10. Laxmi Niwas Palace, Bikaner
The palace was closed off from the rest of world and was host to the most privileged of people in the social order. Today, it is a luxury hotel inviting guests to experience the opulence of the Bikaner Maharajas. Hand painted friezes and gold plated paintings are just some of the beautiful characters that lie behind the walls of the palace. Some say, architects like Lutyens and Baker were inspired by this mighty structure.

11. Kasmanda Palace, Mussoorie
The palace was built in 1836 but not for the accommodation of royals. It was a sanatorium for British forces and later a school. It was later bought over by the Kasmanda royal family who made it their summer home and then a palace hotel. They still own the property, and the memorabilia around will take you back in time.
