Facing the seafront in Delft East, Delft Village stay has free bikes and a garden. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. The homestay features garden views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk. Cozy, nice and creative concept. Very flexible and attentive. For a remote island like Delft this is an excellent facility.

Located within 1.3 km of Jaffna Railway Station and 2 km of Nallur Kandaswamy Temple in Jaffna, Tony's Garden House Back Packers inn offers accommodation with seating area and a kitchenette. Featuring a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. The guest house also provides free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Amazing all around. Tony was very responsive before my arrival, super friendly, and has all the info. The house is in a great location, I had a room facing the street and it never bothered me (and I'm actually a light sleeper). The room was cozy and I enjoyed the balcony (especially the kettle lol). Highly recommend staying here and I will definitely visit Jaffna again and stay at Tony's!

Allens home stay, a property with a terrace, is set in Jaffna, 600 metres from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, 1.5 km from Jaffna Railway Station, as well as 2.6 km from Jaffna Public Library. The property is around 3.1 km from Jaffna Fort, 14 km from Nilavarai Well and 20 km from Naguleswaram Temple. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Allen's place is a little oasis in the middle of Jaffna. We loved our stay! The room and bed are very comfortable and the breakfast made fresh every morning by Allen himself. There is a warm shower and the garden great to read a book. I'll come back longer next time!

With a private bathroom, units at the homestay also have free WiFi, while certain rooms also offer a balcony. At the homestay, some units are fitted with a kettle and fruits.

For guests with children, the homestay features a baby safety gate. Both a bicycle rental service and a car rental service are available at Munril Guest, while walking tours can be enjoyed nearby. Absolutely lovely stay at Munril Guest! The rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with both air conditioning and a fan. The villa itself is beautiful, with a peaceful and green setting just a few minutes by tuk-tuk from the city center, a perfect balance of quiet and convenience. The facilities are excellent, but what really stands out is the incredible friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts. They even offered free rides to local sights, which was a wonderful bonus. Breakfast was also delicious and well-prepared. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Jaffna!

Offering a garden and garden view, Malabar home stay is situated in Jaffna, 3.2 km from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple and 3.5 km from Jaffna Railway Station. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. Free private parking is available and the homestay also features bike hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area. The hosts are incredibly kind. Adi let me store my bags at the homestay after I checked out, and even to take a shower when I came back to pick them up, which was lovely and meant that I could enjoy water activities such as the Keerimalai bath and the beach. Definitely get the breakfast (you can add it on once you're there). It's delicious and excellent value. The property is cute, with a pond built into the front walk (with fish you can look at 😍), an interior courtyard, and my room had an attached outdoor bathroom (with a roof and walls) that let in light while giving privacy, so I felt like I was in a private garden for my shower.

Nallur Holidays Inn in Jaffna provides adults-only accommodation with an open-air bath and a shared lounge. This guest house features free private parking, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, full-day security and luggage storage for guests. Miss. Iniyal, the manager, greeted me with a smile and made sure that I got what I actually wanted to get, I mean basically anything which does not necessarily have to be related to the hotel stay. She also was doing house-keeping where she made sure that the room was spotlessly clean. The boss of the place, Mr. Thilak was also kind and managed the place well.
