Staying in New Delhi

New Delhi is a separate city from Gurugram, 30 km northeast, and this shortlist spans both. In the capital, hotels cluster around Mahipalpur and in the southern suburbs of Greater Kailash and East of Kailash; the rest sit in Gurugram's DLF phases, along National Highway 8, or on Moulsari Avenue and Siris Road. Guests in the Delhi properties are close to Lutyens' Delhi, Khan Market and Connaught Place, while the Gurugram addresses line up with Cyber City and Udyog Vihar meetings.

Couples on a short heritage break get the most from the New Delhi rooms, with India Gate, Humayun's Tomb and the Khan Market lanes within reach. Families will find larger layouts at the Gurugram properties that list family rooms. Business travellers should split their stay: 2-3 nights in Gurugram for Cyber City, then 1-2 nights in central Delhi for embassy or ministry appointments. The top-rated pick here is The Royal Oakes, while Hotel Grand Tashree carries the most reviews.

Where to stay in New Delhi

Mahipalpur

Mahipalpur is the airport-side neighbourhood, useful for a one-night pre-flight stay or an early departure. Hotel Devrana sits near Bank of Baroda and Hotel Red Blu in the village itself. It is a transit zone rather than a sightseeing base, so plan on a taxi or the airport line for central Delhi.

Our picks here: Hotel Devrana · Hotel Red Blu

East of Kailash

The Royal Oakes sits at 198 12A East of Kailash, a south Delhi residential pocket. It is one of the capital's quieter addresses, away from the Lutyens' bungalow belt, which goes dark by 10pm. Greater Kailash is nearby, so this suits travellers who want south Delhi rather than the Connaught Place crowds.

Our picks here: The Royal Oakes

Greater Kailash

Treebo Cabana sits at R23 Greater Kailash I, in a south Delhi district of markets and residential blocks. It is a practical base for south Delhi appointments, at 4.4 out of 5 from 145 reviews, and a taxi ride from the heritage circuit around India Gate and Humayun's Tomb.

Our picks here: Treebo Cabana

DLF Phase 3

FabHotel Rivlet Residency sits on Siris Road in DLF Phase 3, Gurugram, the same phase as the DLF Cyber City office belt. It lists family rooms, air conditioning, free wifi and a 24-hour front desk, and rates 4.6 from 271 reviews, making it a straightforward business stay.

Plan your stay

Getting there and around

New Delhi sits 30 km northeast of Gurugram, and the two are separate cities. The Yellow Line metro is more reliable, at 50-70 minutes, than a cab during peak hours. The Airport Express Line covers Aerocity to central Delhi in 20-25 minutes. Leaving Gurugram by 8am avoids the worst of the NH-48 traffic, and return trips after 7pm add 20-30 minutes as evening traffic builds.

When to go

October to February is the window for the capital's heritage circuit. A walk from India Gate west along Rajpath, past Vijay Chowk and into Connaught Place, is best at 4-6pm in those months. Skip April to September afternoons for heat; there is little shade until Connaught Place's colonnades. Evening life is liveliest around Khan Market's lanes, busy at 9pm, while Lutyens' Delhi is silent by 10pm.
