Four of us stayed here in January 2024. THe rooms were comfortable and well equipped. The large quite modern building included a spacious swimming pool and a large garden randomly assembled. So far so 4*. My rating for the catering is far lower. The breakfast offering was just not very good at all, lacking in variety and with no helping staff in attendance. The restaurant area you had to go through to reach the rooms, it felt very public as though included as an afterthought. Disappointing, given how excellent Srilankan hotel breakfasts often are. A very small bar area is there with a couple of sofas on which to relax. THe hotel is located some way away from the Sacred City, so a vehicle is required, but that's not a major problem.

It was a great pleasure to spend our wonderful family vacation in the best hotel in Anuradhapura. We selected a hotel after a thorough search and we would never regret the choice we made. The staff was very friendly and even before we reach the hotel, they were able to prepare a family room to match our requirements. The manager was very friendly and the whole staff made sure that all the clients were satisfied. They gave us a very warm welcome and the room was excellent. The rooms with the pool view are the best. Our room was very spacious regardless the fact that 5 of us were in the same room. It was cozy and clean. The breakfast and the dinner were fascinating. They had arranged a buffet for both the breakfast and the dinner. The dinner included a range of Sri Lankan, Thai and western cuisine. The breakfast included many Sri Lankan foods such as string hoppers, milk rice and many more. I would definitely select Hotel Alakamanda to spend my vacation whenever I visit Anuradhapura.

We stayed for two nights at this hotel, really lovely & friendly staff. The pool & hotelroom is very nice. English breakfast with fruits, toasted bread & eggs (w bacon/saugages) & coffee/tea. Dinner was served in a buffet with different options. Can’t say much about the location but the driver took us to several nice temples from here. Manjula (restaurant manager) is doing his best to check if you’re satisfied!

We have ordered Alms Giving buffet from Alamkandawa Hotel for our katina pinkama where as they provided soups, main course, apetizers, and desserts as per our choice. (We also added fruits and some other items) I reaaly appreciate their keeness to provide the very best service. They came to check the location the day before and had a nice discussion with us to make sure everything happnes perfectly fine. I really am greatful for that committment, coz by handing over the almsgiving to them, bcoz of the previous arrangements and discussions we had, I felt really peaceful in mind, bcoz the day before the alms giving, we have decided everything including how the flow of event would happen, how the tables would be arranged, how the desserts would be arranged etc. We wanted to provide delicious alms giving, with luxurious food and design, the very best way, I think Alakamndawa team provided one of the very best services and very best buffet. Especial thanks to CEO of hotel and Mr, Manjula and Chef Sampath and the team who came.Thank you very much for the committment and service. Wonderful job!

Lovely views from room and nice infinity pool. Rooms were okay but bathroom was mostly and no way to ventilate. Food was okay but was buffet for breakfast and dinner which was very similar to every place on sti lanka. Staff were very friendly. Good location.

This hotel is tucked away from the huddle and bussle of Anuradhapura city. The grounds are well maintained and clean equipped with clean swimming pool. Rm 28A and 29A was upstairs so you ask for ground floor room is mobility is an issue. The rooms are spacious and clean with ammenities similar to other hotels. However bathroom in 28A smelt like swerage which my kids didn’t complain about because we were just staying overnight. Yep there were cockroaches and a lizard in room so let the fantastic staff know if that’s an issue. Breakfast was mediocre. Continental breakfast was old and chewy so we just had traditional food which was really tasty and yes fresh. Coffee sachets kept running out so just ask. The juice was made with tap water as alluded by staff so as a tourist refrain from drinking juices. Staff worked hard which was obvious and they all had great personalities. But overall similar 3 star hotel had better systems and processes. Trip typeHoliday · Family Rooms4.0Service4.0Location4.0 Hotel highlightsQuiet RoomsClean and neat but had tired linen. Pillow inside was stained and looked really old.

We celebrated this new year at Hotel Alakamanda. It was a wonderful experience. This is the first time we celebrated the new year outside, But we had an amazing experience. The staff organized a new year festival for enjoyment and was superb. They did all the customs at relevant auspicious times. Though there were guests from all over Sri Lanka, it felt more like a family event. The food was delicious. They had an action buffet for the dinner as well. A band played music during dinner. The service was superb. It was a beautiful vibe out there. I highly recommend this hotel to anybody who plans their stay in Anuradhapura.

The hotel is along the road far from shops, bars and restaurants, if you haven’t a car you’re bound there. It is a little outdated and would need maintenance but the room was large and comfortable and the bathroom had a large shower. I needed to ask for towels but they arrived. On the contrary towels for the swimming pool are not available. There is complimentary tea/coffee/water. No safe, no hair dryer. The food is definitely mediocre. One night was a buffet and another a set menu with some options none of which very appealing. The waiters can’t speak English and they keep on coming to take away your dish. I wanted to try a beer but they only had one liter bottles, too much for me. Breakfast too is not special, canned juice, poor choice of fruit and cereals, no yogurt, no eggs to eat with your bacon and sausage (only hard boiled eggs). There is a 10m swimming pool, ideal for children and not too bad for a few strokes. Wifi is good and they accept credit cards.

It was one the greatest stays I've ever stayed. Hotel staff was also done a good service (specially the restaurant manager). And the hotel environment is very calm and attractive. Their meals are very clean and delicious. So therefore, I can recommend this as a good place to spend your vacation.
