Experiencing the elegance of New Delhi’s colonial era without ever leaving the lobby: only the Imperial can offer that. The dazzling white colonial structure from 1931 is part of Edwin Lutyens’ urban vision: The British architect designed New Delhi as the new capital of India. The veranda with its colonnades offers expansive views of manicured lawns and palm trees. The corridors and public rooms contain a collection of valuable original artwork which visitors can explore under the guidance of one of the hotel’s employees.
