Four bedrooms in this beautiful home. There is a very beautiful pool and the food is out of this world. It is more of a showroom type home than Hotel. It is extremely quiet and it is more or less sold out in the summer, but I am so lucky to have stayed here.

My family and friends from Canada and the UK stay together at this property almost every year when we visit Jaffna. It has a great location, is super clean, and the staff are wonderful! Best of the best of the chef - she’s an incredible cook. Would definitely recommend.

Beautifully restored 1935 bungalow with 4 rooms, good pool, centrally located on relatively quiet street. The staff were terrific - Juckshan the villa manager, Janaka the butler and Megala the cook. Food was great, butler service formidable, and all staff including Jetwing GM Nilanthi made is feel very much at home.

It’s a beautifully furnished villa in a quiet residential area that has only 4 bedrooms. Our stay felt like staying in our own luxury bungalow with full butler service and a fabulous in-house cook. There’s a full service kitchen and you can opt to have all your meals there. We discussed and our meals were customised for a full Jaffna Tamil culinary experience, with one meal that included the famous Jaffna crab curry. Breakfasts were also feasts of their own and we could hardly walk after stuffing ourselves. Our stay of two nights felt too short. Special thanks to team Juckshan, Janaka, Megala and Ramesh for an unforgettable stay!

We enjoyed three busy days in Jaffna with the highlight being this hotel and its staff. A lovely old building, immaculately kept, comfortable rooms, and a peaceful pool all in the heart of the city. The wonderful team (Nilanthi, Megala and Janaka) made every effort to ensure we had everything we wanted, gave us advice, and prepared fantastic meals for us. They made us feel both welcome and special, because of them a good hotel was made exceptional.

Mahesabhawan is a beutiful , tastefully furnished, villa. We stayed for three nights. The staff and service was very good. Food was very good too. The caretaker, Mr.Juckshan was very helpful and Janaka gave an excellent service. I like the ornaments and wall hangings which blended with the culture appropriately

Staying at Mahesa Bhawan is more like staying at a family member’s or close friend’s home, such is the genuinely warm and welcoming service provided by Juckshan and Janata with delectable food expertly prepared by Merkela, all under the watchful but no less welcoming eye of Nilanthi the GM.
