I stayed in this hotel for 2 days, and I am overall very happy with this hotel. It's the best hotel I have stayed in that locality (trust me I have tried many). The room was very clean, but the linens could have been better. The bathroom had both hot and cold water, but the washbasin had a crooked faucet. Hotel staff were very polite and helpful. I was very happily surprised when they arranged to help me buy a new SIM card for me. Breakfast was extremely good, and they were very neatly arranged and taken care of whenever they needed attention (never had this good coffee in India recently). The only thing that really sucked was their WiFi in my room. It was slow and disconnected very frequently, and didn't improve even after complaining.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would gladly return. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and everything worked perfectly — reliable WiFi, consistent hot water, and complimentary drinking water in the room, which was much appreciated.

The service truly stood out. The team was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. They arranged an airport pickup, allowed me to check in early after my arrival, and even helped organize a local SIM card, which made settling in incredibly easy. They clearly know how to welcome both foreigners and locals alike, making everyone feel comfortable and at home.

Breakfast on the rooftop was a highlight — a lovely setting to start the day.

Overall, a smooth, comfortable, and well-managed stay with excellent hospitality. Highly recommended.

The cleanliness of the rooms has a lot to improve, dust, hair and lint in every corner, hard water covering the entire shower glass, not very clean toilets or showers, rust and sediment in shower head and sink, AC and fridge were not working, I asked for ice and I had to pay for the ice and tip the guys who went and bought it. They are servicial people but expect a bill at the end for every little thing, example: one airport transfer is included but not the parking at the airport ( that’ll show up in your check-out bill) ,water is complementary but only the tiny bottles if you ask for a bigger one will have to pay for it, is not about the money but being upfront about it.

We stayed in an executive room, which was decent for the price and generally clean. However, the room had a strong sewer-like odor that made the stay unpleasant. The towels and sheets were old - the towels were thin, and the sheets were rough and pilling. On a positive note, the free breakfast was quite good and helped make up for some of the shortcomings. Overall, not a terrible experience, but the room condition and smell definitely need improvement.

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL

Here are 7 reasons why:

1. The street outside is DANGEROUS. People will stop you and follow you as soon as you leave the building. Very far from the sights of Delhi.

2. Another family was given access to our room and walked in while we were sleeping. When we spoke to reception about this, they said they could only apologise but could not guarantee that other guests did not have access to our room.

3. The staff are always trying to profit off guests. One member of staff came in the lift with us and tried to sell us a SIM card. They followed us to our room despite us saying no repeatedly.

4. The tours are a scam. We were offered prices triple that which is available on get-your-guide for a tour of the Taj Mahal.

5. The hotel is generally stingy with resources. Guests are only given 500ml water per day and anything else is expensive (water is not included at breakfast).

6. Upon entering the room we noticed a strong smell of urine which the staff denied (perhaps they were used to it). The room was dirty when we arrived - my feet were caked in dirt after an hour.

7. The bathroom has bad drainage. The shower is not separate from the toilet area and floods even after short showers. Very slippery and dangerous. There were regular power-cuts every day.

I am confident the positive reviews on this site do not reflect the experience of most guests.

Everyone in the hotel was very helpful from check-in to check-out. Shuttle service was an important key factor for us, making it convenient and hassle free to and from the airport. There was someone who met us outside the airport. Complementary snacks and water were provided. Breakfast was delicious with an array of food to choose from and enjoy from the rooftop. Their kitchen is conveniently open 24 hours, satisfying your hunger at anytime with a lot of choices from their menu. Within walking distance there are many shops and places to eat. Despite the hustle and bustle outside, it was very comfortable and spacious in our room. Tuk Tuks were accessible to help us get around town. It was a cool experience! My mother and I were very happy with our stay. We thank everyone for making it memorable and of ease. If you’re looking for a place to stay, we highly recommend this hotel!

The actual hotel was great, cleanliness, staff and quality of hotel. But the area was not safe for tourists. This is not the hotels fault and they have 24 hr security guards, but i did feel quite trapped. You certainly cannot leave the hotel after dark and, even in the day, its difficult to walk down the street. It is best to go straight to a taxi from the hotel. They are waiting outside or the hotel can help you

Central down to earth Delhi…

Having only planned to stay here for one night this hotel was fine. Outside the main road was noisy and not so pretty but I knew that before I booked. In fairness to the hotel, the room benefitted from double, double glazing (yes), and any noise outside was greatly reduced inside & significantly. Nice large room, all the usual add ones including AC & fan as it was so so hot, good shower and nice hotel staff. Rooftop food and drinks available too!
It is clear that the area comes to life at night and there was tons of shops, stalls, local food eateries and the odd bar! Train station & Metro probably 1000 metres away, to allow you to easily get from the airport to this area for 60 rupees fixed. For what I paid it was a good stay.

The hotel was definitely not worth the price I paid, it probably rates more as a 1 or 2 star hotel at best. You wouldn’t wanna pay more than $5-10 a night for this hotel. The photos are highly deceptive and are misrepresentative of the actual condition.
I initially received a room that smelled like cigarettes and the AC wasn’t working so they promptly switched me to a different one. Unfortunately within an hour the AC stopped working and the room was filled with the smell of cigarettes again. They took some time to switch me to a different room in which the AC finally worked. The staff were very kind and accommodating at the time, however not very efficient as it took almost an hour to get a new room. In seeing the 3 different rooms however, I noticed all of them had very old amenities, some chipped/broken. There were stains on the floor and furniture. The linens smelled like bleach and a low quality detergent. Apart from the staff on my first day, the rest of the staff seemed rude and very inefficient. I asked for a bottle of water on my second day and they didn’t send it until I reminded them an hour later. On the final day they called and rudely asked me to checkout merely 5 min after the checkout time of 12PM. Then at checkout they charged me for the bottles of water (which I was entitled for free bottles per my Platinum/VIP access thru Expedia). I would not recommend it to anyone. You would much rather spend a bit more in a better hotel in a better area of the city.

Hotel was located on a busy street in Delhi. It wasn't quite as noisy as you might think. Room was quite outdated and repairs that done looked shoddy (bad tile grout in bathroom, incorrect size toilet seat for toilet, etc.). Breakfast was ok, reception was ok. Hotel charges for bottled water (the only time in a 3 week trip a hotel charged me). The water is undrinkable in Delhi, so you're kind of stuck unless you go buy your own.

Possibly the worst hotel we have ever stayed in.

Would really recommend against staying here - the hotel is in quite an inconvenient part of Delhi and doesn't feel particularly safe at night.

The room was not particularly clean at all and there were marks and crumbs in the bedsheets.

Our safe did not work properly and we had to ask twice for it to be unlocked so we could put our valuables in it.

We thought we would give this hotel a chance, however, by visiting the rooftop bar to see if we could enjoy anything about its location. We started to wonder why it took so long for our drinks to arrive only to witness one of the staff coming in with a bag of drinks from a local shop.

Don't bother dialling for reception as they won't pick up. The staff are asleep on the sofa's in the lobby (which I witnessed several times as I had to leave the room to ask about the safe/aircon).

Don't bother booking.

Take what we give or you are on your own!!

When we arrived at the hotel we had made the booking in, we were told there were no rooms and sent us to another hotel in the back alley. It was distressing that we had no control over what to do as it was already late in the night and we had traveled all day. The second hotel that we were forced to stay in -- the rooms were not very clean and the sheets were *×'^...and when we made some comments about it, they said they they will clean the room again...within 2 mins they said the room was cleaned...when we entered the room, we were breathless because they had sprayed ao much heavy smelly room freshner that we had to stand outside the room for 20 mins with fan on dull blast to air out the room. Never had such a distressing experience before with reservations with hotels.com, i will be more cautious booking with this website the next time!

Upon arriving to Delhi and getting to this hotel, we were informed our room had been booked to someone else (as was our friends' room). They let us know they had a sister hotel a block away we can stay at. After reading the reviews again, it looks like this is a common occurrence for them to channel clients to their new hotel. Their tactic being blatantly lying to clients. The alternate hotel looked to be the same quality, but that should not be taken as a good thing. I want to express that this hotel looks NOTHING like the photos. It's dirty, has terrible air ventilation, and the rooms are misrepresented.

Highly do not recommend staying in this hotel or their sister hotel (The Prime Balaji). It's misrepresented on the images and just a poorly-kept hotel. I'm fairly certain most of the reviews are fake, as hundreds have been completed within the same month.
