Daily Pampering: India’s new ultra-luxury Maharaja train service

Travel through India just got a little more glamorous.

Earlier this week, India officially launched its most luxurious and expensive train service. The cost: a minimum $800 a night (the presidential suite will run you $2,500 a night, but for that price you get your carriage and private bathtub).

The new Maharaja train accommodates only 84 passengers, who each get their own suite complete with private bathrooms and plasma televisions. There are two restaurants serving Indian and Western food, a bar, card tables and an observation lounge on the train.

The new train service is part of a luxurious family including the Deccan Odyssey in western Maharashtra, the Palace on Wheels in Rajasthan and the Golden Chariot in southern Karnataka.
