Taj Residency

Frommer's Review

This is the best hotel in town, catering to Aurangabad's high society crowd as well as to business and leisure travelers. A brand-new wing with 24 deluxe rooms opened in 2005, so ask for a room there. Located away from the center, the tranquil retreat is surrounded by verdant gardens overlooked or accessed by guest rooms; ground-floor patios also have swings. Don't expect the type of ultra-luxurious decor you'll find in major city hotels (the mattresses are foam and the carpeting slightly tatty in places), but accommodations are reasonably spacious, with teak furniture, Mughal arch-shaped mirrors, and miniature paintings on the walls. Ask for one of the corner units (no. 201 or 221) -- these have extra balcony space. Suites, which include all meals, are large and plush and have wonderful private terraces.
