Fox Jaffna anmeldelser

This is one of the best options to stay in Jaffna. It’s not in the city centre, more on the outskirts of the city , there’s nothing around, so you basically plan your time in the resort. The hotel itself is nice , the rooms look a bit old but clean , there was no hot water in our room. The territory of the hotel is beautiful with the pool , restaurant, little museums to visit (ex bunkers). The food in the restaurant is yummy , the staff is friendly and polite, especially Scotty , he was very helpful and nice to us during our stay. Good experience at this hotel, just the water situation in the rooms should be improved.

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.

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!

Stayed in this hotel as part of our honeymoon, and we absolutely loved this place. I am a British Tamil and my wife is Portuguese, this was her first visit to Jaffna ,and my 3rd. Jaffna has changed a lot since the end of the war- thank God l, and you can see how it is improving slowly. This hotel is evidence of this and just loved the customer service, food and everything they could offer such as the Jaffna crab curry cooking demo and the tunnels below showcasing the LTTE and an art exhibition. Can't recommend this hotel enough if your staying in Jaffna, the food is great and the staff have impeccable customer service.

Renovated ancestral mansion located away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Beautifully designed with a touch of old charm and modern luxury. Well kept picturesque garden. We booked a heritage room which opens to the front courtyard. Spacious and comfortable room with necessary amenities. There was no shower cubicle and water splashes everywhere. Staff was kind enough to provide us with extra floor mats. Better to fix the problem permanently. Buffet was not that great and didn’t have much variety or authentic Jaffna food. Exceptional services by the restaurant staff. Apologies for not remembering their names. Highlight was the opportunity to visit traditional bunkers with impressive art work. Worth a visit. Even after three days, we were not able to use the pool or relax in nature due to heavy rain. Delightful stay but couldn’t enjoy it fully. Look forward to staying again ! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Fox Jaffna to anyone visiting the area.

The place itself has a very warm and welcoming vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. A special thanks to Trevin and Amith for going above and beyond. The food was delicious, reasonably priced, and definitely a 10/10!

Comfortable room with view of the pool. Very peaceful in the middle of a busy town. Great to cool off in the pool after seeing the sights. Highlight of our stay was our curry cooking lesson from our patient chef, great fun & very tasty. I would high Recommend this gem of a hotel.

I stayed a few nights at the resort. It is close to the main road so reaching it is easy. The room was cozy with a rustic look and all the amenities available. The breakfast buffet is great (love the warm milk they provide for tea/coffee) and I also enjoyed a late lunch in the traditional style. Their gardens are lovely. Above all, their service was fantastic. I had invited some friends for breakfast and the staff went above and beyond to ensure they had a great time. Thank you.

The team is so well prepared, very attentive , and always helpful. Unbelievable service . All areas from security guard,reception , house keeping , and the restaurant and kitchen staff were always there for anything . This is our 6th visit and will always come back as it’s like our second home . Food is great as well . But it’s the attentive service that stands out and it’s also very discreetly done . Thanks for a super stay

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!.

We stayed at Fox Resort for three days and had a wonderful experience. The staff provided exceptional hospitality—everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. If you're visiting Jaffna, this is undoubtedly one of the best places to stay. Highly recommended.

One of the best places to stay in Jaffna. Superb food and we had great service from Amith and Agilan as well as Chef Pushpe. Beautiful landscaped garden and a great art gallery.
