From its fabulous location in the heart of New Delhi’s cosmopolitan metropolis, the Oberoi New Delhi offers a central base for exploring this cultural city.
With luxury and comfort front of mind, this hotel was designed as a contemporary interpretation of Sir Edwin Lutyens’ architecture found around the district. This is reflected in the 220 rooms and suites, which are carefully furnished with handpicked items and artwork in line with Lutyens’ approach. These somewhat pale into insignificance though when you catch a glimpse of the views through large picture windows of the Delhi golf course and Humanyun’s Tomb, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Service here is second to none with butlers available 24 hours every day and four bars and three restaurants. Choose to indulge in the views with a sundowner in the brand new open air rooftop bar Cirrus9, along with the savvy residents of the city. If you would like to be a little more low key, head to either the wine cellar Enoteca, the Club Bar or the Cigar Lounge.
The restaurants cater to international and local tastes with Omya serving authentic Indian cuisine, under the mentorship of internationally renowned chef Alfred Prasad and Baoshuan offering Chinese delicacies on the rooftop terrace. Enjoy a meal at the recently redesigned 360 degree for either breakfast, lunch or dinner.
When you have taken in the sights, sounds and smells of Delhi, retreat to the Oberoi Spa for some R’n’R at the wellness centre – either in the heated indoor and outdoor pool or in the fitness centre.
