Every mesmerizing destination in India must include a perfect base. At ETG, we’re fortunate enough to have experienced a huge array of hotels in India to suit any adventure, whether you're looking for pure luxury or a humble homestay.
MORE THAN APLACE TO SLEEP
Accommodation in India is a huge part of the holiday experience and can really elevate your time in the country. We’ll strive to opt for the right accommodation for each individual client to create a luxury India holiday that is right for you. We do though have a penchant for the smaller, characterful properties that have a story and history to them. These can range from a simple former haveli in a city to a luxuriant sprawling boutique plantation property in a beautiful rural region where you get a real insight into life in rural India. Due to the sheer array of properties, it might be that a diverse mix helps you tick all the boxes but whether it's luxury all the way through or simple family-run abodes, we have you covered.
CHOOSE YOUR CATEGORY?
Luxury Hotels & Palaces
In this category, the hotels are sumptuous and always luxurious. The service is exclusive, and the atmosphere rarefied. These palaces and hotels beautifully reflect the splendour and opulence of former ages - undoubtedly an Indian hallmark.
Heritage Havelis & Hotels
Ranging from the fabulously luxurious to quirky faded grandeur, Heritage Havelis and hotels all have character in spades although due to age, some of these buildings may have quirky architecture, erratic plumbing, low doorways or unguarded drops. Push your comfort zone and you’ll be rewarded.
Boutique Hotels
On an Experience Travel Group holiday, a boutique hotel will always have character and an informal atmosphere conducive to enjoyment that will add to your overall India holiday experience. Boutique hotels are those which have been built for their guests and are perhaps run in a more professional style than those in the Heritage Havelis & Hotels section, without detracting from the particular character of the region.
Safari & Adventure
These accommodation options range from luxury tents inspired by the travelling style of the Maharajas and their armies, to lodges built in the wilderness to best observe the local wildlife. Whatever type, we think these give a unique insight into local wildlife and the integrated traditions and ways of life of rural India.
Heritage Homestays
Heritage Homestays are pretty unique to India, though could perhaps be best likened to a family run bed & breakfast in the UK and are generally properties owned by older members of the former landed gentry. The service is always warm and friendly, though often the local staff will have very limited English and will rely on the family to translate and it is often quirky and idiosyncratic.
Beach properties in India
From boutique hotels to laidback cabanas and luxury resorts, India again has a wide variety of beach hotels. Key to the selection will be the beach itself and of course how the style of resort matches your taste and preferences.

HOTELS WITH EXPERIENCE TRAVEL GROUP
At Experience Travel Group (ETG), we understand that the right hotel can make your holiday. That’s why every hotel in our collection has been personally vetted by a member of our team - we have our own rating system and pretty exacting standards, too (for every one hotel you see, there may well be five that haven’t made the cut!). Our main touchstone is that each hotel we work with genuinely enhances your experience of the destination. What might work for one traveller might not suit another, so your dedicated travel consultant will work with you to find properties that tick all your boxes.
