Heritage Madurai, Madurai

Heritage Madurai (previously Heritance Madurai) is a seamless blend of traditional elegance and modern comfort. Set among 17 acres of lush green gardens, Heritage Madurai has 35 villas. The original Madurai Coats Club from the time of the British Raj, this property has not lost its British flavour. After extensive refurbishment it was completely restored in keeping with the traditional architecture of the town. The rooms are spacious, tastefully furnished and designed to meet the demands of discerning travellers. All the 35 villas come with plunge pools and resemble traditional village houses. The 18th-century columns and antique doors from the Chettinad district give the hotel a distinctive character. There are two restaurants serving Indian and continental delicacies, a bar and a swimming pool designed to replicate a temple tank.
