We had a great time at Allen’s Homestay! He is very friendly and gave a lot of tips for things to do around Jaffna. He also helped us a lot to get in touch with local mechanics when we had some issues with our tuktuk.
The rooms are nice and clean, and the porch with view of the garden is great!

The young couple hosts were so friendly and helpful. They invited us to the Hindu festival which was amazing experience. The house is beautiful and very spacious and clean. The living areas are shared but with no one else booked in we enjoyed it alone. Very good air conditioned living area and great kitchen with all you need. Would definitely stay here again.

They didn't serve breakfast. However, offered to make tea for us and the shared kitchen had a water heater to make our own tea. Location was 1.5Km away from railway station. Finding food was tough around this area. Rio ice cream parlor was in walking distance (700m) that was something and Nallur Kovil also 500m away.

The location is conveniently close to Jaffna town, making it easy to explore the area. The property is clean and well-maintained, providing all the necessary facilities.
Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
Tony is a great host! He was very helpful, friendly and nice to chat with. He arranged for me a tour of Jaffna peninsula and helped with other travel arrangements. In the guest house there are whiteboards with lots of useful info for travellers such as train and bus schedules. Breakfast (a la carte) had a lot of options to choose from. Overall basic guest house but with great vibe and services.
Haran the host was the most helpful we have met. He arranged everything from tours, places to visit and where the best food places to eat. When asked about where to eat out on our final night, he decided to cook us a meal and it was delicious. Breakfasts were outstanding each morning with fresh fruit and home cooked Sri Lankan Jaffna tucker.
Berty and his wife are charming hosts and nothing is too much trouble for them. Their cooking is absolutely delicious - a delight to get enjoyed. The rooms are spacious and very clean. I had left my medicines in Colombo and Berty took me I to the pharmacy to have the replaced.
Their ho e is situated in a very quiet area and you wake to the sound of a variety of birds.
A very enjoyable and comfortable stay and I will definitely stay there again when I next return to Jaffna
The house is down a quiet cul-de-sac, with a leafy garden and outside patio. Our room was large, with good size comfortable double bed. Air con, plus fan, plus mosquito net over bed. Plenty of sockets and good wifi. A lounge area with T.V. and dining area. Excellent delicious substantial breakfast. Allen was an extremely charming and helpful host, always willing to answer our questions, phone transport etc.
Our stay at Allens home stay was very unique! Allen knows everything about Jaffna and its surroundings and will help you in any way to make your trip up north a special one.
His garden is beautiful and quiet. The guesthouse is a 20 minute walk from the buisy city centre.
We felt completely at home during our stay. Allen is a very warm and welcoming person.
Breakfast was fantastic, Allen even made a food package when we had to catch an early train.
The only hostel in Jaffna for backpackers. Great location in the heart of the city center and within walking distance from train or bus stand. The dorm room was quite big and spacious making the stay comfortable. Each bed even had its own fan.
Met some lovely people here and had a good time exploring the city. The hostel features a kitchen where you can cook if you want.
lovely house with even lovelier host …. Allen is excellent so knowledgeable about the area, great company and worldly wise …. Even popped out and got us some beers for a well deserved drink after a hard day’s sightseeing… great location on a very quiet street within 5min walk of the main temple …. Breakfast is amazing home cooked and locally sourced ingredients (some picked from his own garden - 3 types of bananas )and will taylor to your tastes…
Haran is an awesome host! Very thoughtful, always helpful, generous with tea and coffee :) and generally a great guy. It was quiet, clean and in a great location.
