When I was at World Travel Market I of course met up with the General Manager and Vice President of The Imperial Hotel in New Delhi.   The Imperial has elegance, prestige, heritage, comfort and choices for those who would visit Delhi in style and luxury.  In this last year the hotel has been presented with a number of prestige travel awards, all too numerous to mention and they are deserved.  There is an attention to detail which discerning travellers find attractive.

Pomp and circumstance 

I recommend first timers to Delhi to at least visit for a meal and then wander the ground floor corridors of marble and gold leaf and inspect the wealth of prints and memorabilia on the walls; these give you an idea of the great nation that is/was India and the part the British played in the colonial times which then led to nationhood in 1947.  Pomp and circumstance are always riveting to observe and nowhere in the world did pomp and imperial glory quite like India.  Moreover the heated swimming pool is one of the very best in all India and the Spa….well it is a complete dream.  

New Delhi business

Business people also have the choice of a beautiful separate Business Centre equipped in the customary Imperial elegance.  I have loved this hotel since I was a child so am unashamedly partisan of course but all our friends have similar feelings and appreciation of this great heritage hotel in the heart of New Delhi.  Go and Visit and Enjoy it for yourselves!
