Hotel is Government Owned and Run, situated in what they call the "Diplomatic Enclave". Translated into English, this means that they get a steady flow of Government-sponsored and Government related visitors, thus they have little incentive to do more than the basic level of service. It is well off the center of Delhi, meaning a couple hundred rupee minimum to... More

The Ashok is the country's first five star hotel...and it looks as if it still operated on 1950's standards. The rooms were just ok [standard class at best], the food is wanting on taste and freshness, and the service of the staff is less than what you'd expect from a deluxe hotel. We stayed for one month, and every day... More

On a recent business visit a couple of friends took me to the Frontier restaurant in the Ashoka hotel. I didn't stay at the hotel so can only comment on the restaurant itself. Was pretty impressed. The food was very good, although many of the dishes are dry so if you like yours with sauce be sure to order one.... More

This hotel does not worth what I... More

Ashoka Hotel is one of the oldest hotels in Delhi and recently underwent major renovations for the 2010 Commonwealth games. While the location is excellent in the heart of posh diplomatic areas of Delhi and the building reminds one of a grand palatial venue, this hotel suffers from some of the same problems all government run hotels in India do...

This hotel offers great rooms and fantastic service and delivers on its 5 star rating. It is located in a very beautiful part of New Delhi. Rooms are appealing, clean and well maintained. Staff are friendly and responsive. But, avoid using the travel desk as you are able to source tour services at half the price quoted. I booked the... More
