“There is this Gorgeous Restaurant in 3rd floor. We had biriyani and it was simply fantastic. Authentic food with excellent flavors. We had a fantastic time. Keep up the standards. Highly recommended.”
“Nelly Star Hotel & Restaurant A very good place for refreshments during a long drive from Batticaloa to Jaffna or Colombo to Jaffna. The interior design is nice and well maintained. I think the hotel has been opened only a few months ago, and everything still looks fresh and clean. The food tastes good and is well prepared. The washrooms are very clean and well maintained, which is very important for travelers. Overall, a comfortable stop for drivers and families. Highly recommended.”
