Excellent service and lovely property

The features, history, staff, courtyard area, bed and food all very good - thank you for a good stay!

Had to swap rooms from a twin to a double on check in, even though I had requested a double in advance but easily rectified

We love everything about this icon of Mysore, a delightful jewel in a famously lovely state. We loved the high Raj-era ceilings and thick (heat-defying) walls of the ground-floor suite (a special treat), which was spacious, decorated in gorgeous period furniture and lighting fixtures, including a claw-footed bathtub with shower, and had a lovely outdoor patio looking out over their lovely, well-manicured gardens. The food is unbelievably and reliably excellent. (I will love Mysore festival rice the rest of my days.) The service is efficient, warm, and courteous. No surprise, then, that this venerable hotel of traditional South Indian grace is much-beloved by locals, for whom it is a special-occasion breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner and special-occasion venue. A must-stay if you can afford it without western-style expectations, and just enjoy what unfolds around you, which is the magic of India.

wonderful breakfast buffet with lots of choices and live sax music on the patio. Evening patio dining setting was lovely

Food was still too spicy, though we asked for "low, low spice"! A common problem in South India.

Great location, at city centre. Quick service Clean and tidy rooms Big balconies

Food could have been better

Beautiful heritage hotel with kind and helpful staff in the heart of Mysore. I enjoyed the private balcony overlooking the garden en the daily life music during breakfast.
