Great Budget Hotels in Delhi (Budget – Under $50/night)
BloomRooms @ New Delhi Rail Station
BloomRooms is a good option if you’re on a budget and wanting to catch a train to Agra – it’s across the street from the rail station, and the early/fast train to Agra leaves at 6:30am. If you’re in Delhi to head to Agra, this is a good option. It’s also close to the metro station, and it’s in the middle of things so sightseeing is relatively easy!
Hotel Hari Piorko
Close to both the train station and Connaught Place, Hotel Hari Piorko is a good option if you’re on a budget and looking for a place to stay. You won’t find the nicest accommodations, but they are more than adequate, the staff is friendly, and it’s hard to beat the price!
Great Hostels in Delhi (Shoestring Budget – Under $20/night)
The Madpacker’s Hostel
A fun and social hostel, Madpacker’s is in a somewhat quiet neighborhood in Delhi. They also organize excellent city tours! Given that it is a social hostel, come here for a great place to meet friends and other travelers, but if you’re looking for simply a quiet night’s sleep, you might want to look elsewhere. The location is good but can be hard to find – it might be difficult if you have a late flight in.
GoStops Delhi
If you want to get out and explore Delhi, GoStops has an awesome location! It’s right next to the metro station, fairly close to the train station and also close to Connaught Place. They have a variety of rooms on offer – from dorms to singles, so it’s a great place to stay, and a great place to meet people!
