Wondering how the royals lived in majestic palaces? Find all your answers at Taj Nadesar Palace in Varanasi. This flawless structure was once the epitome of power and is nestled in the world’s oldest civilization—Varanasi (to many it’s still Banaras or Kashi). Surrounded by luscious mango orchards and pristine jasmine fields, the palatial abode belonged to Maharaja Prabhu Narain Singh in the 19th-century and is named after goddess Nadesari, located right in front of the temple devoted to the deity.
Upon arrival, be ready to be charmed as you are pleasantly received by the divine melody of conches and chants. The warm hospitality at the palace, now a hotel promising a royal experience, will win your heart.
Stay elegantly in one of the accommodations which once hosted royalty. Painstakingly restored to their original grandeur, each of the ten rooms and suites at Nadesar Palace celebrates luxury in its own decorated colonial style. Arched doorways, marbled corridors, antique furniture and artwork from the Maharaja’s collection make your stay wonderfully unique. Choose to stay at the Palace Rooms, Historical Suite or the unique Royal Suites. Be a part of history and stay at the Mountbatten Suite—the suite used by Lord and Lady Mountbatten.

Designed to delight your palate, the dining venues here will leave you mesmerised. If the hissing of sizzlers doubles your appetite, then sit beside the pool and enjoy a variety of feasts cooked at the Live Indian BBQ. Relax by the pool and enjoy your sumptuous meal while sitar and tabla players enthral you. Relish hot tea served in quaint earthen pots accompanied by local snacks at the Nirvana lounge set amidst mango orchards in full bloom.
And, when in Banaras, how can you miss eating the much-coveted paan Banaras wala and shake a leg like Amitabh Bachchan in Don? Don’t forget to try these too!
Unwinding here is nothing short of divine. Revel in the maharaja treatment at Jiva Spa offering three treatment rooms specialising in traditional Indian therapies using Ayurvedic principles or feel like a maharani as you immerse yourself in the stepwell-style pool, reminiscent of the glorious past.
PS: Mark Twain once said, “Varanasi is older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend, and looks twice as old as all of them put together.” Come relive history at Taj Nadesar Palace, where you can escape the bustle of Banaras while still enjoying the sights of the pristine ghats of vibrant Varanasi.
