The property is amazing but they are ruining the “TAJ”name . The first room they gave us had horrible sewer back up smell and musty odor that made me gag and cough all night and next day we requested a change of room and they did change it which is good but it should not come to that . There was “hair “ in the food. The server had such horrible body odors and sweat smell which was over powering the smell of the food they were serving

Stay with the nature
The over all property was very good. Big sized room. Lovely location, beautiful surroundings. Lots and lots of peacocks offering a wonderful sight as well as lots of photo taking opportunities. However, the bathroom and its fittings were outdated and badly need renovation.

Perfect place of peace away from the noise and dust of Madurai, yet close enough to access everything in town. Great views of the town from the hotel alongside a diversity of birds, trees and natural life. Staff are the best at all levels. We loved all of it.

Property is very beautiful and peaceful but rooms are not great very spacious room but not clean bathrooms need renovation. I will not recommend this hotel for elderly people who can’t use stairs because lots of claiming My best impression is all the staffs very pleasant and courteous. Especially Mr. Pandian one of the excellent person who helped us lot my special thanks to him. I will give 5 stars to staffs but management needs to take care of this property. Also please make sure when you hire employees they must speak Tamil In Madurai employees don’t know Tamil? 🤔

Madurai’s hidden gem
As always a memorable stay made possible by a professional team headed by a GM who leaves no stone unturned to ensure that each guest feels like he is returning home. The renovations that are taking shape are changing the character of the hotel by modernising it but retaining the heritage aspect of the property.
