The room was clean, and bed had a mosquito net, the bathroom was also clean with hot shower. Wifi worked well. I'm not sure if we missed something but apart from the ancient buildings there didn't seem to be a lot to do in Anduradhapura, and very limited selection of places to eat, leaving only the local guest houses.

Really nice place to make second stop of trip. Our room was clean, enough big and that is important with mosquito net. Staff were nice, polite. With clear conscience I can recommend this place for the stop of traveling around the Sri Lanka.

As the name says it the building looks pretty colonial with a small garden and few tables outside. Inside you'll find very friendly and attentive staff and clean, cozy rooms. Breakfast is nothing special (toast, eggs and juice from the bottle), we didn't order any other meals. But another place with the same owner serves really good devilled beef, so... More

This is one of the best places that I stayed at while in Sri Lanka! I am pleased that I found it. My room was great! Big and comfortable bed, cosy atmosphere, big windows looking out back, air conditioning and very clean bathroom. The entire room was spotless and charming! There was also free Wifi...one of the better-working ones I... More

This place was lovely. The people very friendly and the food was excellent. The garden has a lovely peaceful atmosphere and it's down a small side street which makes it nice and quiet. It had airconditioning and nice comfortable rooms for a very good price. Unfortunately though, we had the room right at the front of the house and on... More

When we arrived in Anuradhapura we went to the French Garden Guesthouse only to find it full. However, the owners have built another guesthouse called London Palace, he organised a free tuk tuk to take us there. The guesthouse is brand new and just lovely. It is quiet and the young man who is in charge, Tamasha, is just wonderful.... More

Good location, within walking distance of town but a little outside it. It was very loud one of the mornings we were there as the school (?) next door was quite noisy, but otherwise it was pretty quiet. Breakfast was good, and they were able to help us out with hiring a driver to take us to our next destination,... More
