Chidambara Vilas was our wedding venue. It was held over 2 days, 3 nights and we stayed a total 5 nights and we could not have imagined a more ideal ambience, amenities or hospitality. The aesthetics of the ***sion transports you back in time and you feel an immediate sense of serenity stepping into this ancestral home/hotel with a traditional welcome awaiting. We had booked the venue nearly a year prior, without setting foot, with complete trust in Mr.Senthil and he never faltered. He was readily available to guide us in every detail with great patience, knowledge and experience, creating for a smooth transition in person. The coordination with the other vendors was excellent. Much credit goes to the team at Chidambara Vilas, whose kind and caring personas had us feeling welcome and at home. Notably Ms.Priya, Mr.Dinesh, Mr.Nixon, Mr.Hari and the teams under their supervision. Chef Christy created a menu that gave us a taste of the region in buffet and formal banana leaf dining style with 20+ items for savoring each meal. The items catered well to the varying palates and spice tolerances our guests. Vithya, the in house kolam artist, embellished the entry and floors with her intricate designs to create the perfect focal points for the decor. Finally, we are extremely thankful to the original Chettiyar family and the eldest patriarch, who still resides there, for sharing this beautiful jewel to have a prominent place in our own memories. We have all been enriched by this experience.
