Thikana Delhi ( boutique bed and breakfast )

Staying at Thikana honestly felt like being at home. The kind of place where you stop feeling like a guest after the first day. The room felt comfortable and thoughtfully set up, and I really appreciated the air purifier in the room. It was a small thing, but it made a noticeable difference and added to the overall sense of care. Food was tasty and fresh

I stayed at Thikana for just over two weeks and it slowly became part of my routine. Mornings start around the breakfast table, which is communal, and that became one of the best parts of the stay. You end up meeting people from very different walks of life, and the group changes every few days, which keeps conversations fresh. It’s an easy place to feel a part of .

An impromptu decision to stay here after my service apartment booking fell through and was very glad for it. Thikana offers the best of b&b stays_ beautifully done up house, great breakfast (providing a regional speciality each day along with the standard offerings is a great touch), chance conversations with other travelers around the table. Sheetal and Atul are warm hospitable and great at looking after the guests. Glad to have discovered this place.

Thikana is such a wonderful guesthouse. The rooms are lovely, clean, spacious. The location is lovely, peaceful South Delhi is the best spot to explore the city from. Atul and Sheetal arranged me a very trustworthy driver for my stay and were so helpful with their advice and tips for my stay in Delhi. I highly recommend

What a fantastic place to stay, A beautiful guesthouse in the leafy calm of South Delhi. The hosts at Thikana are so accomodating, they will help you with advice and tips for your days and can assist you in organising a driver for your stay if you give advance warning. I could not recommend any higher - feels like a home away from home

We loved staying at The Thikana Delhi - a lovely oasis tucked away in the heart of busy Delhi. The hospitality of the owners and staff made our stay very enjoyable. The rooftop terrace is a peaceful hideaway — the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring bustling Delhi. Whether you’re visiting the city for leisure or business, we highly recommend staying at this charming Boutique Hotel for a memorable and unforgettable experience. ||Nadine from Berlin, Germany and Jean-Francois from Montreal, Canada

This hotel will scam you, and blame it on others. We specifically chose this hotel because of 24 hour security, and because we could check in at wee hours (we landed in Delhi at 3AM after 24H+ of travel) We were told by the hotel, after calling the number they provided, that the road was not accessible (due to high security because of recent terror attack- that makes sense) However, instead of working with us to get us there, at 330 AM, they told us “just go to the travel office and we’ll pick you up” Again, this was not some scam phone number I was talking to- this was the listed phone number on the reservation for security and late check in. So I ask the reasonable follow up question: “when can you pick us up?” And they can’t give me a time. So now I’m in a completely foreign city, at 330 AM, police checkpoints everywhere, and I can’t get into my hotel that I specifically chose because they’d be ready to check me in at 3AM. In the morning they have the audacity to tell me that someone ELSE is trying to scam me, like my cab driver. As if I didn’t personally call the number. Then they spend the entire next day calling my phone number and telling me it’s my fault, even after I made it clear I want a refund and not to be contacted, they still kept calling me. Then came the emails. They deny all wrongdoing. Don’t get scammed by this establishment- had to go to my credit card people to cancel the charge. Huge hassle. As a first time India traveler you might say getting scammed is part of the experience- but continuing to tell me that it was someone else, and still trying to get me to stay in the room (which can’t be accessed at certain times when road is closed with checkpoint!!!!!) is patently insane. Don’t book here. There’s so many other hotels in Delhi

We stayed and this homestay hotel on the way back to Delhi, just one night. The hotel owner is so warm and welcoming, wish we had more to try the breakfast. The room was spacious, the bathroom was newly renovated, all clean and everything we required was in place. There was also a kettle in the room.
