Travel: HOTEL JEWEL PALACE @ KAROL BAGH, DELHI


The hotel front

While at Delhi, my daughter and I stayed at Hotel Jewel Palace at Karol Bagh. Luckily for me, it is not very far from New Delhi station. While the cab-driver was keen on charging me a bomb, I persuaded him to accept just half the fare.

Hotel Jewel Palace is a neat and comfortable hotel in the heart of the city and quite affordable. You can find details of tariff on their website mentioned below. The package includes bed and breakfast. What I really appreciated was the heater in the bedroom and piping hot water in the bathroom. I don’t think I would have survived this trip without those.

The sofas with a coffee table and the corner table with a lamp

The service is excellent with the waiters doing their best to please without hovering around to the point of irritation.

We enter a medium-sized lobby where they insist on seeing our identity proof. I believe an address proof is a must. I got away with using my Pan Card, but one might need to get used to travelling with their passport even within India, it looks like.

Our room was on the first floor and it was quite big by city standards. I was thoroughly pleased with the huge single beds and wardrobe facilities. There were also a number of big mirrors in the room. There were a number of lights to make the room quite bright and welcoming.

Totally comfy
One corner was taken by a twin-seater and triple-seater sofas placed adjacent to each other with a large coffee table in front of them. There was also a corner table.

Breakfast is usually served in the restaurant but can also be ordered in the room.

All in all, it was perfect for my short holiday in the capital and made for a great temporary home.

Food Review of the hotel will follow…

    The mention of Ramanuajan Mess creates nostalgia of my Delhi/Karol Bagh days. The homely pongal-vada in the morning & keera vada/dosa are/were bachelor's varaprasadams. The faith the restaurant management used to have on regular customers was amazing. We used to have our fill & just pay the amount directly at the galla, based on our own calculation. No questions asked or crosscheck with the waiters.

    Some of the best hotels are located in Budget Hotels in Delhi, but it seems impossible to find a hotel room at the last minute in cheap price. Don’t worry, I am your guide to book a hotel in Delhi. The Hotel Arpit Palace is of the leading Budget Hotels in Central Delhi.
