Top 5-Star Hotels in Anuradhapura

A nice hotel with probably the nicest pool of all the hotels we stayed in whilst holidaying in Sri Lanka. It was clean large and surrounded by a nice garden. The staff are really friendly and try to make your stay nice. The rooms are a really good size and the beds comfortable. The bathrooms are a little dated and could do with a refurbishment, as could the gym. Food was a bit hit and miss. One night we had a great bbq and local food the next and not that great buffet. Good location near to a lot of the Cultural Triangle places.

This hotel is very beautiful. Even if it’s close to the road it feels private and close to nature. The pool was very nice, and the staff was so helpfull and warm! Rooms was really comfortable and new. The food was good, but not the best we had in Sri Lanka. Our expectations for the food was high because of the pictures on their website - its seems a bit like fine dining (it’s not). It’s also very few vegetarian options (mostly pasta). However the staff was so nice and welcoming so it’s still a five star hotel. RECOMMENDED!

We just spent three wonderful days at Uga Ulagalla, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness, making us feel right at home. The receptionists, Sakila, Jathu, and Darshika, were fantastic, always ready to assist with a smile and ensuring that every detail of our stay was perfect. The hotel is surrounded by breathtaking nature and offers stunning views that invite relaxation. The villas are spacious, comfortable, and offer unmatched privacy. Each day, it was a pleasure to return to our room after exploring the wonders of Sri Lanka. A special mention to Tharaka, the waiter, whose service was exceptional. Always attentive, he recommended the best dishes at the restaurant, and his friendliness made every meal even more special. If you're looking for a place to disconnect and enjoy impeccable service, Uga Ulagalla is definitely a fantastic choice. We hope to return soon!

The hotel rooms are basically two-story wooden detached houses with a very good environment, just like in the forest. The staff is very welcoming, the hotel facilities are great, the pool is beautiful, the buffet breakfast and dinner are plentiful. It's not too far to live here after watching Lion Rock.

The hotel is located in Anuradhapura, with beautiful pagoda ruins visible across a large lake. The environment of the hotel is quite beautiful, and the swimming pool is also very good. The supply of buffet breakfast is not stable. We stayed for 4 nights in a row. Breakfast was buffet breakfast on two days and set meal on two days. The explanation given by the hotel was that the buffet breakfast was not open because the tour bus had left and there were too few people. Anyway, it’s quite interesting to have a traditional Sri Lankan breakfast. Picture 1 is the set breakfast we had (the portions were huge), and Pictures 2 and 3 are the buffet breakfast.

We had a great 2 night stay at Milano Rest. The hotel has a retro Cuban vibe, and the rooms were nice and well arranged. The service was outstanding. The staff were incredibly helpful and accomodating about meals, organised a very reasonably-priced tuk tuk and tour of Anuradhapura and Mihintale, and generally ensured our stay was fantastic. Would highly recommend!

The Hotel is a small and cosy 4 rooms newly renovated villa and was kept clean and well maintained. Mahinda who was the receptionist, cook, and was one man show was friendly and flexible. A real gentleman! The hotel room is large in size, clean and basic with Bathroom with hot shower! The electric shower is not connected to the overhead shower, so the hot water comes out of the handheld shower and not the overhead shower. To run on the electric shower you just need to the inlet valve. Delicious dinner and breakfast. Overall I would recommend this hotel !! Enjoy 😊
