Hotel Tara Palace, Chandni Chowk

Still good. I’ve been coming here for over five years and I’m still happy to return.

Great location for Old Delhi Great staff Great value for money

I chose this hotel for its location! In the heart of the Old city of Delhi, a stone's throw away from Chandni Chowk. From here you can walk all over Old delhi, and then take tuk tuks to just about anywhere. There are at least eight markets right next to the tara palace location, all of them fascinating, all of them full of life, full of all sorts of people and trades and stalls -- all full of the REAL India! The restaurant blew me over! I didn't expect anything from the hotel food -- but the restaurant menu is very varied, for all tastes, and the food -- I tried many different dishes and they were all excellent! Well prepared and presented, tasty and copious! Five stars for the restaurant! Only small objection: the breakfast is excellent if you want ( as I did) Indian fare. But if you are one of those picky tourists who can't be without a "continental" or "American" (sic) breakfast -- well, it's not that good. Bring your own Chocolate coated Sugar bombs from wherever -- you won' (luckily) find any in Delhi! I definitely recommend this hotel; great value for money, and really , the best is its location!

Overall I deeply enjoyed my stay here and would certainly return when I'm again in the area. The only downside was the noise level coming from guests talking in the hallways. Otherwise clean, comfortable, and convenient for walking to the Red Fort and Chandni Chowk. The winning element, however, was the rooftop. Killer views of Jama Masjid, the Red Fort and much else while enjoying a tea or a meal. Service was excellent - in fact the staff were all extremely helpful, quick and courteous. Approaching the hotel can be a bit daunting. A rickshaw or bike cab from Chandni Chowk is the best way to reach the hotel. They drop you at the entrance to a narrow alley with a sign for the hotel above it. Keep walking down the alley until you reach green marble steps on your left. For those traveling with much luggage this may not be a great option. Otherwise a fantastic location for being able to stop by during the day for dropping off purchases or taking a tea break. I'll be back!

Once you were inside the hotel things were fine. The area reminds me of Blade Runner

As always, the Hotel Tara Palace was an inviting refuge from the hectic life of Old Delhi. The staff are still friendly and helpful. The food is still great. And I will return whenever I pass through Delhi!

Not easy to find. Looks like a unsafe area, but it is safe. Not so friendly dogs around the entrance to the Hotel.

Tara Palace is tucked away on a quiet alley, walking distance to Red Fort, and many temples, the Old Delhi, spice markets and bazaars. Internet was fast, Staff could not be more attentive , included Indian breakfast was a treat.

Hotel Tara Palace is my go-to hotel in Old Delhi. They have upgraded their free wifi to a high standard. Their staff is as helpful as always. I always look forward to visiting.

super dirty hotel. I didn't even want to sleep on that bed. ugly neighborhood too. If you are going to India don't stay here on your first night.
