Check in was quick but the room wasn’t clean with sand all over the floor. The room didn’t have any towels at all. Had to call the housekeeper at midnight to get towels. The shower took 15 minutes to have hot water running.

The welcome we received was very welcoming by all staff members. The room was very nice big and spacious and you felt you were in a entiry different hotel. The hotel needs to be maintained to a better standard then it currently is, there is wallpaper peeling off the wall the reception bathroom is not kept clean and some floors of the hotel were not clean. The restaurant is also open to the public and offer really good food. It again its not maintained well and needs to be improved to attract more visitors. We didn't use the pool as when we found where it was it didn't look too clean either I'm affriad to say. Appreciate that it may not of been peak season for them but the hotel was full and the cleanliness must be maintained

Wifi is a bit of a hassle. The main building looks nice, but the budget rooms are in a separate building that is more of a 2 star feeling (old looking furniture, no hot water the first night, view of parking lot). The pool is nothing special / near the other hotel restaurant/bar so not relaxing. Service was very friendly but not very efficient (eg slow check in, or when reserving a scooter rental for 7am the next morning but when i arrived at the front desk to pick it up, there was no scooter, confused staff, took 30 mins to get the scooter and when it arrived it was old and gas tank at empty). Lobby and front patio was nice and location near train station is good.

Decent hotel near Jaffna town. Some items in the room didn't work properly. toilet flush was one issue. There is smell in the bathroom which could be due to an issue with the plumping. Wireless connection was also not straight forward.

This hotel is well located, adjacent to Jaffna railway station and walking distance to the town and fort. It also has a good reasonably priced restaurant with good breakfast. A significant problem is that their 'standard' rooms are not actually in the main building and are definitely substandard and about 1 star whereas the 'deluxe' rooms are 3 star or better. I was able to sort this out, but these standard rooms should not be offered on their website as being part of the Valampuri hotel, as travellers will just assume a level of comfort which does not apply. This is a significant problem at check in - but unfortunately only when the room has been visited - when a nonrefundable rate is chosen.
