Great property. Rooms very comfortable. Thank goodness for the pool - it provided a welcome relief from the heat. Breakfast very substantial and delicious. Staff were extremely helpful and welcoming.

Staff are friendly and always trying hard to make sure we have good stay. Atmosphere is nice with only 4 rooms in the whole hotel. Room AC is strong and nice, which is quite important in Jaffna.

One of the best accommodations we've had in Sri Lanka! Super friendly staff! 😊🙏

Comfortable room with aircon that worked well. Very helpful manager and staff. Not pushy at all but arranged anything and everything we requested brilliantly and gave us the best recommendations for how to get around, where to eat and what to see. They made Jaffna a great experience. The pool was especially nice to come home to too after a long hot day of sightseeing.

A great place to stay. Very pleasant and helpful staff. We were helped with day trips which were very enjoyable. Tasty breakfasts. The building itself was lovely in the traditional Jaffna style. Would stay again.

This historic 4 room villa has been beautifully renovated and is a quiet oasis in a busy city. Its location is also very good, being a 20-30 minute walk to the fort, the Jaffna library, central markets and the impressive Nallur Kovil. The pool is lovely for a refreshing dip and downtime after a busy day sightseeing. Madhu, Sutha and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Thambu Illam.

Gorgeous boutique hotel. Such a calm, welcoming space. The pool was wonderful to cool down in. Staff were exceptional- friendliest we’ve meet in Sri Lanka. Rooms had high ceilings, polished concrete floors. Breakfast were scrumptious. The staff were 10/10!!!! Recommend this place to all who appreciate good things and great service

A quiet oasis in a busy city. A small 4 room villa. It was the staff who made this place a delight. Nothing was too much trouble. There is not a restaurant on site but it wasn’t a problem as the staff will arrange for dinner to be brought in. An excellent breakfast is prepared on site. Thank you to all the staff

The Property was impeccably maintained and situated in close proximity to Nallur Kovil and Jaffna Markets. Sudha, Neranjan, and Madhu, the hosts, offered valuable assistance in our travel arrangements and shared insightful tips. Additionally, the food was amazing.
