The location was okay. First room was gloomy and the linen not very clean, but after we left to Haridhwar for 1 night, we came back to a much better room. Staff went out of their way to borrow a hairdryer for me, so I was impressed by that. Did not enjoy being forced to have breakfast in your bedroom though, apparently that is the only option. But overall, an okay stay.

Historical Traveller Reviews of Grand Park Inn Hotel
An oasis of calm in frantic city!
from EeyoreCumbriaUK
Stayed at the Hotel Grand Park Inn in January this year. The staff and the owner/manager were lovely - especially the manager who allowed us to use his computer for free to do an on-line check in at the airport! He arranged for us to be taken to restaurants and collected later but did not charge - we just tipped the driver.
The rooms were very clean, breakfast adequate although the toast comes already buttered and wrapped in foil which makes it extremely soggy!! I requested mine to be left unwrapped which was much better.
The Hotel is in a strange part of Delhi - lots of motor shops, motor bikes etc (not forgetting our omnipresent bovine friends!).
Tuk tuks into the centre of Delhi or to the extremely spotlessly clean metro were inexpensive. The markets are wonderful, people very kind and friendly everywhere it seemed and at no time did we feel threatened when in Delhi.
Once you get over the initial culture shock, India is a lovely place to visit and this hotel is great as an escape from the frantic hussle and bussle of the city - extremely cheap too - £125:00 for four nights B&B for two of us including transport to the airport about 50minutes drive away!

While searching a decent clean hotel to stay during our Delhi-Agra trip, I really did not know that, I have to spend lot of time in the web to find one for our budget. We wanted a very clean and decent hotel. After a lot of review study from different websites, finally me and my wife decided to call up Hotel, Grand Park Inn.
Got really good response for our call.
Till the moment we stepped into the allotted room, we were kind of tensed about not getting our expectations met. Our main concern was the cleanliness of the bathroom.
We were glad to see the clean bathroom.
Food was good.
Felt homely, calm and safe.
Room interiors were above average.
We did not have any major problem other than little bit of noisy A/C and had to call up reception every time we wanted hot water except morning hours.
Management need to train the staff on communication skills.

good idea
from Irina24
It was almost impossible to choose a reasonable place to stay in Delhi. Reading reviews left no hope. But this hotel was quite good after all.
location - not far from CP
manager - competent (very unusual)
rooms - quite big, newly renovated and literally spotless - highest mark for cleanliness!
breakfast area - too small, people have to wait
breakfast - rather poor
room service - quite good ( if you close your eyes on a bit of cheating)
Generally - practically best solution in that price range

The Grand Park Inn is a good clean hotel with great staff you can ask the manager to arrange a tour for you he does this with clean comfortable hotels with your own driver at a very reasonable price
The hotel is quite near the centre of Delhi in a safe area you can ask the hotel to arrange a pick up and drop off for you at the airport
The hotel is very good value for money I can recommend this hotel

no good
from 9india
we stayed 3 nights, but our experience was terrible. A lot of noise and the staff sometimes was insistent. the sheets weren't clean.
Not a Great Experience
from ZQKhan
I honestly view myself as a low-maintenance visitor, and I'm amenable to most circumstances. The Grand Park Inn is a very reasonably priced hotel in Delhi, and generally clean with good morning breakfast. But its location - Karol Bagh (the auto/motorcycle district on Delhi) is a less-than-nice location, despite its proximity to the subway. And the management is awful. My key complaints: (a) no driver from the airport although scheduled (plane was 1/2 hour delayed so driver left); (b) after day 2 (of 3), they move me to a sister hotel despite my request to stay; (c) they give me a room in the new hotel that has no out-facing window and is immediately adjacent to the kitchen, which is active and *really* loud for all hours except 2-6 am (so those are the hours I slept); and (d) they tell me in the morning I don't have a complementary breakfast (although I did at the first place), requiring me to speak to the manager who has me get the phone number for the manager at the other hotel (he actualy told me to go over there to talk to the manager at the other hotel rather than worry about it himself). There's more. And all this might seem a bit petty, but the frequent level of dishonest and disrespectful treatment really added up. I was very unhappy with the ongoing lies from the management. Overall, I'd rather have paid more for better treatment elsewhere.
Pluses and negatives
from orangutan2008
The room rate is cheap by Delhi standards, and the hotel is clean. Hot water can be problematic. On our first night, we were shifted to a nearby hotel (Blue Bell) because the Grand Park Inn was full. The elevator at the Blue Bell got stuck between two floors after a power outage, and we were in there for 15 mins with lots of people shouting outside and making my mother quite nervous. If you get shifted to other hotels, please do not use the elevators for your safety.
The area around the Grand Park Inn is not good. We got conned by a nearby optician store (Punjab Opticians) that the Grand Park Inn owner (Mr. Madan Pai) recommended, and the whole area seems unsafe for women at night for sure. A taxi driver nearby also tried to con us. Someone later told us that this area is shady.
I also recommend NOT purchasing the tour to Agra and Haridwar that Mr. Pai offers. Besides the high price in comparison to hiring private taxis, our driver (arranged for us by Mr. Pai) forcibly took us to a restaurant called the Maharajah Palace where he gets commission and other perks. We told him not to take us there on the way back from Agra, but he still went there and drove on the wrong side of the road in order to get there (other motorists were all staring at us incredulously, which rarely happens in India where the driving is crazy as it is)! Food at the Maharajah palace costs five times what is typical in Delhi. The driver also took us to a place called Little Taj in Agra which is entirely useless so that he could get a commission on our purchases. On top of all this, the driver asked us if we wanted to hire a pandit (priest) from him for our trip to Haridwar on the next day!!! The guide at the Taj who was also arranged by Mr. Pai kept pressuring us to have a professional take our photos.
Also, on the following day's tour to Haridwar that we purchased from Mr. Pai, if you can not tolerate cold, do not stay at the Khanna Palace (also owned by Mr. Pai). They have nonexistent or terrible heating and do not provide a personal room heater if needed. We ordered an extra bedsheet, and got a wet one.
Overall, the cleanliness and the relatively low cost of the hotel is a plus that is negated by all the negatives I listed above.

Clean and comfortable
from Rae_007
We were very impressed with our room at Hotel Grand Park Inn and especially the fact that the bathroom had a bath!
There wasn't much hot water and you had to call the reception to turn the hot water on and that took 10 mins to heat up. But that was fine and we got used to that.
The food was good and the service also.

Great stay in Grand Park Inn
from travelling_family07
We just returned from our first trip as a family (parents, 3 boys) to India. It is not easy or cheap to book a two rooms in at least reliable hotels. To book the hotels, I relied heavily on the reviews of other travellers and found them all very helpful. The Grand Park Inn was our in our first destination New Delhi and also our fourth stop, en route to Kolkata. It was a very pleasant and reliable experience. The hotel is really central located (just go out and take a taxi, it only takes you about 10 minutes to Connaught Place). What I
liked most is that you actually feel you are in India when you walk outside, the atmosphere is still a bit laid back with even the occassional cow walking by. It is central to most markets and there are very nice and clean restaurants nearby. The rooms were sparkling clean and service is immaculate, including some personal tourplanning. We will definitely stay there again.

We had a great Stay!
from photojc
We had a great stay in this hotel. Find the room and hotels is nicely maintained. Rooms are clean, service are excellent! Almost wasn't sure if the previous visitor was staying in the same hotel.
For 25USD a night, we had a suite with 3 beds. I guess is designed for a family? Room is large & clean, and the bathroom is clean and with good hot water supply. Sounds insulations can improve a bit as we can hear dogs barking throughout the night, though that didn't really bother us.
Manager was very helpful in advising us on where to go to find food, internet, and organise day tour for us to go to Agra or transport to airport. Overall find the staff very friendly and helpful. Though the reception desk tends to over rely on their boss, sometimes we find that every question goes back to this big boss who is very helpful! Hence, only problem is if the big man isn't there sometimes or is busy, you cannot get your answer quickly.
I agree the stuff can appear pushy for tips. We had 3 porters 'helping ' us with our two hand carry luggages! Though we did tip a bit (not every time), we find the staff deserves them as they really go out of their way to help us. For example, they went outside to look for beer for us after 10pm, because the kitchen was closed already, when we ordered room service! We also tried their bargain tasty dinner there and is great indeed!
Overall, we find this hotel at a great location (5-10mins walk from metro station, 2 stops from Connaught Place), and great value (as long as you don't expect 5 stars hotels for less than 25USD a night!) and good service. We will definitely go back again if we do visit Delhi again, just hope they will maintain their high standard, as this looks like a pretty new hotel to me, and I am hoping that's not the reason why they are so good now!
