There was so much to like about our stay in this huge sprawling estate on a hill. Location and view superb both from our room and restaurant and pool - a place to rest after visits to temples etc. Also lots of hotel life to enjoy so not too isolated. The staff were super. Special mention to Munusamy at the pool who shared his knowledge of birds with us during the morning early walk and when sitting by the pool, plus Kim in the restaurant - nothing too much trouble and great charm. Also thanks to our polite and professional driver from the hotel for railway station journeys. Thanks all. Only pain was not allowing auto rickshaw up when coming back from the city. Means swaps and waiting around and in one case rather comically another rickshaw driver taking us up the extensive hotel road. Also as no ATM at the hotel think money and also bit of a pain getting smaller change. Apart from that all v v good.

Overall good, Tapan chef given special care, Moon deck dinner set up and food was amazing experience. Kalai Arasi Dosa counter, special Adai dosa, pirandai chutney variety of podi was excellent local taste. Peacocks. Old big trees created the feeling of being inside the forest.

Very helpful, caring and friendly staff. Absolute dining facilities, clean room with great view from the city. Television channels were occasionally on and off, but Netflix was available on the large screen TV to log into. Marvellous peacocks are wandering around the hotel grounds .

PERFECTION MEANS BEING TAKEN CARE OF AND FEEL AT HOME. GATEWAY IN MADURAI IS A PLACE WHERE LUXURY IS DOWN TO EARTH AND INDIA CAN BE EXPERIENCED NATURALLY. THE FOOD IS EXCELLENT AND THE SMALL IMPERFECTIONS ONLY REMINDED US THAT THIS IS INDIA AT ITS BEST

The checkin into this mesmerizing Taj property with the drive up to the hotel and peacocks all around was magical and seamless and were ushered into our beautiful coloniol room… We decided to head for high tea immediately at 4.30pm and were seated in the lawns sipping our tea and feeding the peacocks groundnuts provided by the hotel staff… The entire city down below with the Gopurams of the Meenakshi Temple in the background added to all its splendor. Pictures do not do justice to this fabulous hotel at all!!! which in its days of glory belonged to a Scottish textile magnet. One must read about the history of this place… The check in lobby, the rooms with its high ceilings and wooden flooring, the old cabinets all brought back the days of its lost glory!! Must say a great job is done with its restoration. The breakfast place was lovely with good service although the food could have been better.. This reminded me of my stay at Falakhnuma Palace and has all the makings of another bucket list property… We left with a very heart and that does not happen very often with me.. A few mentions here… Please do not order Ola Cabs from the airport as the drivers do not act with integrity.. Red Cabs is an app which I’m told is reliable.. All in all it was an extremely memorable stay in the hotel!!!

Like with the huge majority of the Taj hotels, this was beautiful. Great personnel, food, decorations, suite, grounds, views, pool ... as usual. Nothing to criticise. Loved the peacocks strolling about the grounds and the exceptional views of Madurai.

The property has a lot of potential for upgrades. It is an old colonial building that has been allowed to deteriorate over the years. The tennis court is neglected. Condition of the building is neglected and needs renovation. Resources appear to be limited. Garden seats are dirty. Lots of mosquitoes.The staffing is inadequate and those who are there work very hard. Food in the restaurant is average at best.
