taj krishna
"A stepped roof- with small terrace gardens on each step- defines the Taj Krishna at Hyderabad"
The Taj Krishna hotel, built on nine acres of picturesque, sloping land, is defined by its stepped, terraced roof, undulating ‘chajjas’ and lavish lobby with a sweeping central staircase
Keeping in sync with the Hyderabad tradition of segregating the dining room from the living rooms, all the restaurants and dining areas maintain a discreet distance from the rooms. A corridor - across a scenic garden with a cascading waterfall – leads the guests to the restaurants, each with their own gardens.
Two identical Mughal gardens flanked by a pond are designed to add to the symmetric splendor. A fountain in the centre is girdled by flower beds, floral pathways and tracts of green.
A waterfall, warbling songbirds and chirping crickets have ensured a peaceful haven for visitors to this timeless hotel.
