Colonel’s Retreat

This was my second stay at the property. It is located in a quiet area and has clean, well appointed rooms. The staff is very welcoming and makes every effort to cater to your needs. There is no on-site restaurant but a limited kitchen which can whip up fairly decent snack or meal with notice, breakfast menu is limited but decent and served with attention and as much customisation as possible.

The room was very clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed and maintained, with all the amenities we needed inside the room for a comfortable stay. The rooftop dining area was a lovely surprise—peaceful and airy, and the food served was very homely. It was the perfect setting for a relaxed breakfast. We especially appreciated the attention to small details, like filtered water in glass bottles, sustainable practices, and the warm, personal touches throughout the property. The location is also convenient, with easy access to key parts of the city while still being peaceful and secure—particularly important as I was traveling with my daughter.

Staying at Colonel's Retreat was a treat indeed. The staff welcomed and pampered us from the moment we stepped in till we left. The whole hotel and room were very clean and beautifully furnished. The shower was strong with hot water. The breakfast and dinner were delicious and generous. The location is about 7 min walk to the Metro station. It is a direct line to the Red Fort. A big shout out to Pamood and Devender. They served and helped us through our entire stay. Highly recommended this hotel if you are in Delhi.

The place had a very homey feel to it and the decor was beautiful. Clean stay with daily housekeeping and the staff are very nice - always ready to help. We asked to store our luggage on our last day, get small change for the cab rides and other small requests and the team were very happy to assist us. The breakfast on the rooftop is also nice and simple with some varieties. The setting is beautiful with lots of beautiful flowers to take in the morning with sunlight. Location is also great, in a guarded area and close to major markets. Overall, great stay and I would return.

This property was like a home away from home during our time in Delhi. The staff were kind and helpful and our room was very comfortable. The hotel provided us with a transfer from the airport which was great as we arrived quite late. The breakfast was delicious each morning, especially the famous banana bread and the Bombay scrambled egg. Another nice touch was the complimentary dinner for one night and high tea every evening between 5-6pm. It was nice to have some chai tea and biscuits/ chocolate cake after exploring the city. Defence colony location was super handy and quiet- we were right beside the metro and there were grocery shops within a 5 minute walk away. Overall I highly recommend this place and would stay again if I come back to Delhi :)
