History
The Last Nizam built the Hyderabad House for his Delhi visits.
Edwin Lutyens, The Architect Hyderabad House was designed by Edwin Lutyens,the principal architect of New Delhi, as a residence for the Nizam of the erstwhile kingdom of Hyderabad. The need for a residence in Delhi arose because the most important traditional rulers (maharajas) of Indian states were inducted in 1919 into a Chamber of Princes and, therefore, had to come to Delhi to attend the Chamber's meetings. After 1947, when India got independence, the building was taken over by the Government and, until the early 1990’s, served as a state guesthouse for visiting foreign dignitaries.

The need for a residence in Delhi arose because the most important traditional rulers (maharajas) of Indian states were inducted in 1919 into a Chamber of Princes and, therefore, had to come to Delhi to attend the Chamber's meetings. The Nizam’s sons disliked the building, finding it too western in style for their taste. Consequently, the building was seldom used. After independence, the building was taken over by the Government and, until the early 1990’s, served as a state guesthouse for visiting foreign dignitaries.
