    My recent stay at Vavuniya Nelly Star Hotel in Vavuniya, Sri Lanka, was a pleasant experience that provided comfort and convenience during my visit to the city. This budget-friendly hotel offered a decent range of amenities and friendly service that made my stay enjoyable. The hotel's location was convenient, situated in a central area of Vavuniya. This allowed easy access to nearby attractions and essential amenities. Whether I needed to explore the local market or visit nearby landmarks, everything was within a short distance. The rooms at Vavuniya Nelly Star Hotel were clean and well-maintained. Though not overly spacious, they provided all the basic necessities for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep, and the room was equipped with essential amenities such as a television, air conditioning, and a private bathroom. The cleanliness and tidiness of the room were commendable. The hotel staff were friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with any queries or requests. Their warm hospitality added a personal touch to the stay, making me feel welcome and valued as a guest. They were knowledgeable about the local area and provided helpful recommendations for dining and sightseeing. Vavuniya Nelly Star Hotel offered a decent dining experience. The on-site restaurant served a variety of local and international dishes, allowing guests to sample a range of flavors. The food was tasty and reasonably priced, providing a convenient option for meals within the hotel premises. One aspect that could be improved is the overall ambiance of the hotel. While the rooms were comfortable, the common areas could benefit from some refurbishment and modernization to create a more inviting atmosphere. In conclusion, Vavuniya Nelly Star Hotel is a decent choice for travelers seeking a comfortable and affordable stay in Vavuniya. With its convenient location, friendly service, and clean rooms, it offers a satisfactory experience for those visiting the area. While it may lack some luxurious amenities, it provides good value for money and serves as a suitable base for exploring Vavuniya and its surroundings.

    I had a disappointing experience at Nelly Star Hotel in Vavuniya. The service was terrible as they failed to provide a basic necessity like a towel, despite me asking for it multiple times. I wouldn't recommend this hotel due to their lack of responsiveness and poor service.

    One of the main hotels in vavuniya. Room condition is somewhat ok for the price. Don't use the swiming pool unless you want to fall ill(it's not regulary cleaned) 2 wedding halls are there. I went to the smaller one. Fitted for a crowd arround 100.

    Such a worsted experience. Staffs are not friendly and bad manner, rude behavior staffs. Specifically that receptionist boy(spectacle boy) and room service boy(dark color and little bit beard boy) was waste behaviour and harsh talking with customers.rooms are not clean, room service too bad, they didn't maintain their room. After 10p.m we can't get at least hot water form the hotel. Totally worst room service and worst staff 🤮🤮🤮🤮.

    Very bad reception behaviour.. worst reception service in this hotel.. I am really disappointed 😞. But rooms are very clean and peaceful ✌. Please check the receptionist. No neatness and very hard speak. No response for customers... no customer care.

    Its the only hotel with decent accommodation in vavuniya. The rooms are reasonably good with ac and hot water. The environment is terrible though, no natural surroundings. We expected traditional tamil cuisine but instead it was the usual southern fast food. Its not very family friendly. However this is the only accomodation in vavuniya so can’t complain much

    We had a workshop at the Nelly Star Hotel and stayed there for 4 nights. The service of the staff was great and the food was okay as well. We stayed at A/C rooms these rooms had ample space and were clean. They also let us keep one room after checkout until our workshop ended that they.

    This hotel is comparatively ok. Rooms are quite lager than rooms of other hotels in the town. We got a tribal room which was bit smelly in the bathroom. Then hotel staff changed the room to better one which was excellent. It has two lager double beds and one single bed. Restaurant is available in the ground floor. There is a small swimming pool too. Bathroom has hot water.

    Absolutely unprofessional place. Doesn’t deserve the name hotel. Poorly trained staff, Zero Maintenance, High Health and Safety Risks. This Place required a-lot of improvement in hygienic factor. Moreover, strictly they have to reorganise the management to improve customer satisfaction which is currently below the worst level. Room charges are funny at the same time disappointing. Finally, my experience with this place to avoid and stay somewhere in decent hotel/ organise any functions in any other places. I hope the authorities look in to this and take strict action.

    Nelly Star Hotel is the most rewarded hotel in Vavuniya. They food is very delicious and service is upto standard. As I'm working for a corporate company we conduct our business meeting at Nelly. Very calm place and best place to have business meetings

  • 1/5 Ram 1 year ago on Google
    Average room. No hot water. Intercom doesn't work, so, no bed coffee. Very noisy guests.. And no lift.. After all these, I didn't bother to check out the meals.. Cut short my stay to just one night.
