Amritsar
An 1863 colonial circuit house has been painstakingly restored over two years by Sanchit Arora of Renesa Architecture Design Interiors Studio. Rather than altering the existing structure, the design of the old bungalow has been retained — walls and ceilings of different heights standing intact exactly as they were.
Unlike most restaurants with a common dining hall, The Governor House is divided into six distinct rooms, each evoking its own vibe and personality. Dining here feels less like a restaurant experience and more like being invited into a governor's private residence for a grand evening.
"We wanted to bring the old-world charm back to Amritsar — nobody has restored old buildings quite like this." — Kavish Khurana · Founder, Elgin Hospitality
Each room at The Governor House carries its own character, furniture, light and soul — unlike any restaurant in Amritsar. You don't dine in a room. You inhabit one.
A grand piano, gilded mirrors and a chequered floor. The first room you encounter — and the one that sets the tone for everything that follows.
Soft lamps, arched alcoves, a chandelier and curated books lining the shelves. The most contemplative corner of the residence.
Where the bar resides — spirit-forward, amber-lit, and always at the centre of the evening's most animated conversations.
Private, deliberate, formal. For occasions that demand a room with a sense of history and the weight of consequence.
Intimate, feminine and refined — the most personal room in the residence. A space that seems to hold its breath for you.
Stacked with history, artefacts and the quiet hum of another century — every object has been hand-picked by the founders.

Two worlds within one house — the Council Chamber for aged spirits, the Governor’s Garden for cocktails built on fresh produce, house sodas and pickles.
