Outstanding experience

Posted Mar. 1, 2021 on Hotels
Visalam is not a hotel, but a home. It reflected in every little thing at this place. The service was outstanding and Malaisamy really takes care of the guests’ dining needs with care and constant attention. The largest King size bed ever, the high ceilings and the beautiful courtyard makes this Chettiar marvel truly majestic. Keep it up, Team Visalam

Hidden Little Gem

Posted Aug. 13, 2019 on Hotels
as usual with any CGH property, the hotel was great... lovely staff,,, excellent little gem found in the middle of no where. the Swimming pool was great... only thing that they could improve is to have some food options for kids as they sometimes are fussy...other than that all was great.. highly recommended

It was a really nice stay. The place is well maintained, the food is excellent. The staff are friendly. There are add ons like a bullock cart ride and bicycle ride which my kids loved.

Location: Activities included cooking demo, evening walk, etc.
Our stay was an unforgettable experience, we loved every moment we were there.

Luxurious experience of missing past comforts

Posted Jun. 11, 2016 on Expedia
Pros: The architecture, the cleanlilness, the pleasant service.
Cons: Provide refrigerator and coffee/tea making facilities in the bedroom. If there is no-one at the front desk to pick up the phone, re-direct the call.
The property is a beautifully restored old Chettiar home. The bedrooms had the look and feel of the past, but also the inadequacies: no coffee/tea making in the room, no refrigerator. The property is cosy and boutique-like, with only 15 rooms - which is too few to have a liquor licence. So you can't enjoy a beer on a hot day. The service is also slow, since the kitchen is far from the three locations at which meals are served. So, if you think modern comforts and rapid service are essential in a place you'd like to call home in this arid locale, this hotel isn't for you. However, if you want to experience life as it was a century ago in a wealthy Chettiar home, this is fabulous.
