BEST HOTELS & RESORTS IN INDIA

1. The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai

First opened in 1903, the grand dame of Indian hotels is every bit as iconic as the Gateway of India, the monument that it overlooks. Between the original building—a ravishing confection of domes and turrets designed in the Indo-Saracenic style—and its adjacent 1970s-built tower wing, the harbor-side property has 550 rooms and suites and a gamut of fine restaurants, including Wasabi by Morimoto and Masala Kraft for regional Indian cuisine.
