Anavrin Art House

Anavrin Art House Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Anavrin Art House feels like discovering a hidden creative sanctuary tucked away in South Extension-2. This three-star boutique property sits on the third floor of a building that you might easily walk past, but honestly, that’s part of its charm. The moment you step inside, you’re surrounded by carefully curated artwork and design elements that make it clear this isn’t your typical Delhi hotel. I mean, the name says it all — this place takes its art seriously, and you can feel that creative energy the second you arrive.

The Neighborhood Advantage

South Extension-2 is one of those New Delhi neighborhoods that locals love but tourists often overlook, which works perfectly in your favor. You’re actually in the heart of one of the city’s best shopping and dining districts — the main South Ex market is literally a few minutes’ walk away. What I really appreciate is how couples seem to get this location (they’ve rated it 8.5, which makes total sense). You’ve got everything from street food stalls to upscale restaurants within walking distance, plus the metro connectivity is solid when you want to explore other parts of the city.

The Room Experience

Each room here feels like staying in an artist’s carefully designed studio rather than a standard hotel space. The attention to detail is what gets me — from the thoughtfully chosen color palettes to the way natural light plays across the walls during different times of day. You know what’s refreshing? The spaces feel authentic, not like someone just threw some paintings on generic hotel walls and called it “artsy.” The rooms aren’t huge (this is Delhi, after all), but they’re designed so well that you don’t feel cramped.

What Makes It Special

The recent guest rating of 9.2 for location isn’t just a number — it reflects something you’ll notice once you’re here. This area has that perfect balance where you feel connected to real Delhi life without being overwhelmed by the chaos that can hit you in other parts of the city. The staff genuinely seems to care about the art concept too, and they’re usually happy to chat about the pieces displayed throughout the property. There’s also this sense that you’re supporting something more creative and personal than a big chain hotel, which honestly feels good when you’re traveling.

Why Guests Love It

With an 8.1 overall rating, Anavrin Art House has found that sweet spot between artistic character and practical comfort. What really works is how it doesn’t try to be something it’s not — it’s a well-designed, thoughtfully run place that happens to be perfectly positioned in one of Delhi’s most livable neighborhoods. The couples who keep rating the location so highly aren’t wrong; there’s something romantic about discovering this creative hideaway together. Plus, you’re getting genuine value here — the experience feels more expensive than what you’re actually paying, which is always a win in my book.

Reviews of Anavrin Art House

• Chakshu from India – 22 January 2024 (9/10)

  Good location. Near to the metro & market, makes it easy to get transport and if you want to buy things for daily use or just want to have dinner/lunch. You get food in house too which was delicious.
  The place itself has a very homely and artistic vibe. Anant and Aarav who hosted me were quite friendly and kind. Beds were comfortable, you get attached washroom with hot shower in winters in dormitory.
  Last but not the least, the best part was the rooftop and their plants. I loved it so much and spent most of my time there. They also had bonefire in evenings.
  
  What could be improved: Food was little overpriced but it was delicious so I think it's not that bad.

• Rhiannon from United Kingdom – 29 November 2023 (7/10)

  In a nice area of Delhi with great cheap food options nearby. Room was nicely decorated and the roof terrace was nice.
  
  What could be improved: Kitchen area and bedroom could do with a deep clean and decluttering.

  propert was really good and with friendly people and homely food, it was nice experience

• Asimina from Greece – 26 August 2023 (8/10)

  Very kind and thoughtful staff/owner, waited up for my very late arrival and was mindful of my whereabouts, as if I was waited up by a member of my family.
  A very artistic hostel with beautiful terrace
  
  What could be improved: Sorting, organising and cleaning were not among the main concerns -of at least my room. I found a three day old boarding pass under my pillow, which made me think that was the minimum amount of days it was there?
