Royal Heritage Haveli

Overlooking the haveli's cascading lawns, the Frangipani Spa offers a variety of massage styles using only organic oils from Kerala. Enjoy a dip in the lovely marble and sandstone pool or recline on the pinstripe loungers as the sweet scent of Frangipani floats by. Inside, you'll find plush furnishings and stately communal areas. The hotel has plentiful dining options including breakfast on the sunny verandah, a selection of delicious pastries in Cafe Samsara or dinner to the soft strum of a santoor - and don't forget about the well-stocked bar.

The hotel has 14 Heritage suites, which were converted from original rooms, so they can feel a little aged. All brightly coloured, the rooms have been decked out in modern decor alongside 'heritage' furniture and artwork. Amenities include a flat screen TV, mini-bar and air con. The Heritage Premium Suite comes with a private dining area, terrace and lovely hand-painted ceilings. The hotel's Signature Suite has a living room, dining area and private kitchen as well as a top-notch bathroom with a rainfall shower and deep bathtub. You can also step out into a pretty, rosy courtyard!
