Beautiful ambiance
Pros:

Breakfast was amazing
Service was exceptional
Location was amazing

Cons:

The rooms are quite dark as there are no glass windows . Only shutters which open outwards which means they block the walkway . Hence the room is dark there is no common area or Lounge which is air conditioned to relax in so you are stuck in a dark room to relax .

. It was a safe and comfortable place to stay, and the food was also excellent.
Pros:

The traditional architecture and way of life have been carefully preserved.

Cons:

All was great. The only area that needs improvement is the toiletries provided by the hotel. The manufacturing/expiry dates should be clearly checked and updated.

Уникальный опыт
Pros:

Уникальный и аутентичный отель в Дели, мне кажется если ты едешь в Индию, надо оставаться именно в таких отелях, где все пропитано Индией и ее историей, этому зданию более 100 лет, и респект людям кто воссоздал её, так аккуратно и изящно они её отреставрировали что от красоты получаешь удовольствие

Cons:

Место расположения😑, отель находится за переулками, думаю если руководство отеля отреставрирует дорогу то есть проход до отеля и создаст удобства туристу который идет к ним с чемоданами, будет еще лучше, иначе, машина и рикша туда не заезжают и приходится идти по разбитым дорогам до отеля с чемоданами пешком

Pros:

Personale molto gentile e accogliente, bella struttura. Ristorante molto buono (prezzi alti).

Cons:

Struttura sopravvalutata, rapporto qualità prezzo e servizi non adeguato, posizione nella old delhi in un quartiere locale degradato. Siamo stati messi nella struttura golden haveli(a più di 50 metri dalla struttura principale), per tutti i servizi (compresa la colazione) era necessario uscire per poter accedere alla struttura principale, questo non è stato indicato in fase di prenotazione. Camere belle ma molto piccole.

Haveli Dharampura is an oasis and sanctuary in Old Delhi
Pros:

Whenever I am in Delhi, I try to visit Old Delhi, taking any family and friends along too. And when exploring the Red Fort, Chandni Chowk and the lanes full of wedding finery, silver jewellery, stationery etc the Haveli Dharampura is the oasis in the desert, the calm in the storm. It is so good to slip in through the great wooden doors to a courtyard full of charm and the AC dining room beyond. Good welcome, good food and drink, good ambience. Thank you to everyone at the Haveli for your wonderful service 🙏

Beautiful hotel in a not so beautiful area.
Pros:

Lovely and generous staff, good food and worthy make-over to this heritage site. Rooms were spacious, clean and provided reliable AC.

Cons:

Unfortunately the location of the hotel was less favorable, the area was quite dirty and unpleasant, with no shops or restaurants available. We were also unable to drive up to the front door, but staff were kind enough to pick us up by main road and bring our luggage to the hotel.
