    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.

    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.

    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 .

    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.

    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.

    The 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.

    The hotel was nice, and the staff were very friendly and courteous. They attempted to resolve some of the issues we had staying in the hotel as best as they could. I think this is one of the few hotels in Jaffna with a pool, and even though the pool was small, it was was maintained quite well. I think it's one of the better hotels in Jaffna, but the price kinda reflects it. The location is near Jaffna town and very convenient. Has a lot of nice restaurants around the hotel.

    My room and the property were exceptionally clean. The bed was comfortable and there was sufficient lighting and power points. The food at the restaurant was tasty and reasonably priced. The beer was cold. Ahhhh! The staff was very helpful. Great quiet location. Do yourself a favor when in Jaffna, stay at the Gatetrees Resort… and maybe discover how it got its name.

    This is a newly built hotel. You can walk or hire a tuk to go there from Jaffna railway station. The bed ia really comfortable. The size of the room is bit small but as we didn't spend much time there it was alright for us. The boy in the reception is very polite and friendly. He also lent me his foot cycle to go to the neat by ATM.

    We spent 3 nights at the Hertiage Hotel and had the best time. The facilities are outstanding, the staff is super nice. Breakfast is superb. Having access to a pool in the heat of Jaffna is priceless. Great vegetarian food options around the corner. Rios Ice Cream is loved by locals and you should try it as well.
