Reviews and Ratings
Upon checking in, the room had no modern amenities and had a musty smell but the staff quickly addressed this and cleaned our room. The room didn't quite match the pictures, but the service made up for it. The hotel's location is amazing, giving it a boutique feel and offering easy access to various attractions. The dining experience lacked variety, although the staff were helpful, making it a positive aspect overall.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with refreshed bathrooms and a working balcony overlooking the garden, more like a 3 to 4-star experience rather than a 5-star. The size of the room was good.
This hotel exudes the exquisite charm of a bygone era and is ideally located next to the vibrant Khan Market and Lodhi Gardens in Lutyens Delhi. The great staff at the front desk, housekeeping, and the vivacious breakfast crew led by Uma Ji and his spectacular team pamper you like royalty during breakfast. The rooms were okay, but the food was awesome, with some areas in bad condition on the 4th and 3rd floors.
The hotel has a convenient location near Khan Market and Khan Market metro, offering easy access to the city. The room was spacious and clean, though lacking in decor. The staff provided exceptional service throughout my stay, making it truly enjoyable. The dining experience was superb, offering delicious meals in a pleasant setting. However, the facilities could use some improvement to enhance the overall guest experience.
The hotel offers a nice stay with a few minor downsides. The rooms are overall pleasant but initially had a slight musty smell and dated carpet. The service is exceptional, with proactive and friendly staff. Its central location is a definite plus, though the dining experience could use some improvement.
I had a great time at the hotel! The rooms were excellent, spacious, and full service, although a bit noisy at times. The traditional cafe setup was cozy with wooden chairs and tables. The service was top-notch with really courteous staff, especially Mr Navraj Bhandari. The location couldn't be better, right next to Khan market, with plenty of dining options nearby. The dining experience had a lot of variety, although it felt a bit chaotic with slow service. Overall, a wonderful stay with some minor downsides.
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The rooms were spacious, well-appointed, and very clean, allowing me to enjoy the beautiful garden view while sipping tea and listening to the birds. The friendly staff ensured my comfort every day. The service was exceptional, although some facilities in the room needed checking. The location was convenient, offering easy access to shopping and tourist spots. The dining experience was excellent with a nice variety of Indian and non-Indian dishes. Overall, a great choice for a relaxing stay.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms are large, with wooden flooring and regal old-fashioned furniture, which adds charm. The open terrace is a nice touch, and it offers a spacious and quiet atmosphere. However, there was a strong smell of mold in the rooms, combined with a bad odor from the bathroom.
