Taj Falaknuma Palace

Description

Perched 2,000 feet above the city of Hyderabad is Taj Falaknuma Palace, a jewel amongst the clouds. Built in 1894, it is the former palace of the Nizam, at one time, the richest man in the world. Overlooking the twinkling City of Pearls, this enchanting palace exudes romance and grandeur that take one back to when the Nizam ruled Hyderabad. The five-star luxury hotel, spread over 32 acres, allows you to journey to the gilded ages, where opulence and excess is celebrated and savoured in equal measure. The 60 beautifully refurbished and lovingly restored rooms and suites each provide marvellous views of the palace courtyard and the 400-year old city of Hyderabad. 

Restaurant

Hookah Bar - Breathe in an array of flavours served in an exquisite handcrafted hookah apparatus and transport yourself several centuries back in time. Imbibe the extant fumes of royalty as a delicate floral scent lingers in the air, and try the Jasmine Sour Martini or Orange Coriander Mojito cocktails.

Celeste - This elegant all-day-dining restaurant offers classical Italian and Mediterranean fare that appeals to the palate of even the most discerning connoisseurs. The fine pizzas and pastas, antipasti and cutlets are created with ingredients sourced from across the globe. A truly bespoke experience for a bon vivant.

Adaa – The aromatic journey to indulge your senses at Adaa begins en route to this charming restaurant. Paved with a muster of peacocks by day or resplendent city views by night, the way to Adaa is as enchanting as the food. Carefully crafted, slow-cooked Indian Hyderabadi fare recreates the wonders of the royal kitchens.
