Hotel Tara Palace - New Delhi

The Hotel Tara Palace is arguably the best location for anyone wanting an honest colourful taste of Old Delhi. Step out and walk to many tourist hotspots. We were picked up from the airport late evening and arrived at what seemed a scarry neighbourhood. I remember reading " be brave " sure enough we were escourted down a laneway to find a charming old […] building with attractive marbel flooring throughout and a lift to carry your luggage upstairs. We slept peacefully and in airconditioned comfort. While there are no hot bubble baths to be had, room service is good and the meals are good. If you want a view then climb the stairs to the roof top to see the Red Fort & Jama Masjid while you sip your morning chai tea. I will definately stay there again, there is too much to see.

There is not many hotels in Old Delhi, this hotel is one of the few that is situated in Old Delhi, and is a 5 minute walk to the red fort. The only problem with this hotel i found was the fact that there was no wifi in the room, to use wifi you have to use it at the reception area. This hotel gives you a complimentary breakfast which is good and overall […] it's value for money. Przeczytaj więcej

I recommend this hotel to anyone going to Delhi. It is quiet and clean and newly renovated. The location is perfect, 5 minutes from the Red Fort. The staff has been very nice. Really, no hesitation!

We booked one double and one triple room for two nights, and everything was ready when we arrived. The facilities were very basic, but that is what we were expecting. We wanted the location, and that was the best thing about the hotel - walking distance to the Red Fort, Jama Masjid, Karim's Cafe and Chandni Chowk!

Prawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

We picked Tara Palace because of the location which is great, within easy walking distance of the Mosque, the old city, and the Red Fort. (It is easy to get a tut-tut to other sightseeing areas but you need to negotiate). The hotel was clean and the room spotless. Shower worked well and water was hot and even though there was no shower curtain the water […] did not spritz everywhere. Staff very accommodating including arranging airport pickup. They gave us a 24 hr. phone number for emergencies. Breakfast was fine, not buffet but had several choices. We found the travel agent across the alley from the hotel was very helpful in planning our stay, making hotel bookings, arranging a driver for us, etc. We worked with Mubarak and he was pleasant, had good English, and was not pushy. The hotel put us in touch with him. The only negative I have is that the area around the hotel is not great, and the hotel itself is down a small alley so is hard to find at first. However, it is not an unsafe area, just an old city area. We found the room quiet and we feel the hotel is very good value for the money. Przeczytaj więcej

While located in the bustling and hectic Chandni Chowk, the stay at the Hotel Tara Palace provides a respite from the day's activities. There is easy access to the Red Fort and Jama Masjid and a few blocks away is a Metro station that connects you with the entire city. The staff and service were superb and extremely helpful with a first time visitor […] to India. And if you dine at their restaurant, try the vegetable biriyani. Przeczytaj więcej

As a budget hotel it did the job and was fairly central to all the sights,it was its position down an alleyway and overlooking a slum which let it down a bit,even though we knew about it beforehand.Staff were nice and friendly and airport collection worked well (would never have found the place without it),there is a good travel agent next door to arrange […] trips and onwards journeys.

Location is good if you can cope with Old Delhi. The hotel is about a 15minute walk to the nearest Metro station. Staff very helpful and the airport pick-up is worth the cost of the hotel room if you are arriving late at night. The Metro still doesn't run to the airport.

This hotel is a welcome respite from the heat and bustle of the streets. I was a woman traveling on my own and everyone at this hotel was most helpful. The surrounding area of old Delhi is not a problem, i was not hassled at all in fact i found it friendlier than other areas. The hotel is excellent value for money and for my first visit to Delhi was […] a great start. Przeczytaj więcej

We had worst experience of our life. We arrived Hotel on very Hot day. We provided ID (Passsport for my wife and daughter and Indian Tax ID card for me). This was not sufficient for the staff. Please note Airline and other Hotel in India accedpted this documents. They demanded my passport and Indian visa for all of us. We didn't bring this. They won't […] give us a room until we provide this. I have to call my nephew wo live 350 miles away to get his info. He went to bank ocker to get the info. I told the staff that info is coming by Email in 2+ hours. They won't give us a room unless we sign a piece of papaer which states that if info does not come in 2 hours then we have to empty the room and leave. I refused to sign. I spoke to Hotel owner Pradip Goel but he refused to do anything. Owner also was very rude. The front desk person Pawan was very rude to us. We requested to owner and Pawan to cancel our reservation due to this but they said we will be charged one night charges. The front desk didn't offer water or any drink. We sat for 3+ hours. Once document arrive they give us a room. Please note we stayed 3 nights at other Hotel and we had no issue. We literally got harassed by Hotel stadd and owner. No one should at this place. We lost complete day of our vacation due to this, Hotels.com must stop offering thisHotel to thir clients. We will never stay at this place and no one should stay at this place.. Przeczytaj więcej

We were pleasantly satisfied with the Tara Palace. The hotel is off of an alley near one of the markets, and the area looks a little rough (but this can be said for most of old Delhi). The hotel itself is very nice, well maintained and managed, and the staff were quick to help when asked. Our room was quite comfortable, and the restaurant serves simple […] veg fare but the food was fresh and well done. I would stay again. Przeczytaj więcej

All the reviews helped paint an accurate picture of this scuffed up gem. I am a 50 year old woman travelling alone - held on tight to my bag in the surrounding area, first time in India, picked up from the airport, big locks on the door- delicious breakfast I plan on going back thre for my last night in Delhi

Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

Staff is nice and helpful. The hotel is in a poor area, but a bit off to the side so allows to escape the madness. Make sure to send flight information to the hotel for pick up. We did not know to do that and ended up scrambling for a cab from the airport. Overall, for a first time traveler the place felt safe and good for an acclimation to India.

Tara Palace is a very clean, well maintained hotel and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. However, it is an oasis in the middle of a very shady neighborhood. It is located down a narrow alley off a bigger road, across from a garbage compound. I went with my boyfriend, who is 6 feet tall and a well built personal trainer, and even he didn't […] feel comfortable walking around the immediate surroundings.

You wouldn't expect this nice hotel to be in such a location. Located down a back alley of mad old Delhi, this hotel is clean, centrally located for Old Delhi tourist sights, good breakfast included, rooftop gives a great view of Old Delhi.

Prawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

The hotel staff was great and very accomodating. The food was ok if you like Indian food. I'm not a big fan and wished they had a bigger selection of western food, but what I had was good. The main problem is the entrance and the surrounding neighboorhood. You enter down a alley that is typical old Delhi. It's not very clean. In fact the whold area […] is Old Delhi and you'll see a lot of sights and smells that are not very pleasant. But once you get used to it...it may take a couple of days...it has a particular charm and flavor that you'll not find anywhere else. Chandi Chowk is just around the corner and you'll find a lot of bargain shopping at the local markets. Close to the Jama Masjid and Red Fort and only a walk away from the Metro. All in all it was a good experience and even though the hotel only has wi-fi in the lobby...they also have a computer there for guests to use... I thought it was a good deal for what I paid.

\we arrived at 3am and were promptly met by the free airport shuttle. If you've never been to India before and this is your first time, you may want to consider something closer to the more touristic area and visit Old Delhi versus stay there. On the other hand, we acclimated more quickly than maybe we would have otherwise. Very close to Red Fort, but […] far from other sites. Hotel has tour office next door and we were able to do a tour of the most important Delhi sites in two days with car and driver for about 1200 rupees/day. Not too bad, but you can also get to the main sites for around 100-200 rupees by tuk tuk. Przeczytaj więcej

The hotel is located in an alley full of street vendors etc and it is kind of scary, but once you walk in to the hotel, it is a completely different atmosphere.

A word of advise, if you are using their travel counter, try to get a good driver […] as almost all the drivers they gave took us to tourist traps!

Unless you're in search of opulent luxury, this is about as good as it gets. Staff -- particularly the front desk -- are very helpful. Place is very clean and comfortable.

The hotel is located in the heart of Old Delhi, easy walking distance to the Red Fort and Jama Masjid, and the Metro. The hotel is located down a small ally way in the bicycle district of Old Delhi. When we arrived around 1:00am in the morning it seamed very sketchy, but come daylight it really was not bad at all. We easily spend the day easily walking […] around Old Delhi, and to the close monuments, and the hotel is easy to find and get back to (once you know where it is). There is plenty of street food close by (and other food), and lots of activity and shopping in Old Delhi. The hotel is comprised of several rooms, the AC worked very well, and I can't tell you if the hot water worked because honestly it was so warm out side in mid June that a cool shower was very welcomed. Out of all the properties that we visited on our trip, this one was among the cleanest. The breakfast was also good, simple yet complete. The only issue was that they tried to claim that there were slippers in the room when we checked out that had gone missing. There were never any slippers, so I don't know if this was an honest mistake, or their attempt to get extra money out of us (but we never paid extra). If I ever come back to Delhi, I would consider staying here again. Przeczytaj więcej

Hotel Tara Palace is not in the greatest of locations (hidden in the alley way of a busy marketplace filled with low-middle class laborers...not a suitable place for a foreign woman to walk around at night), but it's truly an oasis inside. Spotless rooms with clean walls and linens, a well constructed bathroom and a comfortable bed with good pillows. […] Room service was prompt and friendly; the reception spoke good English and was very helpful. The food was good, the AC worked well and we had electricity during the whole visit (in March). For the price I paied it was a steal! Though the location wasn't particularly comfortable for a woman to walk around after dark, if you're in a pair it's so close to the metro (7 minute walk) and clean inside that it's well worth the compromise. I highly recommend the Palace for those trying to keep a tight budget while getting a quality staying experience. Przeczytaj więcej
