Historic

Nadesar Palace, located in the sacred city of Varanasi, India, is an epitome of regal elegance and historical charm. The palace's architecture reflects a blend of colonial and Indian styles, with grand columns, expansive verandas, and intricately carved facades. Surrounded by lush gardens and orchards, the palace exudes an aura of tranquillity and grandeur, offering a serene retreat from the bustling city. The building’s heritage is carefully preserved, making it a living testament to the rich history and culture of Varanasi.

Taj Nadesar Palace is a luxurious new hotel in the holy Hindu city of Varanasi in India. Built in the late 18th-century by the East India Company, it was bought by the Maharaja Prabhu Narayan Singh to offer sumptuous accommodation to visiting dignitaries. After the Maharajah died, the two-storey, yellow plastered palace went into grand decay, until it was spectacularly restored by the Taj Group and converted into an intimate, boutique palace chic hotel.

The Gateway Hotel Ganges is an elegant urban retreat, surrounded by lush tropical gardens and landscaped lawns within the Nadesar Palace, just 6kms from the Varanasi city centre. Set back from the hustle and bustle of downtown and managed by the prestigious Taj group, it offers excellent value against similar town hotels. It is conveniently located near Varanasi, the cultural and religious centre and regarded as a holy place for several thousand years by Hindus, Buddhists and Jains.
