Delhi
Highlights of North India
The North was created to give our guests a real flavour of vibrant Rajasthan, but also to take in the other well-known sights of North India – the increasingly trendy capital Delhi, the reverence of Varanasi and of course home to the infamous Taj Mahal, Agra. It’s a whirlwind trip, but designed to optimise your [...]

Park Hotel, Delhi-India
With its bright pink sofas, lounge music and urban chic furniture in the lobby, it can feel more like stepping into a Clerkenwell bar than a central Delhi hotel. The Park is not cheap, but it has a lovely pool, a good Italian restaurant (which Antonio Carluccio helped launch a few years ago, although standards have [...]
The Imperial, Delhi-India
Only stay here if you have a big budget, but if not, you can drop in for a drink on the lawns for an hour’s peace after trinket shopping on Janpath or sight-seeing at the nearby India Gate.

The Manor, Delhi-India
One of Delhi’s very few boutique hotels, The Manor was originally conceived in the 1950s as a country hotel on the outskirts of Delhi.

Ahuja Residency, India
Right in the centre of Delhi, this is a no-frills guesthouse, which comes highly-recommended. The 1950s home is located in one of the city’s upmarket residential enclaves, Golf Links, and family-owned and run. It’s very central, and best of all walking distance from the extraordinary shopping arcarde of Khan Market, where you can buy everything from €17.000 antique [...]
