Water garden is a beautiful resort to get away from the hustle bustle of Colombo. Special shout-out to Gihan who was looked into our every need during our stay. Cheers for an excellent service. We were offered a scenic and an informative board ride during which the naturalist gave an insight to the property as well as it's surroundings.
Many thanks to Sabrina who ensured that we were well looked after.
Rooms were beautifully designed in such a way that guest privacy is maintained and keep the guests engaged with nature.

Amazing property. Excellent service

We stayed with family when we visit anuradapura and hotel provide great facilities

Good food and friendly staff

we were only there for one night. Staff friendly and quite helpful. For the price a decent place to stay. watch out for the alligator in the creek. He seemed friendly, but we didn't get too close. Easy walk to bus station from here.

on the creek down a quiet road

Good and friendly service. Special thanks for Mr. Deepal who took care my parents all special requests. He prepared "kiri Pindu" to offer "Jaya Sri  Maha Bodhi" early morning as my parents wish.My parents had a good stay and they were happy about everything.

Good budget hotel

We had a really nice stay over there. The rooms are very nice and clean. The people who work there are very friendly and we got welcomed at the hotel with a nice glass of fresh juice!

Water garden hotel

Stayed at this hotel for a night and definitely did not exceed my expectations. It was just a standard room equipped with a comfortable bed, tv which doesnt have a remote and a bathroom which had insects walking on the walls due to an opened window which couldnt be closed. Breakfast was satisfying but the river behind the hotel was disappointing. Nothing to be excited about. Staff were friendly and helpful. Appreciate their hospitality. The door was really annoying because the key kept getting stuck,which means i couldnt come out of the room. Lucky the window was big enough the walk out of it.

Good enough for this location

pros : very nice staff,  food is great, Wi-Fi is speed, good location to visit the park.Cons : I wanted to visit Wilpattu national Park. The hotel recommended me a guide who scammed me with the entrance fee. he asked me to pay twice the normal foreigner price. at the beginning I trusted him but I quickly realised that was not the good price. the reception guy at the entrance was an accomplice too.

very  Nice stay except the scam

This was the worst place we stayed in SL. The room didn'th have the A.C. working and we use the fan to get the stench out of the room. It was full of mold in the bathroom and had poor ventilation. Young local boys were partying and shouted throughout our stay there. You can get cleaner and much peaceful place to stay for the same price in the area which is full of cozy homestays.

Worst room 😝

Cheap but a shambles.  Poor service, most service have very poor English (one young guy is best for organising everything).  Cold water in shower, lots of mosquitos and bugs.  Restaurant has good food but lots of mosquitos - a few other restaurants in area and easy to get around on a bicycle.

Cheap shambles

Water Garden is a few kilometres west of the town centre in a sort of hotel district with a few restaurants around (and the busy New Town area is an easy walk south across the train track).  The management is very disorganised in all respects and most staff know no more than very basic English, so organising anything can be difficult - but they can rent bicycles for 400 and do a bag of laundry for 500.  There’s one young guy who’s a bit better than the others at English and much better at organising things - you should meet him at breakfast.

The room looked small but ok, clean, AC and fan, TV that appeared to work but had no remote.  The bathroom had new fittings but was basic, smelly, had a window stuck open that let in lots of mosquitos and bugs, and had only cold water in the shower - which had medium pressure while the sink had very low pressure.  The bed had a base sheet and pillows but no other sheets were provided, nor a towel.  The restaurant is ok for food and prices, although quiet and disorganised, and the river looks nice but don’t get too close because it stinks and the hotel just has so many mosquitos at night.  The included breakfast was a large plate of fruit, then fresh fruit juice, then tea, then an egg accompanied by 8, count them, 8 pieces of toast (which sometimes arrived 15 minutes after the egg). There is a lot of noise in the evenings and early mornings - e.g., the kitchen staff like to shout a lot from 6am and that carries straight through to the rooms.

I think they’re trying to act like more than a basic budget hotel in the hope of getting foreign and premium tourists but they’re not succeeding.  However, it only cost about $15 per night (the cheapest place I stayed at in Sri Lanka and I regret going that low) and I don’t know how that compares in Sri Lanka - maybe the facilities are similar to $15 rooms in southeast Asia but the management is shambolic.
