New enough. Long enough. QPQ done. NPOV observed. All paras cited. Earwig etc found no close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations or plagiarism. Hooks are interesting enough. I prefer ALT0, but the cited source makes no mention of the hotel having been "five-star". However, the article does later state, "The Government of India planned to redevelop the building into a five-star hotel", so one can infer it was not "five-star". I have trimmed "five-star" from the hook. Uncertain as to whether this 1965-1969 image is suitably licensed for the main page, as I am not an expert on image licensing, but this is only an issue if it becomes a picture hook, so that issue may be moot.
