Lotus Colombon is situated at the border of Colombo 5 and 7, which is the elite residential area of Colombo with wide paths lined with huge grand trees, parks and open spaces, which is also a foodie heaven due to the 15 restaurants surrounding lotus within 50 metres. We have opened our next property Lotus heritage Homagama in april 2019 which is a less urban location 22km away from Colombo, set amid lush paddy fields and temples and is part of an ancient village. Lotus Heritage enjoys a very large garden with over 120 tropical plants and flowers and is easily accessible by road or train. from Homagama, one can take the highway to down south and enjoy our beautiful southern beaches in Galle and beyond in 45 minutes or less and from end of 2019, take the highway up to kandy and enjoy the cool climate of the hills. We were closed for some time due to pandemic and ensuing economic issues. Now we are very pleased to offer a even a more luxurious guest experience with all new upgrades. We have also opened our heritage Villa, Lotus Heritage Galle near Historic Galle fort, and we welcome for you to enjoy our beautiful country!
