Passed on for generations like a precious jewel, the Taj Falaknuma Palace or ‘Mirror of the Sky’ was the residence of Nizam Mehboob Ali Khan. After ten years of sensitive restoration, the Taj has infused new life into this sixty room private palace to offer visitors a glimpse of the imperial lifestyle of the Nizams who governed the legendary city of Hyderabad. What was once the sole preserve of visiting royalty-King Edward VIII and the last Russian Tsar, Nicholas II; will soon be yours to discover. The palace offers a choice of 60 unique rooms and suites with 2 restaurants, an outdoor pool and the Jiva Spa, spread across 32 acres.
At Taj Falaknuma Palace, Luxury Rooms are glimpses of royalty, shaped by Italian marble flooring, valance curtains, colonial furniture, 310 TC Egyptian cotton linen sheets and Ploh bathrobes. All Mardana Wing bathrooms command a view of the city from a very exclusive, private vantage point and all Luxury Rooms face a Central Courtyard, which is green, lush and brimming with nostalgia. Get up close and personal with sheer opulence in rooms marked by rich fabrics, gleaming oak wood floors and hand-painted walls.
The Nizams of the past would wholeheartedly approve of the Palace Rooms in all their opulent glory. These rooms are about richness, beauty, perfection and luxury, all of which have been channelled through the medium of royalty. You can see the commitment to these ideals in the rich fabrics, gleaming oak wood floors, hand-painted walls and its literal reflection in the bathroom’s mirrored tiles.
The culinary experience at Taj Falaknuma Palace recreates the passionate relationship between monarchs and their cuisines. Inspired by centuries of indulgence, we will take a leaf out of those experiences that have captivated the Nizams and their distinguished guests. We will recreate and reinterpret tastes and traditions of a bygone era, while keeping contemporary palates in mind. If you're partial to your poison, then the Palace also has a staggering collection of the rarest whiskeys, single malts, luxury vodkas and cognacs, including Louis XIII, supplemented by an unrivaled selection of the finest handmade cigars from all over the world.
