## About the hotel
Taj Falaknuma Palace was built in 1893 by Nawab Sir Viqar-ul-Umra as a private residence before passing to the Nizam of Hyderabad, who used it to host royal guests including King George V and Tsar Nicholas II. After falling into disuse, it was restored over a decade under the stewardship of Princess Esra, former wife of the last Nizam, and reopened on the hilltop above the city as a hotel. It earns its place as one of India's most complete palace-hotel restorations, still delivering guests by horse-drawn carriage on arrival.
