You need to spend entire day and go through the each times very slow in order to absorb the Nizami charm. The view of the city from Falaknama palace is mesmerizing.

I see a lot has been written about the overall experience and the royal treatment. I choose to specifically review the dining area of the Falaknuma Palace. Let me get straight to the point – this room has the longest dining table in the world that seats 101 guests at a time. Beautifully arranged chairs, not to mention The Nizam’s... More

The Taj Falaknuma is a blend of old-world regal charm and great food. The two restaurants Adaa (Indian) and Celeste (Continental) are wonderful to dine in and serve food that tastes great. Make sure to take a tour of the palace if you aren't staying. Worth a visit if you want to experience the grandeur of Hyderabad.

We loved the beautiful and large rooms, well-kept grounds, opulent breakfast options, and outstanding service. The palace itself has been beautifully restored.

A trip to Hyderabad wouldn't be complete without afternoon tea at The Taj Falaknuma Palace. This really is a unique experience. The Palace stands two thousand feet above the city, it is not only a 'Palace in the Sky' but a standing testimony to the famed lives and times of the Nizams of Hyderabad. Nowadays the Palace is owned by... More
