The main property in Defence Colony is well run, comfortable, in a lovely neighborhood. Excellent rooms, pleasant common room and dining room. Excellent breakfast. Lovely dinner one evening, upon request, for our group of 7. Staff arranged for taxi cabs very efficiently.

Arun is an outstanding host and a real stickler to detail, something vital in this line of work. The room was extremely clean and comfortable and the bathroom spotless. The decor and ambience was absolutely wonderful and the food-real home food! The staff... More
