Uga Residence<\/h1>\r\n

This Victorian townhouse once welcomed governors, maharajas, nobility, and the cream of Ceylon\u2019s colonial society.<\/h5>\r\n

Built back in the 19th century, Uga Residence is today a charming eleven suite luxury boutique hotel in Colombo.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Built by a wealthy barrister named Sheikh Salehboy Moosajee, its then quaint atmosphere and ambience still holds true, offering a sense of seclusion and tranquility in its suites. Its appointments are elegant, contemporary, and comfortable. Yet its rich history resonates in its spacious, leafy gardens and private courtyards, Uga Residence is a great choice for long or short stays in Colombo. The hotel is owned and managed by Uga Escapes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”100″ class=”image-conetent-block”][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_class=”left-image”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”8548″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]\r\n

Why do we love Uga Residence?<\/h2>\r\nIt has so much we could talk about!
