Lutyen's Bungalow

Homely rooms in the centre of things

Word to the wise: Most of the rooms face onto the gardens, but it's worth ensuring yours does when you make your reservation.
This mid-range, family-run establishment has been in operation for over 30 years, so guests will be in safe hands. Centrally located in the 'Heritage Zone', the colonial-era bungalow is within walking distance of Lodhi Gardens as well as the Safdarjung Tomb. It's not a fancy operation but rooms - all of which are ensuite - are air conditioned, comfortable and clean. Satellite TV and WiFi are available throughout the building.

Guests can breakfast in the lovely, bird-filled gardens and there's a swimming pool that'll be much appreciated after a day on Delhi's hot, dusty streets.
