The full-wedding hall

Majestic Hall

Majestic is the largest of the five halls at Royal Court and the one most Madurai families end up booking, for a simple reason: it takes a full wedding guest list without splitting it across two rooms. Two hundred to two hundred and fifty people sit down together, and everyone can still see the stage.

  • 200–250 Guests
  • Temple View
  • Centralised A/C
  • Projector & Screen

About the hall

What Majestic is actually like

The room runs long rather than square, which is what makes it work for a reception. The stage and backdrop sit at one end, seating fills the middle, and the buffet line runs down the side wall so the queue never crosses the aisle families use to reach the couple. On a conference day the same footprint turns over to theatre rows facing a projector and screen, and we have run it that way for dealer meets and annual conferences for years.

One window on the hall looks out towards the Meenakshi Amman temple — the detail photographers ask about first, and the reason evening functions here tend to run their portrait session indoors rather than moving the party outside. The hall is centrally air-conditioned, so a May afternoon function is no different from a December one.

Because the kitchen is ours and it is in the same building, a 250-plate service does not depend on an outside caterer arriving on time. Menus are built with you across South Indian, North Indian and Continental, with live counters if you want them, and the banquet team that plates the food is the same team that sets the hall.

What comes with the hall

Majestic, in detail

01

Temple view

A rare sightline to the Meenakshi Amman temple from inside the hall — worth a look before you fix the stage position.

02

Stage-end layout

The long axis keeps the stage visible from the back row and keeps the buffet queue off the main aisle.

03

Projector and screen

Fitted, not hired in. Slides, montages and live feeds are set up before you arrive.

04

Centralised air-conditioning

The whole floor is cooled, not spot-cooled, so the back rows are as comfortable as the front.

05

In-house catering at scale

A 250-plate service handled by our own kitchen in the same building — no external caterer to coordinate.

06

24/7 valet parking

Guests hand the car over at the entrance on West Veli Street instead of circling for a slot.

Majestic questions

Before you book this hall

How many guests can Majestic Hall seat for a wedding reception?
Between 200 and 250. That is a seated figure, not a standing one — 250 people can be at tables at the same time with the stage still visible from the back of the room. If your list is closer to 120, Viceroy Hall is the better-proportioned room.
Can Majestic Hall be used for a conference rather than a wedding?
Yes, and it regularly is. The hall reconfigures into theatre rows or classroom seating facing the fitted projector and screen, with stage audio and mics set up before delegates arrive. It is the room we use for annual conferences, dealer meets, AGMs and seminars of up to 250 people.
Is the Meenakshi Amman temple actually visible from inside Majestic Hall?
Yes — there is a sightline to the temple from the hall. It is worth seeing in person before you fix the stage position, because it changes where most couples want the backdrop to go. Ask the banquet team to show you the room at the time of day your function starts.
Do we have to use your catering for a function in Majestic Hall?
Yes, all catering is in-house. For a 250-plate service that is the point: the kitchen is in the same building as the hall, so the food does not depend on an outside caterer arriving on time. Menus are built with you across South Indian, North Indian and Continental, with live counters and plated or buffet service.
