The Lalit New Delhi

The breakfast buffet was horrible absolutely terrible! There wasn’t a single piece of chicken, and 98% of the food was Indian dishes. We saw so many foreigners walking around the buffet just staring at the food, not knowing what to eat. What’s shocking is that when we ordered from their restaurant, the food was expensive but truly delicious! So how can the buffet be so bad while the restaurant food is amazing? It really feels like they’re deliberately making the buffet awful so people don’t eat it. On top of that, the rooms were run down and horrible definitely not worth the price. The only good thing was the staff, who were kind and polite. But overall, this place was a big disappointment. Never coming back again!

The Lalit use to be a great hotel . It is looking a bit tired and scruffy . Breakfast offering was poor . Limited fruits / make your own instant coffee . Chai served in coffee mugs

Excellent stay at the Lalit, we always stay here as it's conveniently located. Staff are very attentive and respectful. Special thanks to Udit for looking after us during our stay.

The hotel is a little bit aged but well maintained. The breakfast is good with different selection. Easy to access some major spots in New Delhi. Good value for a short stay here!

I had a truly wonderful stay at The Lalit Hotel in New Delhi. From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making me feel right at home. The room was spacious, elegantly designed, and equipped with all the modern amenities. The hotel's restaurants offered a fantastic selection of food, with exceptional service throughout. The location was also ideal, offering easy access to key attractions in the city. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend The Lalit to anyone visiting New Delhi.

I stayed at this hotel for two separate nights because I did the golden triangle tour in India. The first night I felt more appreciated as a guest and was able to rest well after Travel. The second day was on Republic Day and I just feel the employees working were a little bit jaded. The exception is the bell desk which held my bags for five days during my golden triangle tour. Much appreciated. The first night I stayed through another app on WeChat and was very impressed with the decor and arrangement of the hotel. I was able to witness an Indian wedding with some music outside. The ATM is located in the financial building next to the hotel. For Republic Day, the city surrounding the hotel still had lots happening and worthy of photos. The restaurant service in the Indian restaurant was a little disorganized and took a long time. The salmon was delicious, kudos to chef. The view was not as good as the first night, but I still enjoyed the room itself as the sunrise was better for photo. The room service is exceptional.  I’m not sure if it was because it was dry day and holiday or not, but I feel there wasn’t as much enthusiasm from the employees as the first night.  By room phone, an employee told me to go to the Wine store because they were open and selling on holiday, and a random taxi took me to a scarf shop instead from their lobby taxi line. That was the only disappointment because I still had to pay the taxi to take me back to the hotel after being told that the employee who told me to go to the wine store was incorrect. This was concierge. Otherwise, I feel this hotel is the most affordable, considering the area of the government and embassy. I was told this is a five star hotel and feel that the area is generally safe and clean compared to other parts of the city or beyond the Delhi toll gate. Even though the air quality was pretty high, I was able to get some good photos on the second visit from the room view.  There is a really nice Japanese restaurant in there, and breakfast was good. I slept well regardless. Beautiful hotel with art displays on one of the floors.
