We stayed at the Sri Nanak Continental at the end of November while attending a friend's wedding in Delhi. The hotel is simple, but spotless, and contrary to earlier reviews that claim the rooms look nothing like the pictures on the website, ours was exactly as we had expected. In fact, we even took a peek at the suite across the hall from us and it was just like the website photographs.
Sri Nanak Continental is one of those hotels that surprises you. It appears so simple, yet they were able to accommodate all of our needs. They even had car service for a reasonable price. We had three wedding events to attend and were able to use the hotel's car for eight hour stretches at a time.
The breakfast buffet, which was included, was acceptable. Not gourmet fare by any means, but had a good variety of Indian and Continental choices.
The hotel is located in Karol Bagh, which is a very busy, noisy neighborhood, but a convenient walk to the market and restaurants as well as the subway station. Again, contrary to previous reviews, we had no problems getting rickshaw drivers to take us there. We took three rickshaw rides from the downtown area and all three knew exactly where the hotel was.
When we checked out, there were no surprises on our bill.
The hotel staff was also very friendly and helpful. On the day we left Delhi, we had gotten caught in a scam at the railway station that caused us to miss our train. Once we realized that we had been scammed (and thankfully not having paid extra money to the travel agent that had orchestrated the scam) we went back to Sri Nanak. The hotel staff immediately went online to find another available train for the same day, came with us to the train station and helped us purchase last minute train tickets. We departed Delhi without further hassle thanks to the guys at Sri Nanak!
