January 2023 - this was our second visit to Hotel 4 U Saliya Garden and I'm so glad we came back! The staff were just as inviting and friendly as I remember them, attending to our every need and request. The breakfast provided was so delicious and they served so many yummy fruit drinks made from the garden on site! My favourite was the watermelon drink that I had been waiting to have again since the first time I stayed here, the pineapple drink they served before breakfast was delightful as well!! The food options are all mouth-watering and the portion sizes were generous. Everything in the rooms was very comfortable and I instantly felt at home. The facilities were all very well maintained and the staff were incredibly hospitable in every way. The most notable accomodating thing they did for us was set up a space below the main dining area (which is above ground) for my grandfather who cannot climb steps easily. For every meal, they took the time to clean and set up the area below the deck for us to sit and eat there just like anyone else and my grandfather was incredibly appreciative. The owner was one of the most wonderful people I've ever met. He is very passionate and does a lot of charity work throughout Sri Lanka and Anuradhapura. He takes the time to talk to everyone, particularly my grandfather who loves to talk and get to know people. When we mentioned to him that we were going to donate and give out food parcels and kids' school items for poorer families, he also mentioned a woman whose family needed help and also gave us the number of a place where lots of kidney dialysis patients were living and in need of help. Because of him we were able to visit this place and spend some time with the patients, get involved a lot with charity for them and we are forever grateful for that. The owner is also very environmentally friendly and has installed a lot of solar panels to not just save money but also help the environment! When visiting Anuradhapura I never have to look for a place to stay anymore, I know without a doubt that this is where I want to be.
