    Located just 500 meters away from Kandaswamy Temple in Nallur, Jaffna, this hotel is recommended to stay. Not star rated but has a friendly staff and gives a good service. Only serves Vege food and non-alcoholic beverages due to the close proximity to the temple. Spacious rooms and also has a pool to swim and relax. Has a large garden as well. On request they may provide tuk-tuks or scooters from outside. Good service.

    Beautiful hotel in the central area of Jaffna Town. Well maintained clean rooms and toilet. Rooms are big, spacious and comes with tea making facility. Super friendly, warm, respectful and helpful staff. The staff went the extra mile to not only meet the needs of the customers but also to make sure they have a pleasant stay. For example, we reached the hotel after 8pm and the kitchen was about to close. As we were so tired and hungry, the chef and staff stayed behind to cook what we requested for and waited patiently till we finished our meals. On another occasion, my friend had a bad bout of food poisoning at around 12pm and the staff at the reception was quick to come our aid. We were so touched by their care. Excellent service provided by all the staff. Strongly recommended. As the hotel is near Nallur temple, this hotel only provides vegetarian food. They provide good vegetarian food.

    Located in a walking distance to Nallur Kovil, it is a dainty little place. Rooms are clean and comfortable, but relatively small. Bathroom is bigger. This hotel is pure vegetarian, therefore liquor or meat is not allowed to bring in. The staff is very helpful and polite. Driver's quarters available in a separate building, at a cost. Had a pleasant experience in the location. Good place to bring the kids.

    Certainly one of the best hotels in Jaffna. Big, nice, fully equipped rooms with tea coffee making facilities. In the center of town. He has a swimming pool. Very highly recommended. There are hundreds of temples nearby fulfilling your Spiritual needs. Lots of eateries nearby.

  • 3/5 Niran W. 11 months ago on Google
    It was one night stay and I must appreciate the staff's service style was very friendly, dedicated and looking for further opportunities to serve when required. It was located close proximity to the "Nallur Kovil" and easy access to the hotel. Car park exit gate was closed due to their maintenance convenience which I believe is inappropriate. Swimming pool seemed fairly clean and average maintenance, however the hotel room's amenities were so poor, specially the bathroom cupboards, windows, towels, bedside table lamps, bed linens, hand towels, blind curtains etc. Very interrupted sleep at night as the mattress was super uncomfortable since the hotel has joined two single beds as a double. I could find so many insects in the room which I believe the hotel must implement immediate pest control sessions urgently for health & safety of the fellow guests coming to experience this property.

    Absolutely perfect base for a rich Jaffna experience. Perfect service, clean rooms and delicious food in the perfect location. Remembering Jaffna heritage is important - the art on the walls captures some ancient Jaffna Tamil practices and the staff know all the important places to visit and how to get there. The pool and floors are maintained daily, the staff are professional with unique local knowledge. 10/10 recommend this hotel.

    We stayed in Jaffna Heritage Hotel for 3 nights and absolutely loved our stay there! The hotel felt so homely and the room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. After a long day of travelling in Jaffna it felt so good to come back to Jaffna Heritage Hotel. Also, have to mention how impeccable the service was. All staff members were so helpful, friendly and accomodating. My husband and I fell in love with the city of Jaffna and Jaffna Heritage Hotel in equal measure!

    Comfortable beds though disappointing washroom as part of the glass wall of shower cubicle is missing and the floor is non-tiled. Buffet breakfast is good. Close to Nallur temple, no public transportation so spent more on taxis.

    Jaffna Heritage Hotel is a good option for budget-minded travelers who are looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay in Jaffna. It's not the most luxurious hotel in town, but it's clean, well-maintained, and has a friendly staff. The hotel is vegetarian, so if you're not a vegetarian, you may want to consider staying somewhere else.

    This was the best highlight of my recent trip to Jaffna. The hotel is situated in the middle of the town. Front desk was very helpful and cooperative. The room was spacious and really clean. The bathroom too was very spacious and spotless. We ordered two bed teas in the morning and they were generous enough to waive off that from our bill too. The restaurant was closed that day so we couldnt try out their food. Note that its a full vegetarian hotel. There is a small swimming pool as well (which we didnt use) and the parking space might be enough for about 6 vehicles. Highly recommended place!

  • 5/5 Sudheera S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very well maintained and super friendly staff. The food was fresh, authentic and tasty. Located in walking distance to Nallur Temple, Rio Ice Cream and close by to Jaffna railway station and many restaurants, tourist attractions. Away from the city center and busy roads, so the surrounding is calm and quiet. Rooms are spacious and odourless. Stable wifi, good A/C in rooms and Dialog TV with all channels active. Wall paintings, pencil arts and room decor are breathtaking. The place is vegetarian and non-alcoholic, which is as per our preference. The staff was helpful, specially the manager (Wije). They all made sure our stay in Jaffna was enjoyable and worthwhile. An area for improvement is the bathroom and fittings. This will be our preferred option when we are again in Jaffna. Well-done!

    It was a very nice stay at Jaffna Heritage Hotel. Beautiful and quiet place and closer to the Nallur Kovil and other important places in the Northern peninsular. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Thank you so much Manager Vije and his team for great hospitality and yummy Ginger Milk (இஞ்சி பால்). We will definitely will visit again.

  • 5/5 Sujeevan S. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly staffs who were very accommodating, large rooms and beds, and reasonably clean bathroom. The swimming pool is reasonably well maintained. On the negative side they only serve vegetarian breakfast. For every other meal and snacks guests must step out.

  • 4/5 Lucy B. 2 years ago on Google
    The staff here are super super friendly and attentive. The breakfast was delicious with a great variety of food. The room was, clean, spacious and comfortable. The only comment would be that the pool had a few broken tiles which were sharp and cut one of our feet.

  • 5/5 Jeremy S. 1 year ago on Google
    Well managed, tidy, clean, quiet and well located. I highly recommend this hotel, from far the best I’ve stayed in so far in Jaffna. The staff is extremely helpful and kind (thank you Rajeevan and Sugeevan). They will arrange anything you ask for and will always make sure you are satisfied. And the pool is great!

    The service is top notch and the rooms are excellent. Clean and spacious. I was skeptical about the vegetarian breakfast buffet but it was a delicious surprise. Genuine Jaffna cuisine. Special shout-out to manager Wijekumara and Rajeevan for making our stay a memorable one.

  • 4/5 R K. 1 year ago on Google
    I went and stay with my childhood friend as we both were the former residents of Nallur for 35 yrs and more. It gave us a homely atmosphere as we knew the area. The staffs are very attentive and most caring about their visitors. The breakfast buffet was good and homemade types. As I didn't bring the swimming trunk, the Manager, Mr.Wijeyakumara has taken an extra care to made the necessary attire to allow me to used the pool along with the friend. It's a nice and very quite ambiance and love to visit again especially for the warm greetings tendered by Mr.Wijeya and his deputy Mr.Rajeevan along with their 4 or 5 efficient staffs. I really appreciate the quick change of the kettle that was cracked while I made the hot water for the coffee attempt.😀 The owner has to update the curtains of the room and a new bath wares for the big bathrooms.

  • 5/5 Ashad A. 1 year ago on Google
    Central location, plush rooms, clean and comfortable. The staff were courteous and accommodating. Excellent service. They have bed and breakfast, so try that out, definitely 😋 They're closer to the Nallur kovil, Jaffna Archeological Museum, library, fort, etc.. Oh, also the original Rio ice cream store..
