About the Property
Dhruv Heritage Lake Resort is one of Karnataka's most distinguished addresses — a grand colonial-era estate set upon the banks of a private lake near the royal city of Mysore. The property has been meticulously preserved and reimagined, honouring the architectural grandeur of its heritage while offering the amenities and sensibilities of a modern luxury resort.
The resort's lake is its centrepiece — a glassy expanse that mirrors the sky from gold sunrise to violet dusk, offering guests the rare pleasure of watching Mysore's legendary light from a vantage point that is entirely private. Boating, sunrise lake walks and evening pavilion dining over the water are among the experiences that define a stay at Dhruv Heritage.
There is a particular quality of silence at Dhruv at dusk — the lake perfectly still, the heritage towers reflected in the water, the palace of Mysore visible in the distance. It is India at its most majestic.A Heritage Guest at Dhruv
