Bungalow 157

la stanza era in comune con altri ospiti e non era chiaro nella prenotazione. Il rapporto qualità prezzo spropositato vista l'India. Il quartiere molto fuori mano

My second stay at Bungalow 157 was every bit as delightful as the first. Set within a peaceful neighbourhood of defence colony and shades by a grand Bodhi tree, the property has a wonderfully warm and homely character. It is neat, well-maintained, and thoughtfully managed, with a friendly and welcoming staff who make the experience even more pleasant. Staying here feels less like being at a hotel and more like being at home.

Todo. Es hermoso

Sehr ruhig gelegen

Wenn mehrere Leute die gleiche Wohnung bewohnen, kann es etwas laut werden

I didn’t expect for a property in Delhi to be this quaint and welcoming, but it exceeded all my expectations. The room was spotless, the mattress super comfortable. I stayed here after a long and tiring trip, and this place was a perfect refuge. I’d love to stay here again.

Nothing

Simple, bien ubicado, cómodo

Place had a nice enough vibe. Check in was fine, and helpful. It was in an odd location, though, so kind of hard to get to and from. Basic breakfast was acceptable.

Not a nice place to walk around and the nearby shops were very basic. There was a strong, unpleasant smell coming from the nearby canal. Shower was only half-working.

Clean, quiet, huge bathroom. Home cooked breakfast was tasty. The staff was very helpful.

A bit pricey for the value. Light switches oddly configured.

zona ben servita, appartamento spazioso, pulizia, colazione con vasta scelta, disponibilità dello staff

This is like staying in someone's home but it is completely private room and en suite. There is a shared kitchen and lounge room. Quiet. Defence Colony has a good range of restaurants etc.

Sometimes hard for the auto rickshaws to find the location.

The location was great

It was kind of dirty

Cuartos muy cómodos con acceso a un living casi propio

A clean oasis in grimy Delhi

Some staff can barely converse but they try

Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. 24/7 Rezeption. Sehr grosszügige Zimmer und angenehmer Aufenthaltsraum/Küche. Ruhiges Wohnquartier mit hübschem Market. Die Lage ist optimal für Ausflüge zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten. Aber auch zum Khan Market oder Parks zum flanieren.

Das Frühstück war leider verwestlicht, was vor allem den indischen Gerichten nicht so gut tut :-) Kaffee und Tee sind auf der schwächlichen Seite. Aber auch hier, sehr freundliches Personal.

Sehr freundliches Personal, hilfsbereit 24/7. Grosszügige Räumlichkeiten. Ideale Lage für Tagesausflüge und doch nah beim Flughafen.

Das Frühstück. Tee und Kaffee eher lahm. Die indischen Speisen sehr westlich gekocht :-)

Safe, clean, spacious, helpful staff

We had a very nice stay in Bungalow157 ! The rooms were spacious, clean and very modern. The bed was so comfortable. Delicious breakfast, cooked on-demand.

Ligging in Defence Colony

Lawaai van de AC

Location in the Defence Colony with its gorgeous big old Bodhi Tree just outside is perfect.. the Defence Colony shops are great - from worldwide cheese to organic Ayurvedic face wash and every fruit and veg you could wish for.. felt safe walking at night.. its my favourite part of Delhi. The apartment was lovely and spacious. - glad there was a lift for luggage! - the lounge so restful - although I guess if the other 2 bedroom occupants (3 separately rented bedrooms per floor) were noisy it wouldn't be so enjoyable - so its your good fortune or otherwise as to how that shared lounge, dining area and kitchen are. It was all idyllic when I was there. Bedroom big and comfy bed. I found having a washing machine a real treat whilst travelling. Whole place tastefully furnished.

I'm matching the levels of care to a top rate hotel given the comparable price.. so.. in that case: Cleaning not quite up to scratch, shower grouting, undercover bed sheet, old toilet brush (I went and bought them a new one - £2.50 at the local shop).. given how lovely the place is, it wouldn't take much for the owners to have a quick check every week or two (they aren't far away) to make sure it stays tip top.. probably little maintenance touches the regular cleaning staff don't have on their rota. Could do with a few extras in the kitchen - scissors, bottle opener, - but it hardly matters.. however given the price, those 'extras' help. although clearly a lot of guests don't use the kitchen much if at all.

Amazing place that I was looking forward to discover. All clean, very well decorated, very well located in Delhi. Can’t wait to go back :)

Todo muy bien, buena ubicación, check in 24 horas, la habitación amplia y con todo lo necesario, todo muy limpio. El desayuno era a la carta y estaba delicioso, todo se sentía muy fresco y casero. Son habitaciones individuales con baño privado (como cualquier hotel) pero con una sala y cocina compartida, lo cual facilita mucho si queriamos guardar o preparar algo. De verdad fue una grata sorpresa este lugar.

Nada

My room was large, well lit, v comfortable with a beautiful bathroom. Glad to have the AC. V convenient location

Would have preferred an electric kettle in my room instead of having to go to the kitchen each time for hot water. On the last night, woken up around 4am by a couple who checked in early hours of the morning and started to use kitchen facilities. Left their garments on dinning chairs and their bedroom door wide open whilst asleep. They locked the entrance to first floor, as if the entire floor was reserved for them. Some consideration for other guests sharing the facilities should have been made clear to them by management.

For tbe price , amazing value. Cannot fault 🙏

Huge room. Very good breakfast. Clean and modern. Each floor has three rooms sharing a living/dining room, kitchen with fridge and microwave, washing machine/dryer. Located in a quiet neighborhood within 10 minutes walk to the restaurants and shops of the Defense Colony Market.

special property, tasteful , elegant , attention to details , spacious room , spotless clean , neighborhood is safe , very central . Good breakfast

Huge room with balcony onto the trees. Shared great room with large dining/work table, couches, mircowave, fridge, washing machine. Very good breakfast too. Also nearby within walking distance is an area with great restaurants and a few shops.

All good!

Great location, extremely clean. Great staff, nice breakfast.

Nothing. It was all good.

Location, cleanliness and the layout the living area was really good.

Please add a mirror in the room. The drainage smell from outside was really bad.

Property is located in a lovely area & is affordable. Property is airy, stylish, decorated nicely & very spacious. Staff were very approachable, friendly, and they aimed to be helpful.

I notified the property weeks in advance that I was vegan, therefore would require vegan breakfast (offered as part of the cost of the room) & milk alternatives for tea/coffee. They messaged back via booking.com confirming this would not be a problem. I reminded them upon check in & the host said it would not be a problem. For breakfast I ordered soya milk for coffee and muesli, they said they had almond milk. I said that’s fine, thank you. Coffee was brought to me with milk, i thought it looked like cows milk so I had to ask the server what milk it was. He said it was cows milk. I said his colleague offered me almond milk when I placed my order. He said they had none. I was a little frustrated as I had let them know in advance multiple times and I felt it would not have required a large effort to get a carton of soya milk. Also they arranged a taxi for us to the airport but didn’t not advise us we needed to pay cash. Eventually it was agreed we could pay card with 18% additional tax but delayed us getting to the airport. If we had been told in advance we could have got the cash ready, but this was not the end of the world. Also bedding was clean but there were some stains.

Wonderful place with very nice people Well designed Indian styled environment in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Restaurants near The rooms are spacious and very clean with everything you need. In the center of every floor you can find a bibliotheca with interesting and beautiful books. Very, very nice and helpful staff. A very good thing for travelers is also the washing machine that you can use. When we had no washing powder they gave it us for free.

Nothing

Good breakfast, freshly prepared to order

Amazing breakfast!! Clean and well taken care off.

Bottom floor was at street level so we kept the curtains shut the whole time. A bit of a shame as the photos shown are of a higher floor where you can keep the curtains open more easily.

Location, staff and room

Green , serene and peaceful

The breakfast was amazing … maybe more planted trees on the outddoor terrace so one can sit outside rather than always inside ??

Good location

Cleanliness, photos are not the same as rooms and friendliness of staff. We did not have breakfast as it was in the basement.

Clean and spacious rooms and bathroom Unobtrusive staff

Lighting in the bathrooms was a bit too dim Needed a dressing console and full length mirror in the room.

Room was really spacious and clean.

The location is good, the bed is comfortable

The shower cubicle door was broken, the shower gel is vile, no guests are allowed into the property whatsoever – something that has to be specifically mentioned before you book, rooms are kind of small, whereas the common areas are so large it defeats the purpose

Very spacious bedroom and apartment, peace and quiet whilst so in the centre of Delhi. Central location. The kitchen staff were attentive. Safe and secure very close to good restaurants..

My first room was wonderful. The environment serene and completely quiet at night. It was very comfy in just about every way… The location was very walkable to the cute and plentiful main market, which provided everything one needs. The staff was friendly and helpful and did their best to make my stay comfortable, within their somewhat limited authority.

Some of the things advertised were just not true. Should be amended in the description. While the kitchen is available, they prefer for you not to cook so they severely limit the provision of utensils and equipment. The utensils they do provide, are worn and of poor quality. I was asked last minute to leave my room and go to another room. The other room was closer to the street noise and lights, the AC noisy and the quality of the first room was just not the same. It was a completely different experience and really strange to be asked to move immediately. I think this hotel needs an upgrade in the way it is run…given the price charged. There were too many issues to name here. Not sure I’d stay again.

Outstanding highlight for me was that my sister was not well and I had to head out before the pharmacies were open so gave some money to the front desk and asked if they could get her some medicine when the pharmacies opened and they helped with that which was much appreciated. The rooms and flats are modern. We were lucky the other people in our apartment were friendly and respectful (there were three rooms in our apartment - sharing kitchen, living room and dining area). Kitchen, living/dining area and washing machine make you feel a bit more comfortable than staying in a hotel (albeit the trade off is you have more limited facilities eg no gym and experience is more likely to be impacted by what the other people on your floor are like). Location was good.

Our room had a funny smell at times (like that of a drain). The front desk did bring an air freshener which did help.

Very clean, good air and water filters, washing machine and kitchen facilities. Large rooms. Very nice helpful staff.

A very safe property with friend staff. Modern interior design and clean, great breakfast too.

Worth noting all kitchen areas for tea/ coffee/ sofas are communal but wasn’t too much of an issue

Breakfast was lovely. Freshly made, thoughtful menu, generous service, all good!

Not enough toiletries, that's my only complaint. No slippers, dental kit, etc.

Very peaceful place, nice indian breakfast, save and green neighborhood

Unfortunately it wasn't clear from the description that you'll have your own room with bathroom and share the kitchen and living room with 2 other guests

Really nice place to stay in Delhi; the location feels very safe and quiet, the room was a great size with nice interiors and super clean and the breakfast was good. Staff were also very reactive to an issue with hot water that we had and fixed it very quickly. Would recommend!

Nothing

Such a great stay here. After travelling around it was perfect for a good night sleep and refresh. Beautiful interiors with great communal spaces, loved that there was a washing machine available to use. Very comfy beds and enjoyed the breakfast. They let me stay in the communal areas after check out until my flight was due.

Just to note - The google maps location is wrong. Apple Maps is correct.

Lovely, friendly staff. The rooms are beautifully designed in a minimalist fashion. Use of the common area is really nice. Bathroom and shower was great, and the beds were very comfy! Each room is equipped with an air purifier which is a lovely and thoughtful addition. Breakfast was basic but good quality. It's in a pretty quiet, clean, and safe area of Delhi. We actually stayed at this property twice during our stay in India, as we were doing some traveling around the country and then returned to Delhi for a few days after that. During that entire time, they stored some of our large luggage pieces at the hotel for us securely, and it was waiting for us in our room when we checked in the second time. All without a fuss or requesting extra payment, which I thought was an awesome gesture. Thank you very much for that!

Noise isolation could be a bit better. If you're in one of the rooms next to the communal kitchen, and people decide to use it at night, you hear EVERYTHING since the walls and doors appear to be a little thin: clattering of plates, usage of the microwave, loud talking. This was particularly annoying on some late nights. I think it would be great if there were some signs or requests towards guests not to use or make noise in the communal area after a certain time of night. Balcony was not usable since it looks out into a construction site.

Very nice place, nice neighborhood, very good breakfast. Metro stop is very reachable.

Loves the room, very comfortable, bed was nice.

Nothing. I liked everything.

Good location, clean, great shower

N/A

Lots of local fruits and different options to choose from, I loved it. Location is quite and safe. Premises are super clean and modern equipment

Amazing location, very safe and secure, clean spacious beautiful rooms and polite and responsive staff, delicious breakfast.

Given the tariff of the room is high and expensive, the breakfast options should have been more. Currently the breakfast option is very limited.

Tasteful decoration, spacious room, good breakfast, friendly staff, fast Internet, location is calm and not traffic congested.

The location “Defence Colony” is a little bit off the beaten track. There are a few decent restaurants nearby, if any. The balcony in front of my room was not really usable because of construction activity and the lack of view.

Hotel location.

1. We had a wonderful time at this place! The bungalow was stunning, and we were pleasantly surprised to find additional robes there!

The greenery

Sharing breakfast Space And people cooking at night leaving dirty plates in the sink

Very friendly, kind and supportive personal! Comfortable and homely atmosphere. Quality of food and services is excellent. Bungalow 157 is located just 3 minutes walk from the next market (food, Cafés, Restaurants, Items,…) in a very safe environment.

Some of the colony gates close in the late evening, making it hard for Ola/Uber/TukTuk to find a way to Bungalow 157.
