India Ultimate Stays
There’s a saying in India, Atithi Devo Bhava, which translates to “A Guest is like God.” It is clear hospitality is deeply embedded in the culture of India. Indians are genuinely honored to welcome guests into their homes, offering delicious food, drink, and company.
As such, the country’s hotels follow suit. Beyond taking pride in unsurpassed service, hotels reflect a rich heritage experienced through architecture, décor, and food. Traveling to India with Micato is certain to be an immersive cultural experience for all senses, sans the stress of planning and coordination.
Where You’ll Stay
Luxurious accommodations known for comfort, service, and amenities are on tap during India Ultimate Stays with Micato. Oberoi Hotels was recognized as tops by Travel+Leisure readers this year and for good reason. Each hotel strives to not only treat each guest like royalty but provide an environment fit for royals, as well.
The Oberoi Amarvilas in Agra is located near the Taj Mahal, with views of this magnificent monument from nearly every room. Sip a cocktail on your private balcony while watching the sunset colors paint the minarets in delicate shades of pink and light blue.
The Rambagh Palace in Jaipur was once the home of the Maharaja, or “great ruler” and his beautiful Maharani. Maharaja and Maharani Gayatri Devi once hosted many prominent guests, including Queen Elizabeth II and Jacqueline Kennedy. Quickly lose track of time and be transported to another era among beautiful, historically rich accommodations set among lush green lawns where peacocks preen.
The Oberoi Vanyavilas takes glamping — glamorous camping — to a new level. Inspired by royal tents from the days of yore, each tent has a private garden and stately furnishings far from the typical camping chairs. The property borders Ranthambore National Park, home to the elusive and majestic Royal Bengal Tiger — so a visit to the park is a must.
