Where to Stay with Kids in Delhi
There is a myriad of options for accommodation in Delhi , ranging from small inns to luxurious hotels . There is a large guesthouse culture , essentially the equivalent of the international B & B . When booking , you can ’ t go wrong with the popular hotel brands ( and they are all here ). If you opt for a guesthouse which is often more economical and can offer a more authentic Delhi experience , you should do your research thoroughly , and if at all possible , get someone on the ground to validate its conditions . Here are are recommendations in each of those categories :
The Imperial Hotel
Heralded as one of the best hotels in Delhi , the Imperial Hotel represents the glory of the British Raj in Delhi . The hotel was built in 1911 when Delhi was declared the capital of India . The grounds are sprawling , the atmosphere grand , and the service top-notch . Janpath , the neighborhood in which the hotel is located is also one of the most colorful parts of Delhi , with some of the best street shopping in the city .
27 Jorbagh
A typical Delhi guest house with an intimate courtyard and spacious rooms , 27 Jorbagh is located in one of the nicest neighborhoods of Delhi , near Lodhi Gardens . I can vouch for the quality of Jorbagh myself , having stayed there during my wedding in 2005 !
