Thambu Illam
4.5/521 Reviews
We felt like home from the moment we stepped into this beautiful 4 bedroom villa which has been tastefully decorated not disturbing it's old charm. Madhu was an excellent host and made our stay even more comfortable by attending to all our requirements. He was also helpful in giving us tips on the places to visit almost like a personal tour guide! We had the whole place to ourselves and having a pool was a bonus. Most importantly the food was exceptional! We got to try all the famous Jaffna curries and other local dishes. It is ideal for a group of friends or a family for a weekend getaway.
Fox Jaffna
4.5/558 Reviews
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.
Tilko City Hotel Jaffna
4.4/513 Reviews
When we arrived there was no welcome at all. We had to take our luggage by ourselves to the lobby. I chose Tilko as per the pictures on Booking.com but reality was totally different. Though I’ve informed them that it would be a couple they provided twin beds when we arrived after a long journey from Colombo though later on somebody came & fixed the bed. Room wasn’t cleaned and out of order. The towel had a foul smell. Kettle was broken and everything was full of rust in the bathroom (pictures attached). No bathroom amenities as shown in the pictures. AC had a horrible smell plus the room. There was no selection of foods for foreigners in buffet (only Indian food for breakfast) We didn’t have a choice but to eat whatever they had. During dinner we ordered for seafood fried rice with chilli prawns as a side dish. After sometime the waiter came & informed us that some of the dishes weren’t available including prawns though they’ve added some old prawns in the fried rice which was quite surprising. The food was not fresh at all. Everything was cold as if it was made long time ago. Balcony door couldn’t lock. Found insects in the room too. Even the swimming pool was discolored. Overall a horrible experience!! As a travel agent I was really disappointed with this experience. I would never recommend this place to tourists.
Green Grass Hotel & Restaurant
2.7/511 Reviews
During my visit to Jaffna for the Nallur festival in September, I unfortunately did not make a prior hotel reservation and decided to check availability at The Valampuri hotel upon arrival. However, I was informed that due to high demand, the hotel was fully booked. The receptionist recommended their sister company, Green Grass Hotel, which I reluctantly agreed to stay in, considering it was late at night and I had already traveled a long journey by train. The reservation at Green Grass Hotel was for six days. Upon reflection, I regret staying at Green Grass Hotel. The room provided was unclean and located in a secluded corner of the hotel. The bed appeared worn out with evident stains on the sheets. The condition of the toilet was disappointing, with cockroaches freely moving around. Moreover, the availability of hot water was inconsistent; it was only available on certain days. When I requested the cleaning staff to tidy the room while I explored Jaffna, their service was subpar, and I doubted if the bed sheets were even changed. Despite being listed as a two-star hotel on ***********, I would rate this hotel as a one-star establishment based on my experience. Although Green Grass Hotel claimed to have Wi-Fi, it did not function properly throughout my stay. Despite complaining about this issue for four consecutive days, no resolution was provided. It is worth mentioning that while some of the staff members were helpful, others displayed rude and unhelpful behavior. If circumstances force you to stay at Green Grass Hotel for one night in the absence of alternatives, I would strongly advise finding a more accommodating hotel in Jaffna as soon as possible. The overall experience at Green Grass Hotel was certainly not worth the stay.
