    Jaffna is still an unspoiled and hidden gem of a city.

    Jaffna is still an unspoiled and hidden gem of a city. People are super friendly and the city is bustling and easy to navigate. There is a beech just outside the city center which is quiet and beautiful. It was very hot when we visited in july but we did not mind this at all.

    Jaffna is lovely city and it’s a shame we didn’t stay longer. It has changed a lot since our last visit 7 years ago with a lot more development but a shame so many franchises have opened up. It has a nice mix of tourist attractions and yet maintains its charm as a local area. The Rio ice cream is the best! I wish we had more time to enjoy local cuisine.

    Jaffna is a hot place and therefore the transport facilities should facilitate the climate. Jaffna is also not clean as compared to the other places in Sri Lanka. Need a concerted public awareness campaign to all residents of Jaffna. People's attitude should change !!!

    We visited the The Jaffna Library, Fort, Point Pedro, Velvettithurai, Thalaiyadi Beach, Keerimala Sacred springs, Dambakola Patuna Temple, Nallur Kovil and KKS - On our way back to Colombo we stopped at Elephant Pass, Ree Cha leisure park and the Iranamadu water reservoir - Fabulous trip which helps us to explore the rich culture of Jaffna along with the beauty of a village with mesmerizing memories,

    Jaffna is a beautiful place to visit.

    Jaffna is a beautiful place to visit. Places and temples are beautifully crafted with ancestral works. People we met were friendly and courteous. Places like Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, Nagadeepa Vihara and Nagapooshani Amman Temple in an island, and few other places, it’s beyond words. Need to feel the atmosphere personally to have the divine presence and connection within one’s self. Best food eatery place for us is Jaffna Authentic Cuisine. Getting around places is convenient with auto and grab cabs too.

    This is an exceptional place where you can truly escape the hustle and bustle of every day life, where you are lulled to sleep at night the sound of waves. The eco-conscious huts are exceptionally well made and comfortable. Staff are universally friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. Do not miss the cuttlefish curry which is to die for. The very friendly owner went out of his way to help me plan my days in Jaffna. Highly recommended

    Clean & spacious rooms equipped with AC and Fans for a comfortable stay. The staff is very friendly, the breakfast exquisite. Always a mixture of Dal, chicken curry, eggs as well as bread & jam. The hotel is located very close to jaffna market and the main sites like Jaffna Fort, clock tower, public library etc. Are within walking distance. ~7min on foot is a big supermarket called Keells.

    The stay was great value for money. The hotel rooms are basic but clean and comfortable with air conditioning. Raj is fantastic host and was able to sort out tuktuks and our scooter hire (this being at very short notice). We had a lovely breakfast and enjoyed our stay in Jaffna.

    We had a wonderful time at Fox Jaffna. It is a very comfortable, atmospheric hotel with a lovely pool area and great food. We loved the art work and the art gallery. A special mention for Scotty who went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this hotel.
