Overview

Built in 1931, The Imperial has a somewhat unconventional style and design; a mixture of Victorian and old colonial with a playful dosage of art-deco.

Location

The Imperial is located on the prestigious Queen's Way, now Janpath. It is a stone's throw away from Connaught Place, the world's most uniquely designed, fashionable shopping market and premium business district of New Delhi. The National Museum, National Gallery of Modern Art, the Dolls Museum and many Theatres are a 5-minute drive from the hotel. The main sight-seeing attractions like the India Gate, Humayun's Tomb, Baha'i Temple, Red Fort and the Old Delhi city are easily accessible as the hotel is located in the heart of the capital. The Imperial is also less than 10 minutes away from the main parks like the Lodhi Garden and Nehru Park and 30 minutes away from the International airport.

Accommodation

Two hundred and thirty four spacious singles, doubles and suites, the rooms at The Imperial retain the regal flourishes of a wondrous past. With its high ceilings, impeccable décor, combined with modern comforts, The Imperial is a delight for the fastidious connoisseur.

Privacy, tranquility and unwritten personal attention bring its patrons back to the hotel year after year. 'The First Maiden of the East' is seldom, if ever deserted by her guests, who adore her with persevering loyalty.

Facilities

While the rest of New Delhi has thrust itself skyward around the hotel, The Imperial lies like a green palm-fringed oasis. Nothing typifies this more than the private swimming pool deep in the shaded grounds of the hotel. A true respite from vigours of modern day life! The Imperial also boasts some of the finest restaurants in New Delhi, which offer a fine dining experience, spanning Indian, south-east Asian, French and Italian cuisine, to suit any occasion. Notably, The Spice Route, offering south-east Asian cuisine, has been voted as one of the top ten restaurants in the world by Condé Nast Traveller.
