Very bad location - you can get much better for cheaper elsewhere in the city. Beware being brought to the tourist office associated with the hotel, as they will try to sell you expensive package tours. Also if paying them, pay in cash as they charge 12.5% extra for credit cards!!!

Very nice and friendly staff, I felt very welcomed and safe. Was picked up at the airport on time and for the first time had a good time in Delhi, thanks to the hostel. I'm very happy with my choice and will definetly come back.

Almost impossible to find on your own (no signage and on a very small street) so get an airport/station pick up. There was also a great deal of pressure from hotel staff for (generally unearned) tips. We probably won't stay with them again.close

They lost interest when we didn't buy any of their 'tours' from their travel agency. Not nice people.close

This doesn't mean you are free from Indians' harassment on your rupies! Rooms are clean, with new furniture and silent fan and A/C (no hot shower though). Staff counter in the guesthouse is just in front of the rooms, so you can go to sleep and wake up with long and noisy hindi conversations. Staff from the guesthouse speak little English, although are very helpful. Administration staff invites you to have dinner with them, can arrange good drivers for day-tours in Delhi, but can be extremely pushy when trying to sell tour-packages. Airport pick-up didn't work with me (save extra 205 Rps for the pre-paid taxi). Head to this place if you are looking for a holyday in Kashmir, 'cause they'll surely insist you to go there!close

Friendly people and great atmosphere, they had a lot to give to the backpackers. Really nice to be invited to eat with them and take us out to party. They booked an awasome trip to us! We had a lot of fun. When we are comming back to India in some years we definitely will use the same travel...

We originally only planned to stay for one night but extended our stay to 3. The travel agency office associated with the hostel recommended a nice restaurant nearby, gave us a free lift to the airport, and they did not try to push any tour packages on us that we were not interested in taking. All in all an excellent experience and we recommend their service to anyone visiting Delhi interested in a nice, quiet stay in a central little neighborhood.close

It is an excellent hotel, they can arrange everything for your trip. Including an airport pickup, a car to Agra and Jaipur. An excellent service, I recommend it.

It is in a quiet part of the city, but right next to one of the main market areas, and very close to a subway line. The staff was really friendly, and offered us a Agra/Jaipur tour for much less than what we had paid at another place. Only strange thing was having to coordinate with them for return times at night (the inner gate was locked after a certain hour), but they were very easy to work with on it. would recommend.close

They did NOT provided a room key and put lots of people in the same room eventhough I booked a single room however they always locked their room. Their company, Travel Venture(India) or indiantourisminformation is a totally rip off. I can NEVER recommend them.
