A homely, well-run and clean place with efficient, polite and helpful staff. Excellent location, close to main centres of activity. Wifi is good but cell phone connectivity is a major issue.

Very clean, excellent food, Naresh was very helpful although difficult to communicate with because of language barrier. Staff can’t speak English (only mention this because it’s India, they should !), are rude, don’t listen and not particularly helpful. WiFi crappy

My second stay at the Colonel’s Retreat and am just as satisfied. Great place to unwind at the rooftop restaurant with a chilled beer beneath the stars. The person who took us in and served us lovely fresh lime sodas and cheese sandwiches deserves a special mention, unfortunately i forget his name. I feel i must mention here that some of the kitchen staff were less than helpful when asked to provide glutenfree options. I felt i was imposing on them and they were uncooperative. However, it was a lovely stay overall.

Very nice hotel everything was clean compare to other hotels. The only problem they had a lot of mosquitoes for some reason they have to take care of that. I think its because too much plants. I recommend they get rid of plants because indian mosquitoes are not safe. There were a lot of mosquitoes repellent but didn't help much. Other than mosquitoes best place and device loved it. I want to go again please remove that plants so no more mosquitoes.

Nice, quiet place in a residential neighborhood, somewhat isolated. We thought it was quite overpriced, but ultimately had a comfortable stay.

Far away from the hustle but a quick metro ride to the sights. Fabulous breakfasts on the terrace with an easy cater for a gluten free person. Great rooms, clean and spacious. Delhi under-rated as a tourist destination - and plenty of great advice about what to see.

From the moment I arrived the staff made me feel welcomed and appreciated. The airline lost my luggage, I was hungry and exhausted when I arrived. The staff offered tea while they prepared lunch and I settled in my room. They continued to assist with locating my luggage until it was delivered the following day. Delicious breakfast on the rooftop terrace. Very comfortable bef, hot shower, free wi-ri, toiletries and EXCELLENT customer service! I highly recommend a stay here.

We were well taken care of at the Colonels Retreat. The place is located in a quite neighborhood in chaotic Delhi which we appreciated.The place is clean and well serviced. The hosts checked in with us every morning and the staff took care of all our requests. A real treat and great value for money. As a recommendation for other travelers, we found taxi services hailed via OLA and Uber to be cheaper than the ones arranged by the guesthouse for airport drops.

This exquisitely furnished homely property is well maintained and located in a tree lined quiet suburb of Delhi. staff are friendly and helpful. We stayed for 3 nights, the shopping areas are easily accessible and close by and transport are within easy reach. It does not have the trappings of a hotel but offers a warm, comfortable homestay in well appointed clean rooms.

Clean quite and well presented Khanna and his wife are a breath of fresh air in a chaiotic city After years staying in many places in New Delhi I am happy to say Col Retreat is a gem in a city of insainity Glad to find Highly recommend

Colonel's Retreat is in a quiet and leafy enclave away from the bustle of Delhi, but close enough to the Metro to make easy forays. The staff is welcoming and the rooms are comfortable, opening to a nice common room on each floor. Breakfast is good, featuring their famous banana bread. I had dinner there and it was also excellent and reasonably priced. It is so secluded that drivers might have a hard time locating it (mine did), but they will eventually. The availability of the Metro is extremely important. Delhi street traffic is horrendous.

We loved the Colonel's Retreat! Even got to meet the Colonel himself! A lovely gentleman. Beautiful, comfortable room, impeccable service, great location and wonderful breakfast! What more could you ask? A must stay if you are visiting Delhi!

The stay was nice and comfortable. Breakfast was good. Dinner is expensive and they don't give bill for dinner.

Good,clean and responsive staff

Good clean rooms with en-suite. Staff very, very accommodating. Nothing to much trouble, evening meals can be arranged. Would recommend it to friends as the place to stay. Cost very good, approximately A$60 per night, bed and breakfast. Ideal base for a trip to the Taj Mahal.

Very helpful staff - we had a late flight out of Delhi on the day of check out and after a day of sightseeing in 43 degree heat they kindly let us use a sister property's shower free of charge and prepared a delicious dinner for us before we left! Property is in a quiet area with nice restaurants and public transport nearby.

Staff and owner Were fantastic and nothing too much trouble!! Several single girls staying and the place felt very safe and welcoming . The ground floor room could be a bit noisy and my father could have done with a bigger bed as both of us had twin rooms. Ask for a double bed !! Great rooftop dining view !,, Not far from lots of places to see !,

Very nice , welcoming and homely place. Staff and owners could not do enough for you . Excellent food .Well connected and 5 minutes away from the metro station. The only minor criticism is that there should be a sign in the lounges stating that when arriving late or sitting in the shared leaving rooms,people should be aware others are sleeping /resting ,as to keep loud talking to the minimum... I would go back if I ever go back to Delhi .

Colonels Retreat is a small comfortable clean Bed and breakfast located in a quite neighbourhood of Defence colony. I found this property is bit difficult to find especially when you are checking at night, suggest to display at least the hotels name outside. All staffs are very polite and helpful especially Mr. Kamalesh. Breakfast is good fresh but monotonous if you are staying for more than 2-3 days, it would be nice if little more verity can be added. Overall a comfortable stay and like to repeat.

Location is calm and quiet yet within walking distance from a metro station. The hotel is very well maintained and comfortable. The staff were excellent; very friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Excellent choice for staying in Delhi.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Colonel's Retreat for 4 nights in February/March. Delhi was the first of 4 cities we visited and this b&b was by far the best place we stayed in. We were welcomed with tea/coffee and their homemade banana bread which is to die for! Complimentary breakfast on the roof was the best way to start our days. There were plenty of options including eggs, dosas, fresh fruit, and of course the delicious banana bread. The owners actually introduced themselves at breakfast our 2nd day and were so kind to offer their driver to take us to the nearby Lodi Gardens at no cost. The hotel is incredibly clean, including the room, ensuite bathroom and the bed sheets and towels that were provided. The bed was the most comfortable we had during our trip. Our room was cleaned every day so we'd come back to a tidy room with new towels, refilled water bottles and fresh sheets after sightseeing. We left for the airport super early (before sunrise) and the staff was kind enough to pack breakfast for us to eat on the way. The hotel was in a quiet, nice upscale residential neighborhood in South Delhi and a little hard to find especially for tuc tuc drivers when coming back at night but this was just a small inconvenience. If we visit Delhi again next time we're in India I will without a doubt stay here again!

The Coronel's Retreat is a little oasis in New Delhi. Although it is a B&B, it is really more like a small boutique hotel. The pictures and reviews online were accurate.

it was a very pleasant stay,the staff was very helpful,the room clean,super breakfast

Bearing in mind Delhi as a whole the location is quite convenient and an easy taxi ride from the airport and in to town. The hotel are very helpful in organising transport. Not a bad place to stay at the cheaper end of the market and internet access is free.
