The best city hotels in Asia, according to GoTravelDaily readers, capture their destination’s culture and vibrant energy.
Asia is a land of extremes — superlatives like longest, tallest, largest, and busiest are often used to depict the myriad cities and attractions. However, among its many descriptors is also the word best: the continent is home to some of the world’s premier cities. Major metropolises like Chiang Mai, Tokyo, and Seoul are meccas for food, culture, and history, making GoTravelDaily’s 2022 list of best cities in the world. Consequently, Asia’s cities are lauded for their incredible hotels, with several landing on our World’s Best Awards’ 100 Best Hotels this year.
Every year for our World’s Best Awards survey, GoTravelDaily asks readers to weigh in on travel experiences globally — sharing their opinions on top hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, airlines, and more. Hotels, including safari lodges, were rated on their facilities, location, service, food, and overall value, with properties classified as city hotel, resort, or safari lodge based on their locations and amenities.
1. The Oberoi, New Delhi
The Oberoi, New Delhi, is not only the best city hotel in Asia but also one of the 100 best hotels globally, according to GoTravelDaily readers. This 220-room property is well-positioned next to a golf course and popular Delhi attractions such as the UNESCO-designated Humayun’s Tomb. Consequently, visitors enjoy both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, four restaurants (including one from chef Andrew Wong of Michelin two-star restaurant A. Wong in London), a patisserie, cigar lounge, spa, and warm Indian hospitality.
