What guests loved the most

“Spacious rooms but air cons were too small or less capacity. ”

, Sri Lanka

“Everything was very good. We were greeted with big smile upon arrival. The room layout was good and had all modern facilities. Top notch bedding. The restaurant is also my favourite. We had all 3 meals at the restaurant. The executive chef even shared recipes when I asked. Overall, my best hotel in sri Lanka because of its local charm.”

“Rooms are very nice. probably the best in Jaffna....”

, Sri Lanka

“Suite was beautifully designed and very well appointed - the private plunge pool was a welcome bonus! Very attentive and friendly staff. This is a relatively new venture that will.improve further in time. Employs many local Jaffna people and provides good training for its staff.”

, United Kingdom

“Wonderfull and spacious room. Almost too big for 2 persons. Shower, bed, private plunge pool and other amenities where absolutely 10/10. Would love to go here again once fully opened”

, Sri Lanka

“The thinnai was excellent. The hotel is brand new and still being built up. The restuarant while a tad expensive, is amazing. The food is ridiculously tasty. The crab and mutton curry is a must!”
