Published on: July 30, 2024

Whether you are looking for an exciting city break, to discover the history and heritage of the top cities in India, or want to relax and unwind with luxury holidays, Incredible India has something for you, your friends and family to enjoy. Explore bustling Mumbai, the vibrant National Capital cities of Delhi and Gurgaon, joyful Kolkata or verdant Bengaluru. And experience the unparalleled warmth of Oberoi hospitality every step of the way.

The National Capital City, Delhi is the best place to visit in India time and again. It has served as the capital of numerous kingdoms and empires since the 6th century BCE. In the 1920s, under British rule, Delhi was completely redesigned by Sir Edwin Lutyens and Sir Herbert Baker, who laid the new city out along two promenades: Rajpath, the king’s path and Janpath, the people’s path. Still dotted around the city are original architectural reminders of the city’s long and glorious past. From the Mughal tower of Qutab Minar in the south, to the Red Fort in the north. Near the heart of the city, visitors will find the vast and peaceful Lodi Garden, replete with ancient domed ruins. Just minutes away is Humayun’s Tomb, said to have been the blueprint for the Taj Mahal in Agra. Our 5 star hotel in Delhi is just minutes from Lodi Garden. Rooms and suites on one side of The Oberoi, New Delhi offer uninterrupted views of Humayun’s Tomb. The other side overlooks Delhi Golf Course.

Located to the south of Delhi, within the National Capital Region, Gurgaon is a thriving centre of business and commerce with an ultra-modern vibe. Its contemporary skyline of sleek skyscrapers are home to the country’s largest corporations, international banks and names such as IBM, Google, Microsoft and Deloitte. Gurgaon also offers exciting nightlife options; bars, nightclubs, multiplexes and more. For all the family. The city’s well-maintained, efficient road system and metro make travel easier than ever before. One of the best cities to visit in India, Gurgaon is also the location of New Delhi’s domestic and international airport terminals. Our 5 star hotel in Gurgaon is just minutes from these, yet is imbibed with a resort-like ambience befitting luxury holidays.

Delhi and Mumbai vie for the title of best place to visit in India. After you have experienced both, you can cast your vote! Home to Bollywood, the largest centre of film production outside of Hollywood, Mumbai is also a centre of commerce and trade. Bandra Kurla Complex houses the offices of major international and domestic corporations, and is also a bustling centre for fashionable eateries, including CouCou and Amadeo, both by Oberoi. Mumbai itself is an amalgamation of several islands that are linked by causeways and bridges. The most fantastic of these is the Bandra Worli Sea Link, or Rajiv Gandhi Sea Link. It is an architectural wonder, with eight lanes and magnificent sea views, rivalled only by our 5 star hotel in Mumbai. Perched at the tip of Nariman Point, The Oberoi, Mumbai presents bird’s eye views over the Arabian Sea and fashionable Marine Drive promenade.

Also known as the City of Joy, Kolkata is one of the top cities in India to visit if you are a cricket fan, love arts and culture, or enjoy lively debate over cups of tea. Historically the centre of socio-political dissent, Kolkata has its own brand of socialising or group discussion, or adda, over steaming chai. Kolkata has also produced some of the country’s greatest artists. From the film maker Satyajit Ray to poet Rabindranath Tagore, Kolkata is also the headquarters of Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity and Eden Gardens international cricket stadium. Our 5 star hotel in Kolkata, the Grand Dame of Chowringhee, is centrally located on Jawaharlal Nehru Road, opposite the vast green maidan, and within minutes of the India Museum and Eden Gardens cricket ground.

The best place to visit in India should you be looking for green, open spaces, excellent culinary options and the latest in technology. Bengaluru, sometimes known as the Garden City of India and at other times, its IT Hub, has a temperate year round climate that engenders lush environs. It is also a major centre of IT corporations, such as IBM, Google and Microsoft. MG Road, upon which our 5 star hotel in Bengaluru can be found, is the central artery of the city. It also boasts great shopping options and restaurants within The Oberoi, Bengaluru.
