In India there is no official classification for hotels, so this is why in this section we will try to explain you our opinion on them. We classify the hotels in the following categories:
3* Hotels: Basic but good hotels. This is our cheapest option. Each room has its own washroom. This option is similar to the 1 or 2 stars’ hotel in Europe.
4* Hotels: This is the recommended option for those who do not want to face any bad surprises and that would like to stay in a hotel which offers sufficient services and moderate luxury. This option is the equivalent to the 3* hotels in Europe.
5* Hotels: According to the European classification of hotels, these ones would correspond to the 4* hotels. We find these hotels very good for both the location and the quality/price ratio. These type of accommodation guarantee services and facilities more than appropriate.
Palace Hotels: Chains such as Taj (not available in all the cities) or Oberoi are the best examples belonging to this category. It entails a consistent economic difference compared to the 5* Hotels and in some cases they are situated quite far from the city-centres.
Nevertheless, if Luxury and Excellent Services is what you are looking for, these Hotels will definitely assure you comfort and Asian elegance.
Heritage: Belonging to this category are the hotels that will give you the experience of the real India. These hotels are decorated in a traditional Indian style. They exist in any kind of luxury and price range, for which you will generally pay more for the experience rather than the facilities and the services.
The heritage hotels can be divided into two categories: one more affordable and one more luxurious. The first type corresponds to the 4* hotels and the second one is closer to the palaces concerning the price and luxury.
Triple rooms in India are practically nonexistent. These type of rooms are the same size as the double ones with an extra bed. Hotels will not provide you any reduction or discount, so in some cases we recommend booking a double room plus one single room. Also, in some chains of hotels, mainly the 5 * and the Luxury ones do not have triple rooms.
