I had a very comfortable stay at this hotel with good rooms and friendly staff. However, the room cleanliness was disappointing, with shabby conditions and dust everywhere. The location is convenient for reaching various embassies and other areas in Delhi.

The hotel's location near all embassies in Delhi is convenient. However, the room was so dirty and stinky, with cockroaches around, and the staff provided no service at all. The dining experience was good but slightly below par compared to other five-star hotels visited during the trip. The facilities were decent overall.

The hotel is centrally located in Delhi, making it convenient for reaching multiple embassies and major attractions. The rooms are large, clean, and comfortable, but there was some issue with dampness that required room change after repeated complaints. The staff were helpful in resolving the room issue, although there were some service lapses and lack of knowledge in certain areas. The dining options were limited but decent, and the facilities offered were satisfactory overall.

I found the hotel to be a decent choice for a last-minute booking. The rooms were of good size and overall quite comfortable, although not meeting the expectations of a 5-star hotel as they were all the same. The service was good overall, but there were issues with maintenance and a seemingly strong focus on receiving tips. The location was very convenient for my needs, set in a grand and luxurious area, although a bit far from residential spots. The dining experience had its ups and downs with a variety of food but potential seating struggles. Facilities were decent.

The hotel offers large rooms with a writing table, a king-size bed, and a shower, yet the options for in-room dining at night are limited. The traditional heritage wing feels empty but holds the charm it used to. The service is selective, with a focus on government guests, and while nosy at times, they did provide a complimentary drop-off to another hotel. The location is a key highlight for embassy purposes, central to major travel options. Dining fell short of expectations, but the facility did offer a nice atmosphere.

The hotel is a class above the others, offering clean and comfortable rooms with a lovely range of personal amenities. The service goes the extra mile with special requests, although the old mentality of seeking tips can be a downside. The location is very convenient for embassy visits but might not offer much privacy. The dining experience is superb with a variety of cuisines. The facilities are well-maintained and offer great value for money.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is very convenient for my needs, but the room was disappointing with its old and non-soundproof setup, giving off a musty odor. However, the service was friendly though a bit noisy at times, and the dining options were both fantastic and overcrowded.

The hotel definitely did not feel like a 5-star establishment. The rooms were not very clean, lacked basic amenities like bottled water and tea, had old furniture and faulty electric switches. The service, although friendly and attentive, fell short of a 5-star standard with missing amenities and uninformed staff. The location was fantastic for official work or embassy visits, but lacked information on available facilities. The dining experience was below expectations with limited varieties. However, the facilities were good overall.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a lovely range of personal amenities. The housekeeping staff can be noisy early in the morning, but overall, it's a good choice in New Delhi.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, though in need of renovation, offered a comfortable space with a good view of the Gardens. The unfriendly service, especially from the housekeeping staff, was a letdown. On the bright side, the location was strategic with an old-world charm, close to embassies and sightseeing spots. The dining experience was satisfactory with good variety, catering even to those who prefer milder flavors. The hotel's facilities were decent, and overall, it offered value for money.
