"The entrance to this Moorish-Mogul hotel is all arches and sandstone columns, with 64 carved-stone fountains. Elsewhere, the design includes gold leaf, filigree mesh screens, and etched-glass chandeliers. All teak-floored rooms and suites have stunning, unobstructed views of the Taj Mahal, as well as hand-embroidered headboards. In some rooms, guests can dine on the balcony or in the private poolside pavilion. Try a milk and rose-petal bath or a Hungarian wrap at the Oberoi Spa. A selection of kebabs, lamb rogan josh, and traditional cottage cheese dumplings with saffron are on the menu at Esphahan. Editor's Pick: Gold List 2018"
