Mysore Hotels – In the Lap of Luxury

Since the distance from Bangalore to Mysore is around 130 kilometers, a lot of tourists stay back to soak the beauty of the city and because of this, a lot of Mysore Hotels, ranging from five star hotels to budget have sprung up and are competing with each other to present the best to their customers. The rise of several star hotels has done nothing to mar the historical charm and beauty of the city.

The Royal Orchid group has about 14 business and pleasure hotels set in different parts of the country and they have two in Mysore – Royal Orchid Metrople and Royal Orchid Brindavan. Royal Orchid Metrople, a four star hotel, has a lot of imposing structures and intricate rooms that exhibit the rich heritage of the city. Once you visit the hotel you would feel as if you were in a new and reconstructed Mysore, because each area of the hotel has evidence of the richness envisioned by the former Maharaja of the Mysore palace. This building was constructed to house British guests during the 1920s. You have so much to see inside the hotel that you will have to spend an entire day going through its delicately and intricately carved rooms and corridors.

A major attraction of the Royal Orchid Metrople is that it is situated in the heart of Mysore and at a distance of about one kilometer from the railway station and the bus stand. The Mysore Palace is also quite near, about 2.2 kilometers. However the distance to the airport is about 180 kilometers. Some of the amenities provided in the business suites, royal wings and other executive suites are Wi-Fi, mini refrigerator bar, transformers, adapters, secretarial services, snack basket, fruit basket, ladies kit, children’s kit, tea and coffee maker, bathrooms, cotton slippers and so on.

You will be treated like a king because in Metrople there are five people attending to the needs of a single guest. You can enjoy the same services and entertainment that the Mysore Maharaja presented to the British guests. The entertainments are effulgent because you can watch court jesters, snake charmers, magicians, musicians and dancers. You can pamper your mind, body and soul at the spa with a full body massage and bath.

Mysore is the ideal destination for visits with your family and also for honeymoons. If you are visiting Mysore, it is recommended that you make your bookings well in advance.
