The Imperial New Delhi

New Delhi, India

A historic 1936 Art Deco icon displaying over 5,000 original artworks in the heart of India's capital

 

Inaugurated in 1936, The Imperial New Delhi bridges colonial history, Victorian architecture, and Art Deco styling directly in the heart of the capital city. The property functions as a museum-quality venue, displaying a private collection of over 5,000 original 17th- and 18th-century Indo-European prints, paintings, and statues lining its wide, marble-paved corridors. Accommodation layouts range from high-ceilinged Deco Suites to extensive heritage rooms decorated with rosewood furnishings, polished brass fixtures, and woven Persian rugs. Beyond its historical aesthetic, the property features versatile urban resort facilities: an expansive outdoor reflection pool, a dedicated Ayurvedic spa, and distinct culinary venues like The Spice Route—renowned for its hand-carved South Asian woodwork—and the historic 1911 Bar. By insulating guests from the chaotic pace of the surrounding city while keeping them steps from major cultural sites, the hotel delivers a tranquil, highly functional urban sanctuary.
