Top St Jame's Church Hotel Reviews

Jetwing Jaffna

8/10 Good

"Good food. Staff were super helpful and friendly and did their best to make you feel welcome. The housekeeping facilities including next day laundry service was good. The bathrooms had showers but they weren’t seal proof so the water kept leaking and coming into the main bathroom area. This is a design flaw. The balcony and the view of Jaffna from there is beautiful. The hotel location is central so it’s quite noisy. If you’re not an early riser, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel as there are some prayers every day at 7.30am from a nearby school via a loudspeaker. There is also no accommodation for drivers (other Jaffna hotels offer this)."

The Thinnai Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was ckean and spacious. The were very helpful and polite. Breakfast was good. They could add a few more options for the breakfast and dinner."

Yals town inn

8/10 Good

"Spacious rooms, clean but still recommend wearing slippers in bathroom. thin walls so noise from common areas is very loud."

Subhas Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room Subhas hotel gave us didn't have phone (internal use to call reception) and fridge. We had to keep food outside, so many ants 🐜 came and other tiny insects on table. Had to throw all food. Staff very helpful. Generally very good location to go Super Markets, Jaffna New Market , Bus stand , Railway station. If they improve cleanliness it's better."

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."
