Hotel Description

In Chettinad, Visalam, a majestic mansion, was built by KVAL Ramanathan Chettiar for his daughter, Visalakshi, over a century ago. Although intended as a family home, it was only used for gatherings. Years later, it was passed down, bringing a rich legacy and restoration challenge. With care and dedication, we restored this masterpiece, selecting materials and artisans who treated Visalam as a work of art. The interior spaces were partitioned into cosy guest rooms, preserving the original essence. Today, Visalam exudes an unaltered charm, echoing the heartwarming story of a father's gift. The mansion's character remains unchanged, recalling its original inspiration. At Visalam, one of our landmark heritage properties, you can experience the spirit of the times it was built in.

Visalam's restoration was a task that required great care and skill. We approached it with diligence and pride, ensuring that the building's interiors were preserved. The result is a palpable presence of the past, where you can bear witness to an ambiance that still exudes the spirit of the times it was built in. Visalam is a testament to its glorious past, a true masterpiece of Chettinad's rich cultural heritage. Read More..
