the ancient period. It is famous for its historiicity and gives one a feel of the past.
Great City. Ancient Ruins will take you to a different world. Choose the AC Shuttle by CTB for shrine visits.
Depending on your level of knowledge about Sri Lankan history and Buddhism the World Heritage site of Anuradhapura can be challenging.
The old city is spectacular with centuries of history and culture and evidence of a civilisation more advanceed than the present one.
Go early in the morning to visit the big white dagobas, later you will burn your feet on the white marble floors
Don't stay longer than 1-2 nights. Apart from the ancient ruins there is absolutely nothing to do. it was even difficult to find a decent place to eat.
There isn't very much in Anuradhapura, except for the sacred city- which you have to pay 25$ to enter if you are a foreign tourist.
There are best temples in Sri Lanka, so I woud recomed everybody to visit the city. Also with children.
We could do most of the sights in 4-5 hours. Be prepared to leave your footwear behind in most places and spend $30-40 on entrance fees.
The famous ruins where not as spectacular as we had anticipated, finding that Polonaruwa was a lot nicer.
You need at least a full day to enjoy the sights of the city itself and then another one or two days to see the sights of the surrounding areas.
Anuradhapura is all about temple visiting. So, during the trip, you will need to walk barefoot for most time, be aware! Also, it's important to hire a guide.
