Hotels

India’s accommodation options are as varied as the country itself, with everything from former royal palaces turned into luxury hotels to intimate family-run properties in the countryside.

Some of our favourite hotel options include smaller boutique havelis tucked in amongst the bustle of Rajasthan’s most exciting cities, glamourous safari tents in the national parks, and tropical beachside bungalows in the Andaman Islands.

Alternatively, spend a night on a traditional Keralan houseboat where you’ll glide along the magical backwaters. Relax with a cocktail in hand as you watch the sunset over the Taj Mahal from your hotel’s private balcony, or rest up in simple village houses as you trek some of the most dramatic landscapes in the Himalayan foothills.

With so many hotels in India to choose from, make sure that you speak to one of our friendly travel specialists. Each of our India experts has travelled the country extensively and can make accommodation suggestions that are perfect for you.
