Bernard Dragon and his colleague have done a fantastic job of restoring the Chettiar home to its former Glory. Staying at the property provides a unique insight into the lifestyle of the heydays of the Chettiar families.
The well thought out local cuisine for dinners was very appealing. The South Indian Breakfast with dosas and steaming idlis were welcome...
The Ayurvedic massage was a fantastic experience.
Built in 1902, the beautiful Chettinadu Mansion in Kāraikkudi boasts stunning architecture, Italian marble flooring and wooden furnishings.

excellent place , located near to major attractions . good hospitality communication
food exceptional
The whole place needed a facelift. Was looking seedy n run down. Even the front needed a paint work. Bathroom was smelling. The toilet bowl the wash basin n the buckets were dirty. The flooring was not clean n we had to leave our footwear outside. Food was very poor . Rotis were undercooked and we had a stomach upset.
Limited choice in food and even that was not good

Typical small village in Tamil Nadu which has a lot of history. Very good accessibility to the location and not too far from major cities and towns. An ideal place if one was looking for peace and quiet in a village surrounding. A lot of antiques especially house hold related, available to see and handicraft also ( weaving, tiles )

Comfortable stay for short trip and daughter would like to stay in Chettinad style of houses, she was really enjoyed and liked this place. Great antique design with neatly arranged items in the house and rooms with hand painted tiles and the staff's are very helpful, especially manager was keep calling before our checkin and arranged dinner when we did late checkin, good room service, the entire staffs makes you feel very comfortable. Definitely recommend for a short stay.
Keep in the mind, this hotel is bit away from Mainland Karaikudi. Rest all good.

If you are a person interested in traditional architecture...
If you are a person interested in traditional architecture of the Chettinad region, Kanadukattan is an excellent location to use as your base. Nearby temples, forts, sacred groves are all worth a visit. Ideal months to visit will be from November to February when the whether is nice for sight seeing and exploring.

The place charges more than Taj Vivanta, but the facilities...
The place charges more than Taj Vivanta, but the facilities and amenities are not even 20% of TAJ. The Plantain Leaf Lunch was very expensive and atleast 4 times costlier than the plantain leaf lunch available at any other place. The food quality is also not upto the standard. Breakfast was very good. The advertise as HD channels available, but finally star sports non-HD channel was also not available. I have to really fight to change my set-off box since no channels were working. Maintenance of the room is poor. The just clean the room and give to the next guest when one vacates. They do not have a proper maintenance schedule before giving to the guest. The worst about the resort which charges such a high rate is the car parking. They do not have covered car park and you have to park in a muddy ground and when it rains it is horrible. Even when you alight from car to enter the hotel you have to alight in the open space and when it rains it is a nightmare.

The grandness of the town..
The grandness of the town.. Almost all the houses (I should call the palace) were so big and if constructed by anyone now it would be impossible to do and maintain such huge mansions. I never expected to see such grand houses the people used them as dwelling places just until a few decades ago. Check this place to experience the culture, heritage and architecture. You are in a relaxed town to forget the busy city life. The food you can explore a lot of local cusines especially for non-vegetarians. Overall visit the place to relax, dine and enjoy the calm and peaceful town.
