Fox Jaffna

Its the best hotel to stay and experience in Jaffna. The rooms are really nice and very clean. The hotel has a great history and the service is very nice. We stayed at Fox Jaffna for 4 nights and loved every moment. The only short coming is the food quality. Its not that great and the vegetarian options are not good. Please work on your food taste and starters etc.

Excellent staff…Shane and Sanjeewa at reception and Andrew at the dining area…full of kindness and cooperation! Loved their caring service

Lovely hotel, beautiful warm pool, nice food, polite staff, interesting art museum, a tuk-tuk ride from Jaffna center.

We recently visited Fox Jaffna with our family and were truly impressed by every aspect of our stay. The rooms were exceptionally clean, well-appointed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The entire property was immaculate, with a serene setting that beautifully blends modern comfort with deep historical significance. As someone from the U.S. traveling with my Sri Lankan husband—who had never been to Jaffna before—this was a meaningful and eye-opening experience. The hotel is filled with relics from the war and an impressive collection of artwork by renowned Sri Lankan painters, offering a powerful and moving glimpse into the region’s past and cultural richness. The on-site restaurant served authentic local cuisine with generous portions that left us more than satisfied. Every meal felt like a celebration of Jaffna’s culinary heritage. The staff were warm, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area, offering thoughtful recommendations and insights that enhanced our visit. Fox Jaffna is more than just a hotel—it’s a cultural experience wrapped in comfort and care. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore the north of Sri Lanka with both heart and history in mind.

Had a well deserved rest and break after a arduous 8 hour drive from Colombo. Great location,interesting artwork and good food with a decent spread for breakfast. Be sure to try out the authentic Jaffna style mutton Paal Poriyal with mild spice for the faint of heart.

We were totally relaxed at the Fox Resort Jaffna as the staff was extremely friendly from the GM onwards. The rooms were really good and the Food ‘Excellent’. The General Manager also was very hospitable and looked after not only us but all the guests. Chef Pushpe’s food was really good. On arrival we were given a general Rice and Curry with a par excellent Mutton Curry, which was really tasty and excellent and then onwards whatever we ordered was the same. Our Family’s thanks to Chef. We will recommend ‘The Fox Jaffna’ to anyone who needs a Good Place to Stay with Excellent Food in Jaffna. There is enough of transport around the hotel when you need to get to places, so the distance is no issue.
