Our founder’s vision quickly gained support from the town’s people and brought in many well-known corporate clients and businessmen from various regions of India.
On August 15, 1990, the Maurya Palace, a hotel with Ac and Non Ac rooms, opened its doors to the public. Along with his hotel, our founder opened one of the finest multi-cuisine restaurants called Jewel Rock, a true jewel for Mysoreans.
