Conceptualized in 1934 by Blomfield and inaugurated
by Lord Wiilingdon in 1936, it was in Lutyen's
scheme of things to build the most luxurious hotel

Dinning :
The
Imperial houses some of the finest restaurants in
New Delhi, which offer a fine dining experience to
suit any occasion.
The Spice Route :
The Spice Route was
the grand riddle and also the golden chariot of the
medieval world. From whence came the aromatic gold
of the Indies. The restaurant offers humble homage
and obeisance to the painters of Guruvayur, to the
craftsmen of Borbudur and the wats of Kurugehep, now
known as Bangkok. Within its museum quality
interiors' we invite you to an armchair travelogue
to the wonders of South- East Asian cuisine from the
historical 'Spice Route'.
The Daniell's Tavern :
The Daniell's Tavern
is the most elegant restaurant in town and houses
the famous works of Thomas & William Daniells, the
uncle and nephew duo, who travelled extensively in
India during 1786-1793 and painted its unrivalled
scenery. In the process they also discovered the
cuisine of India. The restaurant offers Colonial
Indian and Continental cuisine complete with a live
band and a Bar.
Patiala PegThe Patiala Peg commemorates the Maharaja
of Patiala's team's victory over the Viceroy's, in a
robust game of tent-pegging in the early 1900's. The
Patiala Peg with it's stock of fine wines and
liquors, offers the perfect setting to relax after a
hard day's work.
The Garden Party :
This was Pandit
Nehru's favourite place to meet with his friends.
Over tea and snacks, they would discuss at length
lofty ideals and more practical matters.
Banquets and Meetings :
Now renovated this quiet white - trellised verandah
is 'The Garden Party' restaurant. A secluded spot
for quick meals and delicious snacks round the
clock, it overlooks acres of lush green garden of
the hotel.
The Royal
Ballroom evokes the splendour of Lords and Ladies
bowing and curtseying, before they swirled across
the floor to the strains of waltzes. This is where
the distinguished guests amused themselves when Lord
Willingdon opened the hotel in 1933.
It is probably the only authentic
ballroom remaining in India.
The vast ballroom today also serves
as a venue for conferences and lavish parties for
the elite, sitting up to 500 guests, auditorium
style.
The Imperial also offers two
mid-sized conference rooms for up to 80 people each
and three exclusive meeting rooms, which can
individually accommodate up to 18 guests.

Delhi
is the capital
of India and the third-largest city after Mumbai and Calcutta.
Delhi has not always been the capital of India but it has
played an important role in Indian history. Delhi is a relatively
easy city to find your way around in,
although it is very spread out. The section of interest
to visitors is on the west bank of the Yamuna River and
is divided basically into two parts, viz. Old
Delhi and New Delhi. Old Delhi is basically
the 17th century walled city of Shahjahanabad,
with city gates, narrow alleys, the enormous Red
Fort and Jama Masjid, temples, mosques,
bazaars and the famous street/area known as Chandni
Chowk. New Delhi is a planned city of wide,
tree-lined streets, parks and fountains. Its hub
is the great circle of Connaught Place and the streets that
radiate south from it. Here you will find most of
the airline offices, banks, travel agents,
the various state tourist offices, the
national tourist office, economical rest/guest
houses and several of the big hotels.
