Heritage - Madurai
|
Welcome to Heritage, welcome
to Madurai.
A resort, one hundred years
in the making, in the heart
of a city that grew from
drops of nectar that flowed
from the locks of Shiva, as
legend would have us
believe.
From not so simple
beginnings Heritage Madurai
rings with historic charm
that echoes in every hallway
and every room. Lounge by
the Olympic-sized temple
tank pool, or luxuriate in a
plunge pool in your own
private villa. Dine under a
200 year old banyan tree,
serenaded by bird calls
while enjoying the perfect
meal prepared by your own
personal chef, perfectly
tempered to your particular
taste buds. Take a leisurely
‘historic’ walk through the
corridors where every stone
has a story to tell. There
is more to Heritage Madurai. |
Accommodation:
Spacious, airy rooms with
detailed sitting areas,
luxurious bedrooms and
unbelievably vast bathrooms,
all decorated with
understated elegance.
Cleverly transformed light
fittings delight you at
every turn: a riveting piece
that once was a lantern;
another, a carriage light ;
an old diya in new avatar,
and the piece de resistance:
a sun deck in each villa,
that opens out into your own
private plunge pool.
Luxury Villas
A throwback to a bygone era,
wood and granite flooring
are tastefully combined with
elegant furniture and modern
facilities, wrapping you and
your loved ones in a blanket
of luxury. Turn your back on
the outside world and gaze
at your own personal
courtyard where blossom
laden frangipani trees stand
guard over your personal
plunge pool. A surprisingly
spacious facility that
offers a refreshing and
novel experience.
Deluxe Club
Where can you chance upon a
welcoming space that is more
suggestive of a suite? These
spacious rooms have a light
and airy ambience yet cosset
you in lavish comfort.
Dining:
What makes Heritage Madurai especially distinctive is the personal
attention you receive in every aspect of your stay. In tune with
the tradition of south Indian hospitality, a host of attentive
staff cater to your every whim.

The banyan Restaurant:

banyan trees, it is perfect for every occasion. Be it a corporate
lunch, a family get-together, or even a romantic evening the Banyan
team will ensure they accommodate and attend to your every need.
The restaurant serves both contemporary Indian and International
cuisine, with a special emphasis on using local produce.
Swig & Tee' Bar:
The 'Swig & Tee' bar epitomizes the colonial club culture of
British Madurai. One section of the bar is part of the main
clubhouse building of the 1970's, while the new extension features
a contemporary bar counter. Situated adjacent to one of the oldest
Banyan trees of the resort, the bar is an ideal place to enjoy a
sundowner. Just ask the barman for the Heritage Special !

The Coffee Shop is a part of the original building designed by the
architect Geoffrey Bawa. The location features alfresco dining and
not only serves breakfast, but also a tempting array of fresh
sandwiches, cookies, snacks, pastries and chocolates. Renowned for
fine aromatic coffees and teas , the coffee shop also serves some
deliciously cold mixers. |
