Alastair Sawday's Special Places to Stay: India - 2nd Edition

More about the book

Now in its second edition, this trusted guide is essential reading for the independent traveller to India interested in culture, style and people. It has 210 special places to stay, including colonial hill stations, safari camps and sprawling palaces. From £10 to £210 a night, this is a remarkable collection of places that will transform travel in India.We look for owners, homes and hotels that we like – and we are fiercely subjective in our choices. ‘Special’ for us is not about the number of creature comforts, but relates to many elements that make a place ‘work’. Certainly, the way guests are treated comes as high on our list as the setting, the architecture and the food.
