Top Northern Province Hotel Reviews

North Gate Jaffna

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel with fantastic staff who were very courteous, helpful and hospitable, Location very convenient with train too being situated very near the Jaffna rail station. Rooms are large and practical. Will definitely stay here when in Jaffna next."

Hotel Oviya

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful room with double beds, double AC and double fans. Tiles on floor so no warm when you left your room and came back. A balcony with view on the sunrise. Room is clean and well prepared on time. In the room there are wardrobe, desk and a small table with 4 chairs. Staff is very nice and polite. They could speak tamil, sinhalese and english and are very helpful. Thanks a lot for the warm welcome. I ordered tea every day and dishes for dinner are tasty and room service is very pleasant. 2 and half hours from Jaffna and 2 hours from Sigirya by car. The hotel is in the center of Vavuniya, well placed, with in 5 minutes walk, you will find shops, jewelry stores, veg restaurants and small markets. A total immersion in day to day life. I enjoyed my 3 days journey. If you are looking a safe place to take rest and planning your travel it is the best choice !"

Subhas Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at Subhas Hotel for 9 nights and we had an excellent experience! The Hotel staff were very kind, polite, and helpful! They answered all our questions and eager to help in anyway they can. They made our trip to Jaffna a great experience. The Hotel breakfast was amazing and definitely something I was looking forward to every morning! I would strongly recommend trying their breakfast. They also offered very affordable and quick laundry service, which really helped with my entire trip to Sri Lanka. Definitely recommend staying here again."

The Thinnai Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We are a family of six stayed in 2 rooms for 3 nights in July 2026. This is an excellent hotel to stay in Jaffna, and we will definitely stay here without hesitation in our next Jaffna visit. Location is safe, convenient and very close Jaffna town. The property is immaculate and well-maintained. Staff are extremely courteous, extremely helpful and professional. The assistant manager and the receptionist, Dilakshi, are very caring and always attentive. Rooms are of good size and clean. Amenities in the rooms are adequate, but could be improved (dispensers are cumbersome). The most remarkable experience we enjoyed on a daily basis was the breakfast and dinner buffet. Food was absolutely delicious, very much authentic and was the best we had during our 3 week visit to Sri Lanka. Selection of dishes were amazing and reflected the true flavours of Jaffna. The head chef, Gillion is excellent, professional, courteous and extremely caring and accommodative, so as other chefs, Vijayan, Kajayanthan and Yuvaruban. All of them made our stay and experience delightful during our Jaffna visit. We are happy that we chose to stay in The Thinnai for our Jaffna trip."
