Taj Krishna — the Banjara Hills address
Taj's Hyderabad flagship since 1987: 247 rooms and 14 suites on Road No. 1 in Banjara Hills, set in 14 acres of lawns, with the Gardenia venue that holds the city's biggest receptions. The hotel for meetings in the centre and for the occasion that needs a lawn.
Taj Krishna has been Hyderabad's business address since 1987, and the 14 acres of gardens on Road No. 1 are why it still is: a calm, low-rise hotel in the middle of Banjara Hills, with the corporate offices, the hospitals and the restaurants of the district around it, and the Gardenia — a 1,427 sq m venue that takes 1,300 — for the receptions the city holds here.
It suits executives with meetings in Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills or Somajiguda, who want the centre rather than the tech corridor; companies and families hosting an occasion — a conference dinner, a reception, a wedding guest block — that wants lawns rather than a ballroom only; and senior visitors for whom the Taj name is part of the welcome.
What it isn't: a HITEC City hotel. The tech district is 10 to 15 km west and 30 to 60 minutes at peak. If your week is at Mindspace or DLF Cybercity, stay there and come to Banjara Hills for dinner.
Road No. 1 is the spine of Banjara Hills, and the Taj Krishna sits on it beside its sister hotel, the Taj Deccan. The offices and hospitals of the district are minutes away; Punjagutta metro is a short drive; the airport is a 45-minute run on the PV Narasimha Rao Expressway.
Distances that matter
- Banjara Hills Road No. 1 and 2 offices: A few minutes
- Apollo Hospitals, Jubilee Hills / Care Hospitals, Banjara Hills: About 10 to 15 minutes
- Punjagutta metro (Red Line): About 10 minutes
- Begumpet / Somajiguda: About 15 to 20 minutes
- HITEC City: About 30 to 60 minutes, traffic depending
- Rajiv Gandhi International Airport: About 30 km — 45 to 60 minutes
Getting there
The hotel is on Road No. 1, Banjara Hills, with the Taj Deccan next door. From the airport, the PV Narasimha Rao Expressway brings you to Mehdipatnam and then up to Banjara Hills; we can arrange a hotel car with the booking.

The specific things we do for this hotel
- Occasions handled as one booking. For a reception, a conference dinner or a wedding guest block we quote the venue — Gardenia, the lawns or a ballroom — and the room block together, and manage the rooming list, so the organiser deals with one person.
- Centre-of-town trips planned around the roads. We confirm where your meetings are before suggesting this hotel: for Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills, Somajiguda or a hospital visit it's right; for HITEC City we'll tell you so and suggest the Westin or the Sheraton instead.
- GST invoicing done right. We take your company's legal name and GSTIN at booking so the invoice is issued correctly first time. At this rate level the stay falls in the 18% GST slab, which a GST-registered company can claim back.
- One person through the stay. A guest added to the block, a late checkout for an evening flight, an invoice to split between cost centres — you message one person who already knows the booking.

Taj Deccan
Taj's smaller, quieter hotel beside the Krishna — a notch lower in rate for an individual business stay.
Banjara Hills, about 2 km
Park Hyatt Hyderabad
The luxury choice on Road No. 2 when the stay is the occasion.
About 10 to 15 km west — 30 minutes on a quiet morning and up to an hour at peak. If your week is in the tech district, stay there; Taj Krishna is for meetings in the centre.
Yes — The Gardenia is about 1,427 sq m and takes up to 1,300 theatre-style or for a reception, and the lawns in the 14-acre gardens take more. It's the city's default for big occasions; we quote venue and rooms together.
About 30 km — typically 45 to 60 minutes via the PV Narasimha Rao Expressway, which runs almost directly from the airport to this side of the city.
Usually within about 5% for the same room type on the same date — sometimes a little higher, sometimes lower. What you get with us: a proper GST invoice, early check-in handled, and one person accountable for your stay.
Check-in is 2 PM and check-out is 12 noon. If you land early, tell us and we'll ask the hotel to hold a room from your landing time; if there's a charge we'll tell you before you confirm.
