The resort was beautiful. Room was clean and very modern. Only thing is on the weekends there are some wedding photo shoots only in the morning time. They don't bother anyone but it's just a minor inconvenience. The pool was a huge plus, it was really nice and always warm. Not sure if it's heated or not but it sure felt like it.

Loved meeting the Tamil locals working at Fox Jaffna especially those from my home town of Alaveddy. The Appam station for breakfast on the last day and the Odiyal Kool were definitely highlights.

My stay at Fox Jaffna was excellent. The staff were excellent and extremely accomodating. The highlight for me was the incredible food from the restaurant. This is the only place worth staying at in Jaffna if you would like a real local relaxing experience. Thank you to all the team at Jaffna and hope to see you all again in the future.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
This hotel has been given its reputation purely due to a lack of adequate competition in Jaffna. The rooms and bathrooms are clean, modern and the grounds are well kept, but that's where the positives stop. The hospitality is either not present or forced, not a resemblance of true Tamil heritage. The breakfast buffet was mediocre at best, for the price paid to have such a limited selection; one juice, water flavoured coffee, stale bread, we decided it was best to spend our money elsewhere. The outdoor dining seems nice at first, until stray cats and dogs are let free to roam the area. During our dining experience, a neighbouring table got up to take photos and a stray cat managed to mount the table and dig in to their food, simply watched by onlooking waiting staff. It is also sad to see that the food served has been dulled down to cater for Western guests, rather than highlighting the true flavours of Jaffna Tamil cuisine. We ended up dining at the Thinnai and Gatetrees instead which served unbelievable food with memorable, kind, Tamil hospitality. I'll be staying elsewhere next time.

Love your fabulous shower fixtures! Staff were very helpful and obliging, range of food was great! The whole ambience and the cultural and artistic aspects that have been brought in are excellent! The bunkers especially the museum were a brilliant idea and highly appreciate the space given to local painters. Suggest adding more artifacts for the museum.

Good place to stay

The breakfast buffet wasn't good at all, very limited options and nothing really to look forward to. But the staff, the hotel was fabulous! - special kudos to Scotty who went above and beyond to organise some food for us...

We visited after 40 years to Srilanka. We are glad that we stayed at fox resort Jaffna. Beautiful property in Jaffna. We truly appreciate all the staff. Well maintained property with clean pool. Food was delicious, Amit kumar, Scootie and sugith was very helpful. We felt like we were at our own house in Jaffna. Thank you to all of you.

Friendly and supportive staff

Booking was easier and Laksika from front desk was very welcoming and supportive. Stayed in two different type rooms, one in villa and other in main building. Supplies , cleanliness and service was great. Restaurant was more welcoming and and warm. Food choices were not extensive but adequate to the size of resort. Scotty, Diroian, Amithap were very friendly and quick to be in service, cheers to them.

The property is very nicely maintained. Pool is small but clean. I stayed at the Classic room which was in the original house. Room was big but unfortunately very dark. Windows don't open. Otherwise, the room has everything. Good tea bags. The food at the hotel was good but they charge a lot of money for tax and service fee. That could be avoided. Food was tasty. Breakfast was simple but same thing every day. I recommend a variety and more Sri Lankan choices since this is a heritage hotel. The hotel is a little too pricey for Jaffna standards since it is of 3 star quality. It is also a little too far from town and train station. Otherwise, it is very comfortable and safe for ladies traveling alone.
