Pool at Heritage Madurai

Heritage Madurai

Madurai, India

This property was designed in the 1970s by renowned Sri Lankan architect, Geoffrey Bawa, as the Coat's Madurai Club. It is built from a variety of local materials, including honey-colored stone cut from the nearby hills, slabs from an abandoned mill, and pillars salvaged from derelict houses.

Now converted into a hotel, the rooms and facilities are spread across extensive grounds, making it a relaxing base after a busy day of sightseeing in Madurai.
