Simple but beautiful hotel, with a great relaxing atmosphere and wonderful staff. We arrived really late from the flight and waited for us and welcomed us in, the rooms were clean and spacious and the infinity pool was just amazing. The grounds are so well taken care of and we enjoyed a stroll alongside the river and the beautiful gardens of the hotel, breakfast was simple but fresh and we enjoyed it very much. The staff was so thoughtful and nice towards us and the kids and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely stay here again.

It’s a little bit away from the city (15 min by car), but we choosed it to be like that to be away from the noise and confusion of the city. Come to Sri Lanka! We felt always safe.

Looking for a five-star hotel?

When the accommodation is just as important as the destination, a five-star stay should give that extra ‘wow’ factor as you enter the lobby. As well as offering the kind of service to make you feel like royalty, you’ll usually find highly rated on-site spas, gourmet restaurants and top-of-the-line beds you won’t want to get out of.

    Uga Riva is exquisite. A beautifully presented immaculate Sri Lankan boutique hotel with luxurious rooms, wonderful pool and beautiful gardens. Food is prepared to order by the chef and is delicious. The whole team working at the hotel made our stay the best we’ve had in our two trips to Sri Lanka. If you’re arriving at Colombo international airport and need a local stay please book in here (less than half an hour by taxi) but be warned- you may not want to leave….
