Stayed at this hotel recently and the location was easy to find and not busy. The place is however not so spacious and the garden needs some more work to complete. Nothing 'scenic' or to be called an 'attraction' such as a lake. No pool yet but there was talk of having one put up. Surrounded by a wall the... More

Alakamanda is a new hotel located at the outskirts of Anuradhapura in a quiet area. There are only 6 rooms, each with a terrace bordering the garden. Rooms are of a decent size with a comfortable bed and a modern bathroom. The restaurant serves tasty rice and curry and other dishes. The atmosphere is personal and relaxed. The price/quality is...

Very pleasant hotel; a good alternative to all those hotels in Anuradhapura that welcome coach tourists. Very friendly and helpful staff, very reasonable food prices. It will be even better when the swimming pool is completed (summer 2013).

Had a really great stay here. Nice modern rooms, beautifully done. Great service. The food was excellent, but mostly foreign. Price was a bit high, but worth it IMO. The bed sheets and towels appeared spotless to me.

It is clean, new, and the staff and friendly and surprisingly the restaurant for dinner was great. The hotel didn't have driver accommodation but they organised some nearby which was terrific. It was a... More

Anuradhapura is a tourist spot - so don't expect too much! Alakamanda is located off the track, which is fine. At presence it only serves 6 rooms, the pool is under construction - and that can be quite noisy. The place is new, but the building quality is bad and therefore it already looks used. The rooms are very basic,... More

On arrival we were bomardard with mosquitoes...the hotel had obviously had issues with water ingress. Th room smelt damp and the walls were stained from water. we were really disappointed with the hotel baring in mind it was so new. There is only one communal area to sit and thats the restaurant but it closes at 10pm, you therefore have... More

This was our second hotel in our tour in Sri Lanka. We made the booking by phone,getting a better price than in the booking sites. They were really nice and took us from the train station. Hotel is a bit far from the city center, so if you want to go there you would need to arrange a taxi or... More
