The hotel is set in an old Jaffna villa on Brown Road, 10 minute walk from the city center. Wonderful place and very nice staff to assist you with anything you need. They do not have a restaurant but the catered food you can order from an extensive menu is great.

Nice small hotel in the center of Jaffna, yet in a fairly quiet area. Our room was a bit basic, but at our request two rocking chairs were immediately added, so we could also read in the room. The hotel does not have its own restaurant, but you can have food delivered based on a menu. The food is then served on the terrace. The breakfast is also delicious with lots of fruit and an egg of your choice. But the best thing about the hotel is the very friendly and helpful staff. Awesome!

This is a 4 bedroom hotel in old house and provides lovely setting. The manager and staff are really helpful without being annoying. There is a small pool and garden area at front and back. I only had one night there but wish I was able to stay longer. I had overnight train from Colombo and arrived to torrential rain and they proactively called me to check if needed to check in early. Fortunately the room was available. I also had the Jaffa breakfast which was good. The photos are accurate. Would definitely go back and would be great place for group stay.

We had a lovely stay here. Room was very spacious. Bed was comfortable and bedding was fresh and clean. Bathroom was nice and clean and shower was hot. A/C worked well. Wi-Fi was good. Breakfast was nice and plentiful although it would have been ice to have some juice. The only think I would say is that it was overpriced for what you get

Small, relatively newly renovated villa with only 4 large rooms, some even with 2 rooms. Very good location (approx. 1.2 km from the center), great breakfast and for dinner the food was ordered from a restaurant with a varied menu. The staff was extremely friendly, courteous and helpful. Also worth mentioning is the small but very clean and tasteful pool with a small terrace. We will definitely stay there again if we go to Jaffna again. Petra and Frank

Turned back after seeing the place. The food is not prepared in the house, it is sourced from outside hence guests have no insight into its hygiene. The house has no ambiance of a hotel and the access gets waterlogged after rain.
