This hotel is without doubt the worst place I stayed whilst in India - no hot water, and the room, bed and bathroom were all dirty. Another guest had money stolen from the safe whilst we were there, and we had a member of staff barge into our room without knocking whilst we were getting dressed for no reason. I was really glad to leave!

Booked this hotel for a trip to Delhi through Expedia, do not believe what Expedia says about it. There is no pool, they will direct you to a nearby Public Pool, the sauna and steam room could not be located either...
Although the rooms were advertised as suites the beds were only 6ft long (short for a European), and the rooms were of average standard- one of the two rooms we had had no window, and the a/c in both was very noisy. My bed had some sort of insects in it and I woke up with bites each morning. Bathrooms were ok, although hot and cold water was sporadic.
The worst thing about the hotel however is the management, the two who staff the front-desk (one older guy, and a younger guy with glasses) were rude, obnoxious and grasping for any opportunity to make 10 Rs. more. On my check-in I was ignored, and the reception was generally unwelcoming. The hotel had no record of my reservation, although this could be Expedia's fault. The complimentary breakfast (in the reservation) was only grudgingly given following some discussion with the management.
If you do stay there be warned that the map on their website is not very accurate and is difficult for taxis to find.

  • Liked — Location was convinient
  • Disliked — The management, they destroy the hotel

I strongly advice against staying here. The rooms were very basic given the cost. There was no hot water for the entire duration of our stay, despite staff claiming on several occasions that it would be fixed. They were also quite aggressive in trying to sell us an overpriced tour. We weren't particularly worried by this at the time and paid by credit card when we left only to discover when we got home that they had processed the payment twice!!

The hotel is clean, and the staff extremely friendly. Rooms are simple but quiet, and shower was quite good. Interesting location, though print out map and make sure you have the telephone number as some of my taxi drivers had trouble finding it (there are hundreds of hotels in this area).

I found Hotel Rahul Palace by luck through hotels.com. I was glad that it is located on the same street as many other hotels in a busy market district. The moment I arrived my luggage was delivered from the taxi into the lobby. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful from the moment I checked-in until I the day I checked-out. It was clean and well-kept. The front desk agents provided me with detailed information on how to get around the city. To my surprise not a lot of guests utilized the roof top restaurant. I found their selection of American and Indian food to be very affordable and tasty. Although internet was available for guest use, only one was working inconstantly. My only suggestion for the hotel is to provide more reliable computers. Overall, my stay was pleasant.
