This property is expected to be operational by December 2023, and shall be managed by Carnation Hotels Private Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary and the management arm of Lemon Tree Hotels Limited.

Places of tourist interest include the Erode Government Museum which is a rich repository of objects related to art, anthropology and archaeology and is one of the largest storehouses of art and culture in Tamil Nadu. For budding ornithologists, there is Birds Sanctuary, Vellode which is home to many foreign birds.
