Summary of traveller reviews

Hotel Shalini in Anuradhapura offers a welcoming atmosphere with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, who often arrange insightful tuk-tuk tours. Guests rave about the delicious food, especially the curries and breakfast. While some rooms could be cleaner and Wi-Fi can be spotty, the overall experience is highly recommended for solo travellers and groups seeking local experiences.

Me and my 5 friends stayed here and absolutely loved it. The rooms were simple and had everything we needed. They made us dinner, which was a huge spread of different curries, it was the best food we've had in Sri Lanka so far! The next day we went on a Tuktuk tour around Anuradhapura with one of the members of staff, he showed us everything and was very knowledgeable about all of the sites. We loved it!!

This place has all the basics. Unfortunately I was the only one there at the time and so there was no atmosphere and I felt a bit pressured by the host to come out and eat dinner there and to travel with his driver.
