Although the hotel had communicated well prior to our arrival and were aware we’d be arriving late, our early morning check-in (around 4:00 AM) was not best handled. We pressed one of the two buzzers at the closed gate, and someone- likely the female owner from the upstairs apartment - answered quite gruffly, telling us, “Someone will come. Do not press the buzzer again.” After a long-haul flight, this was a disappointing and unwelcoming first impression. This process really needs clearer instructions or signage for guests arriving after hours. It was a deal breaker - but an improvement point. Breakfast was very basic—adequate at best. While the omelette and breads were fine, there’s definitely room for improvement in both variety and presentation. That said, they made an excellent milk coffee when asked! The pictures on booking.com paint à rosier picture than reality. It’s nice, but rough around the edges.

The location is fantastic - tucked away in Doctor’s Lane near Connaught Place, in what was apparently the former DPRK embassy! Despite being in the heart of Delhi, the area felt relatively calm and secluded. The gardens are beautifully maintained, adding a peaceful touch to the stay. The bed was huge and incredibly comfortable, and the shower had great pressure—a real bonus after long days out. A special mention must go to the staff member managing the property on behalf of the owners (who live upstairs). He was absolutely brilliant - super responsive, pleasant, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. He was also the one who eventually let us in on our first night. A real asset to the place! Also, a top tip for Delhi: use Uber. It’s incredibly cheap and efficient, and the app has a built-in PIN system that must be matched with your driver—excellent for safety and ease, especially if you don’t want to deal with cash.

The staff was great. Breakfast was really good and they cooked it quickly. The hot water worked well, so did the air conditioning.

The greenery is really nice. I would recommend avoiding room 4 with patio as it has a steel roof which is very noisy during rainy weather

The place is very pretty and cosy. The garden is beautiful and the staff was very helpful. The food is very good, especially the Aloo Paratha and cutlets in the morning. Nice location too, not too far from everything.

The bathroom/toilet is attached to the outside of the room so you have to walk to it via the balcony, which was not very convenient. Access by car is a bit weird in the early morning, there are some gates nearby which block access to the property until later in the day.

Good location, close to the city center by taxi/tuk tuk. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. They have a beautiful garden where you can get breakfast or relax away from the noise of Delhi.

Room 5, which I occupied, has a bathroom outside of the room, accessed via a private balcony. It was mentioned in the booking, but might not be everybody's cup of tea.

Close to Connaught Place but in a leafy calm street, a school building converted into a small bed and breakfast. Kind service, a simple but good breakfast served in the garden and a private patio for most rooms.

The location was convenient to transportation and attractions. The room was large with a decent bathroom. The breakfast was made fresh and was tasty. The manager was helpful in securing me a taxi when I left. Overall, an affordable, comfortable stay.

No possibility to have an early breakfast. The air conditioning was not working.

Well located in the city.

A calm oasis in leafy New Delhi. Former North Korean embassy turned chill home stay. we ordered food through Swiggy and also sampled the delicious breakfast. The former is dead easy if you’re not up to speed with Indian apps. Bed incredibly comfortable. Some of the best sleep I’ve ever had. Location really good to see all sights and for a simple trip to the airport (maybe 35-40 min Uber). Would recommend to literally everyone.

Our stay was too short to really appreciate the place, but the owner was very friendly and helpful, the room was spacious with small patio attached. Everything was spotless. We enjoyed the free fruit which we could take for our breakfast when we had to leave before 6AM.

There was nothing I disliked about the property. Some people may find the area at the other end of the street is too earthy but it’s India.

Quiet area with very nice little garden. Staff were helpful, breakfast was good, though with limited choices, room was large and small patio area was quiet and a relief from the hustle and bustle. A short tuk tuk ride to C.P for approximately 30-40 inr.

Not a viable walk to CP - rickshaw required A few local Indian cafes 5-10 min away but little else in the area

Large house with lovely garden Quiet street off Gole Market area. Spacious room with small veranda

It is more expensive than other places, although I did book fairly last minute and definitely worth the price for the knowledge that you are staying safe.

I just arrived in Delhi and it was the perfect first place to stay. Very peaceful and beautiful. Clean and tidy room, with a pretty outdoor patio. The guys who run it look after you very well and I had no issues at all. As the reviews say, a perfect place for women and solo travellers. Thank you ❤️

We would have taken advantage of a larger breakfast menu if it had been available

Our room was clean, fully equipped, comfortable and quiet. It was not difficult to reach from the Delhi Airport, taking the Airport Express train to Shivaji Stadium station, then a 15 minute walk to CP Villa. There is also easy access to the RK Ashram Metro station. Breakfast at CP Villa was fairly basic, but the hosts can recommend other dining options if that is your preference.

Really lovely little guest house with lovely staff, great rooms and a great breakfast, in a nice quiet neighbourhood in Delhi. The owner was very responsive and willing to help with all your enquiries

It was great nothing majorly wrong with it

The garden was really pretty! The staff were really nice and good location. It was quiet despite being in a very area! We found the guy who served breakfast (sorry didn’t catch his name) very helpful and enjoyed talking to the manager about our experience in India

This is a really lovely place to stay. Great location, friendly and helpful staff and a fantastic garden to decompress after a day on Delhi streets.

Strong smell in the bathroom, and room was a bit worn-down

Nice room with private patio located in a quiet district of New Delhi. The staff was friendly and very helpful to organize daily excursions to the main attractions of Delhi. Good wifi and hot water available without problems. Water and fresh fruits always available, and breakfast upon request very good, best paratha of our trip!
