This is one of the best options to stay in Jaffna. It’s not in the city centre, more on the outskirts of the city , there’s nothing around, so you basically plan your time in the resort. The hotel itself is nice , the rooms look a bit old but clean , there was no hot water in our room. The territory of the hotel is beautiful with the pool , restaurant, little museums to visit (ex bunkers). The food in the restaurant is yummy , the staff is friendly and polite, especially Scotty , he was very helpful and nice to us during our stay. Good experience at this hotel, just the water situation in the rooms should be improved.

Tout est très bien ici, l'accueil chaleureux, les salariés travaillent beaucoup pour que tout soit impeccable, la chambre est nickel, l'endroit est calme et bien agencé. La nourriture très correcte (mais comme partout le no spicy vous arrache un peu la bouche tout de même...). Et la piscine sympathique. Merci à toute l'équipe.

The team is so well prepared, very attentive , and always helpful. Unbelievable service . All areas from security guard,reception , house keeping , and the restaurant and kitchen staff were always there for anything . This is our 6th visit and will always come back as it’s like our second home . Food is great as well . But it’s the attentive service that stands out and it’s also very discreetly done . Thanks for a super stay

We recently visited Fox Jaffna with our family and were truly impressed by every aspect of our stay. The rooms were exceptionally clean, well-appointed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The entire property was immaculate, with a serene setting that beautifully blends modern comfort with deep historical significance. As someone from the U.S. traveling with my Sri Lankan husband—who had never been to Jaffna before—this was a meaningful and eye-opening experience. The hotel is filled with relics from the war and an impressive collection of artwork by renowned Sri Lankan painters, offering a powerful and moving glimpse into the region’s past and cultural richness. The on-site restaurant served authentic local cuisine with generous portions that left us more than satisfied. Every meal felt like a celebration of Jaffna’s culinary heritage. The staff were warm, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area, offering thoughtful recommendations and insights that enhanced our visit. Fox Jaffna is more than just a hotel—it’s a cultural experience wrapped in comfort and care. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore the north of Sri Lanka with both heart and history in mind.

One of the best places to stay in Jaffna. Superb food and we had great service from Amith and Agilan as well as Chef Pushpe. Beautiful landscaped garden and a great art gallery.

Surrounded by a warm and welcoming atmosphere, it was a truly enjoyable stay. The food was authentic and absolutely delicious. Most importantly, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. A special thanks to Fox Jaffna’s General Manager, Mr. Trevine Mottau, and the wonderful waiting staff, including Mr. Amith Kumar and Mr. Scoty Milroy, for their exceptional service. Our whole family was very pleased with the experience, and the kids loved it! We truly hope to come back again.
