The Oberoi Cecil we know of today was first built in 1902 as the Cecil Hotel, owned by Robert Hotz and his wife. Before that, the site was home to the humble Tendril Cottage, where Rudyard Kipling penned many of his works. It was also here that the Oberoi Hotels founder, Mohan Singh Oberoi, began the first steps of his journey to become one of India's most successful hoteliers. Just as how it was one of British India's famed hotels, the Oberoi Cecil of today maintains that level of prestige and quality. Guests can look forward to posh and pampered stays, amazing Indian and international cuisine, and immersive heritage experiences.
