Six landscaped acres in New Delhi’s Diplomatic Enclave surround Taj Palace, a broad modernist building whose curved plan opens many rooms towards gardens or the city. The interiors balance polished stone, Indian artwork and richly patterned textiles across rooms and suites designed on a generous scale. Dining is a defining feature: Loya explores northern regional cooking, Orient Express recreates the atmosphere of a dining carriage, and House of Ming, Capital Kitchen and The Blue Bar add further contrast. J Wellness Circle and the outdoor pool sit among lawns and mature trees behind the main facade.
