Hotel Sunstar Residency is a 3-star hotel in New Delhi.

Guests rate it 4.1 across 1572 reviews. It’s a midscale choice for New Delhi.

Connaught Place is the best all-round base, because Rajiv Chowk is the interchange between the Yellow and Blue lines and puts Chandni Chowk five stops north and Hauz Khas seven stops south. If your trip is built around the Qutub Minar, Mehrauli Archaeological Park and Tughlaqabad, stay in Saket or Hauz Khas instead and save the daily 15 km commute. For quiet and space, Chanakyapuri and Defence Colony work well, though Chanakyapuri starts around ₹14,000. Paharganj is only worth it for the ₹700–2,000 price and the ten-minute walk to New Delhi Railway Station.

June and August are the cheapest, with rates 30–40 per cent below December across every category. June is the reason: daytime temperatures of 42–46 °C make Tughlaqabad Fort or the open lawns at Humayun’s Tomb unpleasant after about 10am, so hotels in Aerocity and Chanakyapuri that never discount in winter start doing so. August is monsoon, humid and prone to waterlogging on the Ring Road, but mornings are workable and Sunder Nursery is at its greenest. If you want low prices without the extremes, the first three weeks of September or the second half of March are the compromise.

Four nights is the minimum for the main monuments, because Shahjahanabad, Mehrauli and the Nizamuddin corridor are three separate clusters 15–20 km apart and each takes most of a day. Five nights adds the National Museum on Janpath, Feroz Shah Kotla and Agrasen ki Baoli without rushing. Six or seven lets you add Agra with an overnight there, which is the only way to see the Taj Mahal at sunrise and still reach Fatehpur Sikri. For the full Delhi–Agra–Jaipur circuit with a night at Neemrana, plan on ten.

The Airport Express metro is fastest: 22.7 km from Terminal 3 to New Delhi Railway Station in about 20 minutes for ₹60, with stops at Delhi Aerocity and Dhaula Kuan. A prepaid taxi from the T3 arrivals counter to Connaught Place costs ₹500–700 and takes 35–50 minutes depending on NH-48 traffic. Ola and Uber pick up from the designated bays and price similarly outside surge hours. If you are staying in Aerocity itself the drive is under 10 minutes, and most hotels there run a free shuttle; Mahipalpur is the same distance on the other side of NH-48 but you will need an auto.

No, not for the city itself. The metro covers nearly 390 km with fares of ₹10–60 and reaches Lal Qila, Jor Bagh, Hauz Khas and Qutub Minar stations, with autos at about ₹30 for the first 1.5 km filling the last stretch. A car with driver, at roughly ₹2,500–3,500 for the standard 8 hours and 80 km, is worth it for one day only: the Mehrauli Archaeological Park, Sultan Ghari and Tughlaqabad loop that no single metro line connects. For Agra and Jaipur, take the Gatimaan Express or the Ajmer Shatabdi rather than driving.

The most straightforward way is by taxi or auto-rickshaw, which is a short, direct ride. While you could use the Delhi Metro, it would likely require a combination of walking and a train change, making a cab more time-efficient for this specific journey.

It can work for budget-conscious families who are comfortable with a no-frills stay and the lively local environment. However, the bustling market area may not be ideal for very young children needing quiet naps. Check room configurations and bedding options carefully when booking.

Absolutely. The W.E.A. and Channa Market area is full of local dhabas (eateries), street food stalls, and casual restaurants serving authentic North Indian cuisine at very reasonable prices. It's a great area to try parathas, kebabs, and chaat without venturing far.

Hotel Sunstar Residency is a regular hotel — we don't claim otherwise. What IS carbon-neutral is booking it through IMPT: every completed booking funds one verified tonne of CO2 removal (real, independently verified regenerative-agriculture projects), at the exact same live rate you would pay anywhere else. The hotel isn't being marketed as green — the way you book it is what makes the stay carbon-neutral.

No. The one tonne of CO2 removal funded by your booking comes out of the standard booking commission IMPT already earns from the hotel — it is never added to your bill. You pay the same live rate as booking direct or through any other site.
