Sri Lanka
Negombo
This magnificent house has stood for 180 years and has been carefully extended over time by renowned Sri Lankan artists. Pillared verandas, delicate woodwork, graceful arches and a traditional courtyard recall a bygone era, while contemporary comforts and a striking swimming pool bring a touch of modern sophistication. Whether you are a history enthusiast or in search of a quiet retreat, this Negombo hotel is the ideal starting or closing point for your journey through Sri Lanka.
Discreet, personalised service is a hallmark of the Uga brand, and the Riva's team welcomes guests like longstanding friends. During the day, guests often gather by the pool, relax around the house, or retreat to their room or suite, settling in before or after a long-haul flight.
The talented chefs prepare nutritious, flavourful dishes to be enjoyed in the house or in the serene tropical garden.
This luxurious hotel features seven individually designed rooms set within a magnificent 19th-century wallawwa (manor house).
Defined by their unique layout, original features and garden views, these rooms are conducive to rest and relaxation, and are perfect before or after a long-haul flight.
Restored period furniture and contemporary Sri Lankan art lend a strong sense of place, while the rooms offer luxurious comfort alongside every modern amenity. Welcoming couples, honeymooners and families alike, the house can also be booked for exclusive use.
