Royale Connaught Regency is a 2-star hotel in New Delhi.

Guests rate it 3.8 across 1713 reviews. It’s a value choice for New Delhi.

Book your hotel early for the last week of December, the India International Trade Fair fortnight of 14–27 November at Pragati Maidan, and the days around Republic Day on 26 January, when Lutyens Delhi tightens up and central rooms both sell out and spike. Gatimaan Express seats to Agra Cantt and Shatabdi seats to Jaipur open 60 days ahead and the good morning departures go quickly in the October–March season. Taj Mahal tickets are worth buying online in advance, and remember it is closed on Fridays. Red Fort and the National Museum both close on Mondays, so plan the day order around that.

A decent mid-range double runs ₹2,500–6,000 a night in Karol Bagh, Defence Colony, Greater Kailash or Hauz Khas, and that is the sweet spot for comfort per rupee. Budget rooms in Paharganj and Mahipalpur go for ₹700–1,800, business hotels in Aerocity, Nehru Place and Gurugram for ₹8,000–15,000, and the Chanakyapuri palace hotels for ₹18,000–40,000. Add GST on top: rooms up to ₹7,500 sit in a lower slab, anything above ₹7,500 is taxed at 18 per cent. Rates across all bands drop 30–40 per cent in May, June and August.

In pockets, yes; overall, no. Chandni Chowk between Red Fort and Fatehpuri Masjid is pedestrianised and best on foot, the Lodhi Gardens to Safdarjung’s Tomb stretch is an easy walk, and Connaught Place’s inner and outer circles are designed for it. But the distances between clusters defeat walking: Connaught Place to Qutub Minar is 15 km, and to Humayun’s Tomb about 7 km. Use the metro for the long hops and autos for the last kilometre, and in May and June do all your walking before 10am.

Stay in Saket, Hauz Khas or Greater Kailash. The Qutub Minar, the Iron Pillar, Mehrauli Archaeological Park with Balban’s tomb, Jamali Kamali and Rajon ki Baoli, Sultan Ghari and the 1321 walls of Tughlaqabad are all in the southern belt, and a ₹3,500–6,000 room here saves you two hours a day in traffic from Connaught Place. Hauz Khas has the added advantage of Firoz Shah Tughlaq’s 1352 madrasa and Alauddin Khalji’s reservoir at the end of the street. ASI monuments open sunrise to sunset with tickets at ₹35 for Indian nationals and ₹550 for foreign nationals at Qutub Minar and Humayun’s Tomb. Yellow Line trains put you back at Rajiv Chowk in about 25 minutes when you want central 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.

Yes, Nehru Place is well-connected. The Nehru Place Metro Station is a short walk away, providing links across Delhi. Auto-rickshaws and taxis are also readily available for trips to nearby areas like Hauz Khas or Connaught Place.

The area has local eateries, street food stalls, and casual restaurants catering to office crowds. For more variety, take a short ride to neighbourhoods like Defence Colony or Greater Kailash, known for their diverse dining scenes.

Yes, its location in Nehru Place—a commercial hub—makes it convenient for business visits. Amenities like free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour front desk, and dry cleaning service support work-related stays, though meeting facilities are not available.

Royale Connaught Regency 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.
