"Overall it's OK, the price is a bit high, but you can't ask for much in a foreign country, the hotels in poor countries in Southeast Asia are all the same. This price is enough to stay in a very good five-star hotel in China"

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Fox Resort Jaffna. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and full of character – a perfect blend of history and modern comfort. A special thank you to Mr. Scoty, who made our stay truly memorable. His hospitality, friendliness, and attention to detail were outstanding. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us. The food was exceptional – delicious, fresh, and with a great variety. The restaurant experience was one of the highlights of our trip. Rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The entire staff was warm and welcoming, making us feel relaxed from the moment we arrived."

Jaffna Heritage Villa ★★★★
"We stayed here recently for one night as the Heritage Hotel was fully booked. The rooms are large and comfortable however the bathrooms are smaller than across the road at the Heritage hotel. The villa is only a few steps from the Nallur Temple and as we stayed during the festival it was interesting to see the devotees walk by. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Recommended!"

Dayanithi Guest House ★★★
"Beautiful place, too expensive for its category, its comfort and its location in comparison with other accommodation of the same type: 9000 SLR (26€) for a double with breakfast. Pretty villa outside, in a pleasant garden. The welcome from Robby and his assistant, who are employees, is warm. The interior of the villa is very simple. A few rooms with minimum comfort, small, tastelessly furnished. No decoration. Air conditioning, fan, television. Clean laundry. Very small but functional bathroom. The villa is far from everything. As it does not offer meals, you have to go to town by car if you want to eat. (on foot it takes 30 minutes one way). Breakfast is minimalist. The driver who was staying there was not even allowed morning tea. Damage"

North Gate Hotel ★★★★
"This was my third visit to this hotel spanning many years. The owners who took over the management of the hotel since four years ago, have done exceeding all expectations and have not only been consistent with standards but have improved them tremendously. The hotel is just under five minutes walk from the Jaffna Railway station! Front office under FM Gopi and with Ms Thuza begins the hospitality experience from booking to check out. We arrived early morning 2.45 am still had a fast fantastic check in. Rooms are large very very kept under excellent housekeeping. The Restaurant and Kitchen is a marvel beyond description! If one wants to savor the best Jaffna cuisine and taste this is it, best ingredients, best chefs and all authentic. This is a must visit destination to any North Bound traveller to Sri Lanka. Central to town, Nallur Kovil, Keerimalai , Jaffna Dutch Fort ."
