“Central family run residence with pretty garden. Very welcoming and helpful staff.”
All the staff and Mr Haran in particular were very welcoming. They prepared a Sri Lankan breakfast for us which was a feast and we couldn't eat it all!

We had 3 great nights at Nallur Residence. Haran is a wonderful owner and host, supported by a lovely group of ladies who cooked fantastic breakfasts and evening meals. Our room was spacious with a comfy big bed. The location is ideal - near the huge Temple, Rio's ice cream parlour and a great vegetarian restaurant. A perfect stay for Jaffna.

I spent three nights at Nallur Residence and it was a great experience from the beginning to the end. The food was delicious and very authentic! Haran was very helpful, professional, welcoming and kind. He helped me to organise transportation to arrive in Jaffna, gave me food early in the morning for my day-trip to Delft, and had recommendations for visits, transportation and restaurants. On the day of my departure, he even accompanied me to the bus station to make sure I safely caught my night bus to Colombo.

“Amazing value, food & service in the heart of Nallur.”
Amazing host, literally the best. He was very accommodating, and gave us great advice. The cleaners were also exceptional. The breakfast served is perfect & really sets you up for the day. The residence is beautiful. Very well cleaned & cared-for. The mosquito nets were very appreciated, as they seemed to be prevalent during our time in Jaffna. I personally think the location of this accommodation is a 10/10 if you are visiting Jaffna for tourism. The Nallur temple is just outside, but it is still peaceful in the house despite being near the attraction.

“Amazing!”
The best accommodation we stayed at in Sri Lanka. Haran was really helpful with all matters and organised an amazing boat trip for us to visit a local fishing spot as well as a barbecue at a secret beach! One of the best day's we had here! Also you can really feel at home in the residence with some amazing breakfast and coffee! As well as cozy rooms! Would recommend 10/10!
