We have fallen in love with Nadesar Palace, one of the latest openings from Taj Hotels
Resorts & Palaces. With just 10 suites set in a palace in the heart of Varanasi, Nadesar is fit
for a modern Maharajah and has been meticulously restored to its former glory. The
‘boutique palace’ is nestled among mango orchards and jasmine fields, and it is a tranquil
oasis within the chaotic bustle of the ancient city of Varanasi and the holy Ganges river.
The kitchen serves up exquisite dishes fit for royalty and they’ve even managed to fit
in a dainty Jiva Spa with three treatment rooms and a yoga room.
