Various Hotels: An Evening of Luxury
Although we couldn't afford to stay at five-star hotels, treating ourselves to a drink or meal at the same places was within our range. This type of evening would typically be out of our budgets at home, so we made the most of it. Every few days, we would splurge on a special evening at a fancy hotel, being sure to take our time to enjoy and explore the gardens, patios and public spaces. There are some exquisite hotels in India and this is one way to get a peek inside, as well as to relax and treat yourself to something special. Fancy clothing isn't required, but even if you're backpacking, there's no excuse to not be clean and tidy.
