Anuradhapura Hotel Questions, Answered

  • How much is a room in Anuradhapura at Goalma?

    A double room (also called Standard) is $20 a night, a large double (also called Comfortable) $20 and a family room $35. Every room is air conditioned with a private bathroom and hot water, a ceiling fan and free Wi-Fi. Breakfast can be added when you book.

  • Where is Goalma and how far is the sacred city?

    We are in Anuradhapura, a few minutes from Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi and Kuttam Pokuna, so the main sacred city sites are a short drive rather than a day trip. We collect you from the property for every tour and safari we run, so you do not need your own transport while you are here.

  • Do you have family rooms?

    Yes. The family room is $35 a night and is the one most families book. If you are travelling as a group we can put adjoining rooms together, so tell us how many of you there are and we will arrange it rather than leaving you to book room by room.

  • Can you arrange a Wilpattu safari from the resort?

    Yes, and it is the reason most guests choose us. We own the resort and run the safaris ourselves, so the room, the early start, the drive to the park gate and the jeep all come from one host at one price. There is no second hotel to book and no separate operator to coordinate with.
