Facing the seafront in Delft East, Delft Village stay has free bikes and a garden. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. The homestay features garden views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk. Excellent hostel on the remote island of Delft. The owner has put a lot of effort into making the place really welcoming. The tents all have fans and outlets for charging your phone. Tommy, the owner, is super friendly and accommodating. Considering its location, it's pretty amazing that there are so many comforts! Drinking water is provided for only 50 rupees a liter. Tommy and his family will also make breakfast and dinner for a nominal cost.

Situated in Jaffna, 1.9 km from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, Thambu Illam features accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a restaurant. With free WiFi, this 4-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. The hotel offers garden views and an outdoor pool. Such a beautiful house, the pictures don’t do it justice it’s even nicer in real life. Staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. Helped us organise excursions in the Jaffna area. Breakfast is great and we also had dinner in the hotel a couple of nights which we also really enjoyed. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else if we ever go back to Jaffna

Allens home stay, a property with a terrace, is set in Jaffna, 600 metres from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, 1.5 km from Jaffna Railway Station, as well as 2.6 km from Jaffna Public Library. The property is around 3.1 km from Jaffna Fort, 14 km from Nilavarai Well and 20 km from Naguleswaram Temple. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Allen, as mentioned over and over in other reviews, is the best host EVER. This kind of people makes the difference when traveling like we do, where the main goal is to enjoy the culture and people, as much as the places we visit. Allen went way beyond expectations on helping us with whatever we may need (from train schedules, arranging a great driver for a day-long tour, giving us recommendations for local places, to taking his bike and buying us some cold beers after hours, or getting up to prepare us an unusually early morning breakfast to go, due to our very early schedule), overall making us feel like his true guests despite the commercial relationship. Well-travelled, Jaffna-native but with many years in Europe, Allen is the kind of person that you hope you have more time to get to know better, and that will remain as a highlight of any trip. The property is his own home, where you rent some rooms. It is a very quiet spot in a green and shady compound in a cul-de-sac, a great respite from some of the Jaffna frenzy. Located a quick 5-min. tuk-tuk ride from the train station, it is also near the main Hindu temple of the city, a couple of blocks away. The room we rented had its own exclusive bathroom, but crossing the living room. There was another room with a full private bathroom, not available at the time. The house has a quaint feeling, very cozy and clean. The AC in the room worked fine and it was very welcomed. Breakfast was great, abundant and tasty, prepared by Allen on the spot.

Located in Jaffna, 1.1 km from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, The Thinnai Hotel - Jaffna provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden. Featuring room service, this property also welcomes guests with a restaurant and a terrace. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared lounge and free WiFi throughout the property. I loved my stay at the Thinnai (and Jaffna overall, it’s a shame that people skip this place). There was a small miscommunication about take away breakfast, but they sincerely apologised and made up for it with a surprise from the kitchen. Breakfast is also very nice and I definitely recommend the Odiyal Kool which tasted amazing!

The place is equipped with 3 spacious rooms, and you have the entire place to yourself (home away from home). Large attached bathrooms with hot water. Perfect for families. Service: The place is super clean and well maintained. Friendly staff. Great hospitality. Staff is very supportive and they go above and beyond to make your stay a happier one. The owner Mr. Rajkumar is friendly and helpful, speaks English, Tamil and Sinhalese fluently, and just a call away. The caretakers Thaksi and Ranjit make you feel at home (caution: they literally become part of your family if you stay long 😂). Meals: Serves homemade authentic Jaffna breakfast - cooked with love ❤️ Highly recommended 👌

Set 3.6 km from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, Munril Guest offers accommodation in Jaffna with access to a hot tub. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Absolutely lovely stay at Munril Guest! The rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with both air conditioning and a fan. The villa itself is beautiful, with a peaceful and green setting just a few minutes by tuk-tuk from the city center, a perfect balance of quiet and convenience. The facilities are excellent, but what really stands out is the incredible friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts. They even offered free rides to local sights, which was a wonderful bonus. Breakfast was also delicious and well-prepared. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Jaffna!
