Ambassador Taj
New Delhi, India

Set in the aristocratic heart of New Delhi, Ambassador is a contemporary hotel serving up a slice in time. Just a short drive from the international airport, it ushers leisure and business travelers into a red-brick and pink bougainvillaea neighborhood, surrounded by plush shopping districts, gardens and magnificent monuments.

With its British and Art Deco architectural medley, the Ambassador offers guests a chance to live a refined New Delhi life in its greenest district. The luxury boutique 5 star hotel in Delhi is an INTACH Heritage Building built in 1947, the year that India gained independence and Lutyens, named after the British architect who built most of modern New Delhi, became the epicenter of the city’s intelligentsia. Green/Sustainability certification and cheery design elements infuse a millennial vibe into the nostalgia-tinted spaces. The hotel’s culinary offerings are some of the finest in New Delhi. The exclusive Gourmands’ Itinerary lets diners experience signature dishes from all restaurants at one price, starting with aperitifs at Insomnia, moving to colonial-era classics at Yellow Brick Road and ending with Cantonese and Szechuan cuisines at Larry’s China. Ambassador’s versatile banqueting venues are designed to execute flawless events, from corporate meetings and champagne soirees to glitzy weddings.

Along with warm hospitality, guests can experience one of the most stalwart addresses in the country near Khan Market. The Ambassador Concierge offers Heritage Walks around the iconic neighborhood and on the Delhi Metro Circuit. Feeding Pigeons on Lutyens Lawn in the hotel is another activity that’s as vintage Delhi as it gets. A spot of High Tea on the Terrace and Dinner under the Stars spins magical moments into your stay.
