Jaffna is highly recommendable if you like to see Sri Lanka...
Jaffna is highly recommendable if you like to see Sri Lanka in a less mainstream tourist way. There is a lot to see, very interesting history and lots of cultural and religious highlights. Go to Nagadeepa and Delft Islabd as well for a day.Else Loes en Felix - 10Scored 10
Jaffna has always been a lovely place to visit.
Jaffna has always been a lovely place to visit. This time we went to Kayts and saw what was left of the old Fort as well as Hammond Hiel across the water. Went to Point Pedro as well...It was a pity that there was a postbox at the northern most point of Sri Lanka - but no postcards or stamps!!! Seeing flamingos and other migrants across from the causeway to Kayts was a bonus. Food is always great and we would recommend Lavin's for some excellent parathas and paper dosai.ppriyanthiSri Lanka - 6.0Scored 6.0
Jaffna was not as I expected .
Jaffna was not as I expected . Staying where I did you really needed your own transportation. I tried unsuccessfully to rent a bike ,and was told by Click hire place they were booked out for a few days ,I wondered about this as I hardly saw any other tourists ,and other companies didn’t return calls . Fort was really disappointing compared to Galle ,and they charge admission ! Restaurants recommended by lonely planet good , but Mangos has closed ,the Malaya is very good ,as is Akshatai ,but avoid Green Grass ,it’s horrible ,I couldn’t imagine staying there ! Rio Icecream is really good .Robert - 10Scored 10

Very different to Colombo and other suburbs, but Jaffna has its own unique vibe. Pretty laid back I would say. The locals are friendly, but communicating with them could be a little challenging unless you spoke Tamil. Plenty of things to see and many different foods to try.

Its a quiet village with less population.
Its a quiet village with less population. Nice for a quiet getaway. Small and cosy town. Food is good and friendly people. Temples are good to visit too. The trip to Nainativu is unsafe. Boats were overloaded and I was afraid of a stampede because of the crowd. Other than that, everything else was a good experience for me.singam - 10Scored 10

Takes two days to travel around all the attractions, first day travel the east from Jaffna town with a rented vehicle which is much cheaper than the other areas. Other day travel nagadeepa and close by locations to Jaffna city. It was a nice experience around there for the everyone, but must pre plan everything.NavarathnaSri Lanka

- From US$117.46 per night8.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 356 reviewsThe Hotel is very lovely and is full of old world charm. Our room opened onto the front courtyard which we enjoyed. The staff was helpful organizing day tours with a locally certified and knowledgeable guide. The restaurant staff is very friendly and provide intentive service. We traveled to Jaffna for the food and were surprised every morning and evening with high quality and delicious Jaffna cuisine. We were able to learn from the chef in an interactive cooking lesson. We enjoyed our 4 days at the Fox Jaffna and can recommend staying there.MaureenGermany
- From US$21.78 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 109 reviewsThe location of the hotel is very eco friendly, away from the town area free from noise and pollution. Home made food were provided on request as per our request. Mr. Suren was very friendly and readily available at any time. He recommended a tuk tuk Mr. Siva, he is well experienced tour guide and knows every corner of Jaffna. We were very happy that he took us to many historical places. Moreover with regard to the accommodation if they could provide a small TV, a mini fridge and hot water facility.
RochelNew Zealand - 5.0Scored 5.0AverageRated passable· 20 reviewsThrough Booking.com we have booked a room and it was confirmed according to the msg. Over the phone also I have confirmed. But just before we reach jaffna when I called to pre-order our meals they said the particular room has been allocated to someone else and our reservation isn't possible. And later they said that they're in the middle of reservation and the room isn't fit for use. What I like was at least they have told that the room was unavailable before reaching the hotel 😆.madhuSri Lanka
- From US$13.30 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very goodRated very good· 292 reviewsIt is located in a walking distance to the Nallur Kandaswami temple and also not far from the major attractions in Jaffna. If you travel to Jaffna by train it is much more easier to reach by a tuk tuk. I was traveling to experience the Nallur feast 2023 and had a great time due to the Inns' location mainly. Apart from that the staff is very helpful and friendly. Really worth the price. I recommend it 👌
Sam_lkSri Lanka - From US$60.50 per night7.0Scored 7.0GoodRated good· 342 reviewsThe location is great, right next to the train station and the food served at the hotel restaurant is one of the tastiest in Jaffna. We got a free upgrade to a deluxe room, so that was great as well. The room was quite big and spacious and with a balcony. The swimming pool was nice and pleasant to use, and not crowded at all. They even let us check-out one hour later.
