Give it a miss
I stayed at this hotel for four nights. First of all this hotel cannot be qualified as a star hotel. The only reason I chose this hotel because all other hotels were full at that time in the Connaught place area and I had a business to do in that area. The exterior of this hotel building resembles that of a Bhoot Bangla and it looks as if the building is coming down or being demolished. The rooms are kind of small and badly ventilated. House keeping is worst and god knows if they really wash the blankets. You can clearly see terrace of an adjacent building and some construction work in progress for any room window. The staff is moody and sometimes rude. House keeping staff especially is rude. Room service was inconsistent. The whole hotel gives an eerie feeling and has the look of a Bhoot Bangla. Food is massively overpriced. And the food sucks. I would not go back to the hotel again.

As bad as everyone is claiming
i never realised that this hotel had so many bad reviews. I should have read them before booking the hotel. Well I had one nights stay in delhi and then had to go up north to Punjab. This was the nearest hotel to the delhi's old railway station. I can assure you that the hotel is as bad as everyone is claiming. But i was lucky i only had to stay there a night. The worst experience was ordering room service and finding an insect in my food. I would never stay there again in my life. 3 Star government approved. I wouldnt say its bread and breakfast standard.

This hotel lived up to every bad thing said about it.
I just returned from India and had the misfortune of staying at Hotel Marina. My room were dank with exposed wires in bathroom and electrical outlets. The whole place had a musty smell. The morning breakfast was an adventure. We had to ask the staff to wash to tables which still had food on them from the previous evening. The dishes and silverware were freqently dirty. To top all it off, the staff was not very friendly. This may not be the worst hotel but it comes close to it.

SHUT THIS HOTEL DOWN IMMEDIATELY
The most horrible lodging. Not even worth 1 star but they claimed it 4 star govt approved ?!!! The building is peeling, the room stinks, bath room extremely dirty, phone does not work let alone their claimed internet access. If we did not reached Delhi at midnight, we would have walked out immediately. Wonder how the hotel sites allow such place to be listed at all???

Shut this hotel down
Last Visit:November 2005 I stayed at this hotel as a last resort.I had to attend my friends wedding at very short notice.Reading the rating as a 3-4star hotel i went ahead without any reservations. Once reaching the hotel i was amased how run down the hotel was. Paint peeling off the walls.Greeted by very rude and moody staff. On arrival to my room I noticed I was given dirty bed linen that seemed to be soiled but with lord knows with what. My toilet was stained with urine. I found long black hairs in my bathtub.
