Maybe not our brand style, but hours of fun to spin around in walls of #glitz

A welcome like this is going to our heads. We might be royalty. Ask for a tour of the just renovated Rajmahal Palace by @sujanluxury to see all 48 custom designed wallpapers. It's an oasis fit for a queen, even if just for dinner
