Fina dagar i vackra Delhi!
Pros:

Bra område, fantastiskt läge, fina faciliteter samt mycket vänlig personal. Mycket prisvärt!

Restaurangen hade en mycket god fish curry ackompanjerat med levande musik!

Många möjligheter att sitta utomhus, både i solen o i skuggan. Dessutom fanns Delhis bästa godisaffär, med lösgodis, på plats o ställe!

Cons:

Rummet var stort men slitet

Warmth & Sunshine in the Delhi Summer 😊
Pros:

Without doubt, the warmth of the Taj Group and the staff always makes a big difference. Big shout out to Aastha, Tanuja, Emrul and Prakash Ji. We loved that Lodhi Garden could be accessed on foot, Khan market metro station is next door and CP is at a stone's throw!!

Cons:

The rooms could do with more ventilation, atleast in between guest stays

Pleasant hotel, location, and staff.
Pros:

Good location, walkable to Khan Market. Very pleasant and accommodating staff. I enjoyed my stay and would stay again. Comfortable room, bed, and linens.

Cons:

Nice property, just not up to 5-star standards. Rooms need a bit more upkeep to stay at a luxury level, replacement of old/deteriorated mirrors and fixtures in the bathroom.

Hotel with an aura but not that exceptional
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The hotel needs a very good revamp it is not that new or renewed.

Staff at the check in was very unattentive
Not professional as a 5 * hotel should be.

The room was rather outdated and smell of mould in the cupboard.

Un acceuil très chaleureux à l'hôtel Ambassador, comme à la maison...
Pros:

Pour le petit déjeuner il ne manquait que les pains au chocolat et les croissants et c'est parfait ;). Sinon le petit déjeuner était très riche, l'équipe note dès le deuxième jour vos habitudes, omelettes, jus frais, thé tout y est! J'ai adoré, le personnel est vraiment au petit soin.

Cons:

rien à signaler.
