The hotel has walls that are at least a couple of feet thick, especially the wall opposite this door. They have to be, because the hotel is set in the outer walls of Fort St George!

Door in the wall
Very nice, isn't it? 'Hotel Bindu' is not easy to find. It primarily serves the armymen based in Fort St George - and I am not sure if it is still in business, it does look as though the door hasn't been opened for a long while.

I love those stone walls! Must be cool to stay in a hotel that used to be a fort — a different experience, to say the least.
@ Hilda: Ah! Like Jacob, you've also been misled by the Indian use of the word 'Hotel' - more often than not, you will not be able to stay at such 'Hotels'; we use them only because it takes too much time to say 'Restaurants' :)
