Even though hotel situated in the city center, From double room with balcony, or top roof guests can see the ancient city, temples and can see enchanting panoramic views where any other hotel couldn't provide in Anuradhapura.

Its very close to the border of the Sacred City area and 5 minutes walking distance to many ATM machines banks, super markets, local and other food centers, beer shops, lakes, bus station, pizza hut, fair and fruit and other shops, police station and hospital.10 minutes walking distance to new Railway station. . Everything is near you. You could not wasting money for tuk tuk. But sacred city area is close too.
