Radisson Blu Marina Hotel Connaught Place

Nice sanctuary amid the hustle and bustle of CP. Food is good, and the room is well-equipped and clean. My room was a bit small, but for one person it was adequate. Complimentary WiFi was very nice, and it worked well. Enjoyed the balcony off the room.

Gataway to New Delhi and an a most complet shoping center.

The hotel room and facilities were quite acceptable, but what looked a good central location on a map turned out to be nowhere near to any interesting sites, useful restaurants or interesting shopping. OK for our overnight stay, but those staying longer should look elsewhere.

It has been about 10 years since I last visited New Delhi. So over the new year, I have invited my wife to join our special trip. Here are my reviews. 1. The room is clean. 2. The hotel is on an excellent location. 3. The services of most staff are O.K. But WARNING: One staff in particular are trained to up-sell at "unreasonable" price. The day before my departure, I have asked for a going rate for a taxi to take us back from the hotel to an airport. He said it was "800 Rupees." But that rate is about X2 as much as what I have paid when I took my own transportation from the Airport to the hotel. So I waited. On the next day, after our morning trip, I went back to the same guy. The staff mentioned to me the going rate is now "1,800 Rupees." So I was very upset and said to him that his quoted rate is only "800 Rupees." "What is going on?," I said. Then other staff intervened. So he said it was going to be "800 Rupees." I said that we chose to come to the Radisson because we trusted that we would be SAFE and would not be "tricked." Then the other staff looked at him with some surprise and said that the price should be "500 Rupees" Well - that is what we have paid at the end, but I believe that without transparency, the staff may have an agenda of his own.

A very pleasant hotel with good food and excellent service. Drinks and food overpriced but hey - this is Delhi! Subject to disruption from the rebuilding of Connaught Place for the Commonwealth Games and unfinished on 03/10 but will be fine eventually.

夕方豪雨のためホテルの周りが冠水、警察の規制のため渋滞が酷くタクシーがホテルまでこれない状況になり、フライトに乗り遅れそうになったが、ホテルのスタッフの方が機敏に行動してくれ無事空港までたどり着くことができた。概して対応は非常に丁寧。次回デリー訪問時も是非利用したいホテルの１つ。 現在ホテル周辺（コンノートプレイス周辺）は工事が頻繁に行われており、アクセスにやや難があることと、ホテルのレセプションフロアが雨で浸水していたことが残念なポイント。
