    A nice, small boutique hotel in Jaffna if you are looking for convenience and value for money.

    The room was somewhat small for double occupancy. I later discovered that there were more spacious rooms available, but not allocated to us .

    The breakfast, included in the room charge, was very good. We stayed for eight days and every day, the Chef Ruban served us a different menu. All freshly made Tamil cuisine. Loved it. The Manager Ravi is very helpful and was always available with useful information. The location is also good.Very close to KKS Road where there were many small eateries and shops. Excellent location for public transport. The Maruthanarmadam Public market is closeby where you could buy many kinds of fresh local fruits.

    We received a warm welcome, truly capturing the Sri Lankan spirit. Ravi made us feel at home, being very attentive and even let us use the kitchen as needed. Ruben, the chef, made mouthwatering dishes which all of us thoroughly enjoyed and it is a difficult feat to please all 5 of us! It was such a convenient and peaceful location. I would highly recommend!

    Great location, just off the road making it very peaceful at night. Good air con and fan. Great size room with balcony overlooking the garden and plantation. Good host and Sri Lankan breakfast. They also do laundry, which was a god sent in a city with no laundrettes.

    Just needs newspaper in the closet to lay down clothes. Otherwise everything was amazing.

    The host Ravi was very welcoming and helpful. The room was very comfortable. The food was excellent. The chef treated us so well we put on a few extra pounds. We felt so well rested and relaxed and pampered. We felt like we had visited with old friends. Ravi Sir also guided us to the nearby sights and gave us the use of his bike. Will definitely be coming back to stay here. U can rest assured u r in good hands.

    We stayed in a beautiful spacious room with a balcony overlooking the pretty gardens. The fan and aircon were really effective. The bathroom was great with hot water! Everything was spotlessly clean! The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, helpful with local information and arranging transport into central Jaffna. The sri lankan breakfast was delicious and very big! We would highly recommend Dayanithi guest house!
