10/10 Excellent
"Located in Kochadai, in the heart of Madurai, the hotel’s campus is remarkably calm and serene which is an ideal setting for a family outing. The rooms were spacious, with Chettinad heritage touches woven throughout. Staff were extremely helpful and responsive; when we asked to swap our third bed for a double bed stacked on top, they arranged it immediately. The plunge pool in each room was a real highlight, and the kids loved it. On top of that, the main temple pool was well maintained and kept at a safe depth of 4 feet—perfect for children. The buffet breakfast had lot of variety and we loved the masala omelette. Highly recommend!!"
