Saratha Vilas Chettinad Palace Hotel is a 10-bedroom heritage boutique hotel in the heart of Chettinad in South India. Open since 2010, the property’s restoration was completed by French architects. Saratha Vilas is one of the most beautiful palatial homes among the 10,000 to 15,000 mansions built by the Chettiar community of Hindu bankers and merchants between 1850 and 1950 in southern Tamil Nadu.
All guest accommodation is located within the palace. The historical hotel and its ensuite rooms are decorated with a blend of heritage and design collections and are fully equipped with all the modern amenities. Saratha Vilas offers the famous Chettinad cuisine as well as mediterranean inspired dishes served in indoor and outdoor dining areas. A lush back garden features a custom designed swimming pool. No stay is complete without a massage in the spa or a Chettinad cooking lesson in our teaching kitchen. The in-house boutique offers a curated collection of handmade garments, jewelry, and antique collectibles from the region and across India.
