Old Cossimbazar (berhampore) Palace

Reviewed By Natalie1204 - Kolkata (Calcutta), India

For a lover of history and being passionate about travel, I couldn’t have selected a better place to stay. The palace is the perfect blend of historic as well as modern. Recently renovated, the toilets are brand new & spankingly clean, I love that the rooms are airy and have four-poster beds. My personal favourite are the rooms on the ground floor (so I feel closer to nature). There’s a tennis court for those who want their exercise in the mornings or you can simply walk around the premises. The palace has its own restaurant open to outsiders too and the food is delicious. The museum is awesome. Make sure you have someone to take you around - the family history is intriguing. The service is fantastic. You feel like royalty!
