The Town & Country Hotel Awards: The Best New Hotels in the World 2018!
India Beat’s Bertie Dyer, ‘whose day job it is to design the best travel itineraries out there’ nominated The Oberoi Sukhvilas and the Taj Exotica Resort Andaman Islands for this coveted recognition.
Congratulations to The Oberoi Sukhvilas:
A spectacular spa-hotel in Chandigarh surrounded by 8,000 acres of protected forest at the foot of the Himalayas, with hammams, plunge pools, and saunas unrivaled in India. It’s the best place to unwind after exploring the modernist architectural treasures of the city designed by Le Corbusier.
Wow Factor: The ultraluxurious Kohinoor Villa, which features a private pool, gardens, and your own personal butler.

Congratulations to the Taj Exotica Resort Andaman Islands:
Surrounded by rainforest and situated on Radhanagar Beach (which is perennially named one of the best in the world), these eco-residences are a modern twist on local tribal architecture. Naturalists will lead you on nighttime kayak tours of the nearby mangroves and on daylight treks to a nature reserve.
Wow Factor: Snorkel straight off the beach outside your room, above some of the most incredible coral reefs on earth.
