Lovely boutique hotel in a central Jaffna location. We were the only guests staying at the time so had the whole property to ourselves, and the staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. Breakfast and dinner were delicious and the pool was great.

Spacious and comfortable rooms, very nice common areas. Haran is the best host we have ever had, not only in Sri Lanka. Thanks to his advice our visit to Jaffna was perfect. He also helped us find the best solution for our return to Colombo by personally accompanying us to catch the night bus. The dinner at Nallur was the best in Sri Lanka.

Lone Star Residence is newly built and furnished to exceptionally high standards. It is an inviting, spacious, hospitable place to stay with excellent facilities - kitchen especially but in truth, all rooms. Location - 15 mins taxi Palaly Int Airport; 5 mins drive Inuvil railway station; 10/15 mins drive Jaffna; 5 mins drive Chunnakam. The actual physical location is attractive in its serenity. Its located in a quiet lane on Manipay Road overlooking agricultural land owned/rented by smallholders. Noise and external interference is absolutely minimal.

The property is superbly put together. The lay out is really lovely with all the bedrooms ensuite and it is the first time that in our travel in Srilanka that we found a property with a lift, it is very convenient for elderly people. It was really confortable.

I booked a homestay through Booking.com and had the most heartwarming experience staying there with my dad. From the moment we arrived, we felt like part of the family. The host, his wife, and their only son were incredibly kind and welcoming. They even cooked us a lovely meal, which made the stay feel even more special. The place was spotlessly clean, peaceful, and full of warmth. We never felt like guests—we felt like we were at home. Their kindness truly made our trip memorable. I still find myself missing the place and the people. I’m so grateful for this stay and would absolutely return. Thank you to Booking.com for helping us find such a gem.

I had a wonderful stay here. The location is very central, making it easy to get around Jaffna. Despite being in the city, it's a peaceful and quiet place to relax. The rooms are equipped with good air conditioning and nice showers. There are both ground and upper floor options available. Every morning, you can choose the type of breakfast you prefer, and the breakfast itself is tasty and fresh. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. I also had the chance to meet the owner we had some great conversations. You can really feel the passion behind this place, and it shows in the care and attention given to guests. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Jaffna!
