This sounds like you're looking for a hotel that offers day rates.

the four points near the airport is perfectly fine for a short stay....all the other starwood properties in the city are much better but if you need to be close to the airport & are just looking to relax by the pool for a few hours then the four points in a good choice....

Thanks! I will check it out.

Four Points is seriously bad there. Not too close to the airport either. Sorry to say that, but Holiday Inn is a much better property near to the airport.

Keyser

what makes you say that????i have stayed here many times between layovers & for early morning flights....i've never had a bad stay....also, depending on the time of day or night, it takes 5-10 minutes to get to the airport from here....

It could be that I have been unlucky, but I was disappointed by the hard product and displeased by the service during my one and the only stay there. Won’t go back, I rather stay at nearby HI, which is better in every respect.

Keyser

fair enough....i find the property to be a good option for just spending the night....they have only 1 suite, which significantly reduces chances of getting an upgrade....i have been upgraded to the suite a few times but mostly end up in their regular rooms....i haven't experienced any service issues as well....the property is one of the larger four points i have come across but i have never used any of the facilities like the pool or gym so i can't comment on those....they also seem to be popular with weddings since they have a huge garden both in the front & back, as well as a large banquet hall....

you are right that in terms of a layover the holiday inn would be a good choice, given the fact that its much closer to the airport....however, the next time i am looking to stay the night in this area i would consider the aloft....its in the same area as the holiday inn & is a brand new property....

Have anyone stay at Sheraton Delhi after big renovation? I just email the hotel, they said all renovation already finished on December 2018

Interestingly enough, my experience was exactly the opposite. The hard product is quite decent, and the staff was amazing. They even provided me with a free shuttle ride to the airport when my Uber driver decided not to show up.

Two-ish nights in Delhi coming up soon. I've always stayed at the Maurya - stunning breakfast, and great restaurants for dinner. It's the default choice for me.

The question is - should I go for either the JW Aerocity or the Le Meridien?

Key factors:

• Titanium Elite status
• two nights arriving on SFO-DEL super-early morning on a Saturday, will book a Friday night accordingly
• leaving Sunday early evening - late checkout important
• good breakfast on Sunday is important to me! (Maurya may be hard to beat)
• lounge etc. pretty irrelevant, unlikely to use
• don't care about touristing - been there, done that. i'm just meeting an old uni mate and taking a day off before a hectic week in PNQ

JW seems tempting - easy to the airport, great reviews that I've seen, and great rooms in a newish hotel. Any and all inputs welcomed.

thanks in advance as ever, FT.

I've had breakfast at the JW & can confirm that it was on par with the breakfast at Maurya. But keep in mind that this was pre-covid so not sure how the breakfast is at either hotel these days.

Besides that, I would pick the JW over Maurya in terms of location. Aerocity has a lot of restaurants within walking distance to the JW.

I stayed at both the Maurya and the JW several times pre-covid, and at the JW about 2 weeks ago. The breakfast at the JW has held up well and I would say that it's on par with the Maurya's pre-covid offering. For dinner and otherwise, the Maurya does offer more restaurant options, but the JW's restaurant is also good. Location wise, it's mostly up to the OP, but proximity/time to the airport is a nice feature of the JW. I also prefer the rooms at the JW, but that is more of a personal taste/preference thing.
