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!

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. I had a really great stay at Nallur Holidays Inn. The location couldn’t be better : a short walk to Nallur Temple and with plenty of good places to eat. Most of jaffna's town attractions are within a short tuk tuk drive (250-300 LKR). What really made the stay special was Shanu, who works at the reception. She was incredibly friendly, always checking if I was comfortable, and even made amazing tea and coffee. I loved how open and friendly she was, and how she shared little bits of local culture and everyday life. It added a very human, personal touch to the whole experience. The family who runs the place is also very warm and always available if you need anything. The atmosphere was lively during my stay, with lots of travellers from different places. There was an easy, relaxed social vibe in the evenings and random moments throughout the day, which made it feel even more welcoming. They also offer laundry service and breakfast, both very convenient when you’re on the move. All in all, a lovely place — I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in Jaffna.
