don't know about fleecing & exorbitant but when we took a business trip to the Radisson in Delhi last year, the sevice was amazing.
These hotels like most hotels in the India were grossly overpriced. For about US $100 - we get a great room in the US with breakfast included in almost every city, but Taj and Oberoi despite being in a poor country with cheap labor charged some $500 - thanks to the loot the congress permit raj allowed them. These people had almost 100% occupancy because government ministers got bribed and did n't give land for others to build hotels. Almost same with other Indian products like cars and scooters.
