Question 5

How do I get from Delhi airport to the city centre?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

Do I need a car in New Delhi?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 7

Is Delhi better for families or for couples, and which areas suit each?

Accepted Answer

Both work, but the areas differ. Families do best in Vasant Kunj, Dwarka or Saket, where hotels have pools, larger rooms and easy parking, and Saket sits two metro stops from Qutub Minar; expect ₹4,000–9,000. Couples tend to prefer Hauz Khas for the deer park and the ruins beside the reservoir, or Nizamuddin East for the walk to Sunder Nursery and Humayun’s Tomb, at ₹3,000–7,000. Extra beds and cots are widely available but rarely free, usually ₹800–1,500 a night, and Indian hotels often cap occupancy at three per room.

Question 8

What should I book well in advance in Delhi?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 9

What is a typical nightly hotel rate in New Delhi?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 10

How easy is it to get from Saltstayz Select Malcha & Chankyapuri to New Delhi's international airport?

Accepted Answer

The hotel is located in Chanakyapuri, which is a reasonable distance from Indira Gandhi International Airport. Travel time varies with traffic conditions, but generally allows for airport transfers within 30-45 minutes by car or taxi during non-peak hours. The hotel'sa short distance front desk can assist with arranging transportation or helping you estimate departure times needed to catch your flight.

Question 11

What dining options are available near Saltstayz Select Malcha & Chankyapuri?

Accepted Answer

You'll find a mix of restaurants catering to the diplomatic community and local establishments within walking distance or a short auto-rickshaw ride. The First Floor Shopping Centre where the hotel is located may also have cafes or eateries for convenient meals.

Question 12

Is Saltstayz Select Malcha & Chankyapuri suitable for families with children?

Accepted Answer
