The rooms
Opening the doors.
Loading. One moment.Taj Mahal, New Delhi
Every room at Taj Mahal, New Delhi looks one of two ways. The India Gate side gives the Lutyens treeline and the Secretariat domes in the haze, and it is the view worth paying for. The other side looks over the pool and the garden — quieter, greener, and better if you are here to work rather than to look. Neither is a bad room. Ask for a side deliberately rather than taking what is assigned.
A Taj Club room is only a little larger than a Luxury Room — the difference is not size. Club access buys a floor with its own lounge, breakfast away from the main restaurant, airport transfers, a check-in taken sitting down, and evening canapés substantial enough to replace dinner. Take it for a 3-night business stay; skip it for 2 nights of sightseeing.
The Signature Suite is the first room with a separate sitting room, and the only one below Presidential level with a balcony. In Lutyens' Delhi, in February, that is the whole argument. Take it if you are receiving anyone in your room, or staying more than 4 nights. Below that, the rooms are excellent and the suite is a luxury rather than a fix.
Rates here move with the nights you choose, so there is nothing honest to show until you have chosen them. Pick your dates above and the rooms the house sells online will price themselves.
67 m² · Upper floors · City view · sleeps 3
The suite is 67 square metres arranged as two rooms rather than one large one, and that is the whole of it: a door you can close between the person on a call and the person asleep. The sitting room takes 4 comfortably and 6 at a push, so the family gathers here before a wedding instead of in the lobby. There is no balcony — that is the Signature Suite, one rung up, and it is the only thing the extra 6 square metres gets you.
33 m² · Third to seventh · Lutyens' Delhi view · sleeps 3
The room is 33 square metres on the city side, and the window is the reason to take it. Mansingh Road runs through the only part of Delhi that was drawn before it was built, so you look at roofline and treeline in about equal measure, with almost nothing above 4 storeys. Inside: a king bed, a marble bathroom, and a desk that is a desk rather than a console. There is no lounge access here — that starts one rung up, and if you are not going to use a lounge, do not buy one.

33 m² · Club floors · City or garden view · sleeps 3
The same 33 square metres as the Luxury Room, on a higher floor, with a key that opens the lounge. It adds breakfast, drinks at 7, somewhere to take a meeting that is not your bedroom, and a desk in the lounge when you want people around you. For 3 days of appointments in Delhi it is the right room. For 2 nights and a wedding at the other end of the city it is not. This one has the king bed.

46.5 m² · Club floors · India Gate or the garden view · sleeps 3 + 1 child
A gold-leafed ceiling over 46 square metres, windows onto the Lutyens treeline, and a writing desk turned to the light — which tells you what the room is for. The club floors are high enough that the canopy below is unbroken green, and the lounge is a walk down the corridor rather than a lift ride. Take it if you are in Delhi to work rather than to sightsee.
73 m² · Upper floors · India Gate from most suites view · sleeps 4 + 1 child
A drawing room in coral and indigo: a long sofa under a gilt-framed miniature, two low tables on a blue floral carpet, and the bedroom through a door rather than across the room. The balcony is the point. It is the only suite below Presidential with one, it faces the treeline, and in February you will take breakfast on it every morning without having planned to.
102 m² · Upper floors · India Gate view · sleeps 4
The suite is 102 square metres facing India Gate, which is the one view in Delhi people photograph from a hotel window. A dining table for 6 stands between the sitting room and the bedroom, so this is the suite that hosts rather than the one that sleeps: you can seat a table here without moving furniture. Gold-leaf detailing, a dressing room, and a bathroom with a window.
165 m² · Top floor · India Gate and the Lutyens treeline view · sleeps 4 + 2 children
Arched stonework, crystal chandeliers and gold-leaf frescoes: a Jaipur palace on the top floor of a Delhi hotel, done carefully enough to carry the palace's own name. The suite is 165 square metres — a sitting room, a dining room, a 4-fixture bathroom, a walk-in wardrobe, and a study you could genuinely work in. It sleeps 6. Rather more can be entertained, which is usually what it is taken for.
A short list of extraordinary places to stay.
