Excellent stay By Central Market
Great place located close to Lajpat Nagar and the Central Market. Service was great, rooms clean and tidy. It was great to come back to an Air Conditioned room from the humid August temperatures. Rooftop closed for the monsoon months June-August. Very close to the Central Market great for shopping.

Excellent property in a quiet neighbourhood, it is done up in a manner that it feels like a home away from home. The staff is friendly and they also serve very good food. I will surely come back again.

Won’t stay there again
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

Cozy, homey and professional
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.

Good
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.

Wonderful and quiet
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.

Fantastic Accommodations - Defence Colony, Delhi
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.

Comfortable Stay
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.

A home away from home
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.

A quiet and friendly perch in a busy city
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.
