HILIFE Inn

HILIFE Inn Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to HILIFE Inn on Arakashan Road, you might wonder if you’ve found the right place — it’s tucked into the bustling Multani Dhanda area near New Delhi Railway Station, and honestly, the neighborhood can feel a bit overwhelming at first. But step inside, and there’s this immediate sense of calm that hits you. The lobby isn’t fancy, but it’s clean and welcoming, and the staff actually remembers your name after the first day. For a three-star property in New Delhi, that personal touch really stands out.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s the thing about staying in Paharganj — you’re right in the thick of everything, which can be both exciting and exhausting. The railway station is literally a few minutes’ walk away, which is incredibly handy if you’re doing the Golden Triangle circuit or catching early morning trains. I mean, you can roll out of bed and still make a 6 AM departure without breaking a sweat. The area gets pretty lively (okay, sometimes chaotic), but that’s part of the Delhi experience. Plus, there’s parking available right at the hotel, which is honestly a godsend in this part of the city where finding a spot can be a nightmare.

The Room Experience

My room was smaller than what you’d get in a business hotel, but everything worked perfectly — and I actually appreciated the cozy feel after long days exploring the city. The air conditioning is solid (crucial during Delhi summers), and the bed was surprisingly comfortable. What impressed me most was how quiet it stayed despite being so close to the station — you know how train announcements can echo through neighborhoods, but somehow the rooms are well-insulated. The bathroom was compact but spotless, with hot water that actually stayed hot throughout my shower.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast spread focuses on vegetarian and Asian options, which works perfectly if you’re easing into Indian cuisine or if you’re vegetarian. They do a really good South Indian spread — the dosas were crispy and fresh, not the soggy ones you sometimes get at hotel buffets. The restaurant staff seemed genuinely interested in making sure everything was to your liking, and they were happy to adjust spice levels. It’s not elaborate, but it’s authentic and filling, which is exactly what you want before a day of sightseeing in Delhi’s heat.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets HILIFE Inn apart is how the staff treats you — there’s this genuine warmth that you don’t always find in budget accommodations. Couples seem to particularly appreciate the peaceful atmosphere once you’re inside, despite the bustling location outside. The 9.7 rating makes sense when you consider what you’re getting for the price point. It’s not trying to be something it’s not, but what it does — providing clean, comfortable rooms with helpful service in an unbeatable location — it does really well. If you want to experience authentic Delhi energy while having a reliable, quiet place to retreat to, this place hits that sweet spot perfectly.

Hotels near me in Delhi deliver metro rides to Qutub Minar, Dilli Haat food stalls, and designer boutiques in Aerocity.

Reviews of HILIFE Inn

• Rawat from India – 2 April 2025 (10/10)

  Room was very big and comfortable with 02 A.C.s …served full dinner at 11:20pm which was a commendable service…food was good and budget friendly. The hotel arranged for a Airport pickup which made things easy for us as it was almost 11pm when we reached the hotel. Next morning at 5:30am the hotel arranged us an Auto Rickshaw for just ₹100/- to New Delhi Railway Station which took 7 minutes.
