Maidens Hotel, New Delhi

This heritage hotel, one of the oldest in the city, was built in 1903 and has retained its elegant allure, a boutique, old world charm evoked through graceful colonial architecture and style. Surrounded by luxuriant gardens, it retains the feel of a hideaway while still being close to all New Delhi has to offer. A magical escape from modernity. Dinner at The Curzon Room is a trip through time, sample stunning European and Indian cuisine as you marvel at the archive photographs of the Raj in India that dot the walls. The Garden Terrace is a charming and informal coffee shop on an open courtyard, and the early 19th century Cavalry bar serves excellent cocktails. Enjoy relaxing walks among a magnificent eight acres of verdant tropical gardens, or take advantage of one of the tennis courts situated in the grounds.
