Experience Travel Group

Luxury hotels in India are some of the most romantic and evocative buildings to be found anywhere in the world, often former (or current) palaces which have been transformed into some of the world’s finest hotels. There is nothing as exciting during your luxury Indian holiday as pretending you’re a Maharaja (or a Marahani), if only for a day or two!

In this category, the hotels are sumptuous and always luxurious. The service is extremely exclusive, and the atmosphere rarefied. Whilst some might find an entire holiday staying in these hotels a little too much, these palaces and hotels beautifully reflect the splendour and opulence of former ages. This type of luxury and opulence is undoubtedly an Indian hallmark.

At Experience Travel Group we’re able to give you expert advice on which hotel might suit you and where it could be worth splashing out on one of these fantastic places.
