Fox Jaffna

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.

The Staff and Manager especially the two Shanes were superb! The good was good and the garden ambience heavenly. The Hotel has a story and a history!.

It was a wonderful stay at Fox. I love how the original house is kept intact with modern amenities. The bunkers were the highlight together with the stories behind it. The meals were simple but delicious. Scottie and Agilan was simply great, they were so accommodating in whatever we asked for the kids and us. The therapist for the massage was ideal, it so happened that I got late by around 10-15 mins but he was very calm and a superb massage it was. The swing was a hit for the kids, they simply loved it. Will we stay here again of course we will. We loved being here!!!

Had 3 wonderful days in Jaffna and the Fox Resort made this location a memorable one! Lovely friendly staff throughout who can’t do enough for you. Set in lovely manicured gardens with a lovely pool area to relax in. The food was truly amazing and was so carefully prepared it was exceptional in every way!

This resort is a gem in the heart of the city! Its prime location makes it incredibly convenient for exploring. The breakfast is absolutely stunning, and both lunch and dinner are equally delightful. I couldn't have enjoyed my stay more!

Fantastic service scoty provided an absolutely amazing service and looked after us very well. We will definitely come back again
