Green Hotel is a Heritage Hotel
located at Mysore (Karnataka,
India).
The Chittaranjan Palace, built
for Mysore's princesses, has been lovingly restored as a small
hotel. In extensive gardens, with formal lawns and shaded
pergolas, and fringed by majestic trees, the hotel has been
renovated and furnished using traditional Indian crafts.
The gardens are large and
provide peaceful relaxation. The hotel has won the Mysore
Horticultural Society first prize for the best garden and for
the Rose Garden, and for the display of potted plants.
Because of the excellent
climate, guests spend most of the day in the garden, on the
lawns, or, for those in the Garden Block, on the terrace
outside their rooms.
Hotel does not have
air-conditioned rooms, TV or generators because of
environmentally friendly policies. However the hotel is very
airy and well ventilated, all the rooms have fans, and the
temperatures in Mysore make air conditioning largely unnecessary. Hotel offers spacious, soothing lawns and shady
trees to recline under.
Mysore provides
an excellent base from which to tour South India. The Western
Ghats, the coffee plantations of Coorg, the game reserves of
the Nilgris and the Ooty hill station are all within a few
hours drive.
Distances

is visited as Ex-Bangalore
