Amazing history, a true palace. Courteous service. Spa a bit expensive. Could benefit from more activities (maybe a guided tour of Hyderabad historical palaces, forts). Food for vegetarians could be a bit better in terms of choice.

It was the best stay we have had in India so far in our 30 years of travelling. What made it outstanding was its simple elegance of the guest rooms and the grandeur of the main palace was well maintained and kept. It was a surreal experience to be enjoyed, savoured and repeated for sure. The staff were extremely kind and took care of all our needs and beyond. If you feel you need to celebrate or simply thank yourself for being you , stay here to be royalty and be treated like one.

The staff constantly went out of their way to ensure that all our needs were taken care of, besides surprising us with unexpected little extras every day.
