India’s expanding offering of extravagant properties is making it one of the world’s most popular luxury holiday destinations.
Booking.com internal data revealed that 25 per cent of all bookings to Indian hotels in the past year were for five-star, soaring way above the global average.
From palatial city hotels to magnificent mountain retreats, the most highly reviewed luxury stays in India, include the majestic Suryagarh, a luxury boutique hotel housed in a traditional sandstone fortress in the heart of the Rajasthani desert; the irresistibly chic La Villa in Pondichéry; Wildflower Hall, a dreamy mountain retreat in the foothills of the Himalayas; The Imperial, one of New Delhi’s finest hotels; Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, an eternal Mumbai favourite with breath-taking views of the Arabian Sea; and The Oberoi Grand, a sumptuous sanctuary of gleaming chandeliers and gorgeous fabrics in Kalkota.
