 Soma Kerala Palace gives you an opportunity to appreciate the Kerala architecture in these wonderfully recreated structures. This is your chance to take a walk down the memory lane to the era of kings and palaces. The hotel is an interesting portfolio of these architectural gems built on the bedrock of the Vaasthu Vidya. Built to meet the occupational and vocational needs of its owners, each one of these structures are so different, though a common architectural thread runs through them. Amongst others, this heritage hotel comprises of 'Sreedhari', 'Kozhanal malika' and 'Chempulayil'. Originally built in 1890, 'Sreedhari' was an Ayurveda hospital in central Kerala, which was carefully recreated as part of the Soma Kerala palace complex in 2003. The building was originally built to cater to all the operations including collecting medicinal herbs, extracting the concoction and distributing it to the needy. Kozhanal malika on the other hand is the erstwhile royal home of the a Kshatriya clan of Kerala ( warriors). Designed to cater to the entertainment and relaxation of the male members of the family, it was here where the male members stayed and practised martial art lessons as well. It became part of Soma Kerala palace in 2002 when it was carefully disbanded from its original location to be recreated..Chempulayil, built for trading tobacco traces its origin to 1890. Built along the banks of the Meenachil River, this impressive edifice also became part of Kerala palace four years back. Neythallor Math is a traditional Kerala homestead built in the ettukettu style, built around two inner courtyards. This 18th century structure originally built in Kanyakumari, part of erstwhile Travancore was recreated in 2004 to be part of Soma Kerala palace. The mostly wooden structure has separate living areas for men and women inhabitants and cater to all the needs of the huge joint family system which existed then. Special areas are earmarked for dining, sleeping, meditation and guests. In addition to the above listed there is an impressive collection of traditional homesteads and regal homes in Kerala palace.
