Synopsis

Asia's Legendary Hotels features some of the region's most historically significant hotels, from the Taj Mahal in India to the Raffles Hotel in Singapore to the Railway Hotel in Hua Hin. The result is a showcase of unique establishments where the past is not only present, but celebrated-and where one can discover what it was like in the golden age of travel--when a hotel was more than merely a collection of rooms and a restaurant or two.
