Hotel Aura – New Delhi Railway Station

Hotel Aura – New Delhi Railway Station Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Hotel Aura – New Delhi Railway Station on Arakashan Road, you immediately understand why this three-star property gets such solid reviews. It’s not trying to be something it isn’t — just a well-run hotel that knows exactly what travelers need when they’re navigating New Delhi. The lobby feels clean and organized, which honestly is exactly what you want after dealing with the controlled chaos of Paharganj’s streets outside.

Location Benefits

Here’s what I really appreciate about staying here — you’re literally a stone’s throw from New Delhi Railway Station, but you’re not dealing with the noise and crowds right at the station entrance. Arakashan Road gives you that sweet spot where you can walk to the railway station in minutes, but you’re also right in the heart of Paharganj’s backpacker district. You know what’s great? All those little travel agencies, money changers, and street food stalls are right outside, but the hotel itself feels like a quiet refuge from all that energy.

The Room Experience

The beds here are genuinely comfortable — and I mean that. After bouncing around India for a while, you start to really notice when a hotel actually invests in decent mattresses and pillows. The room I stayed in was compact but thoughtfully laid out, with enough space for luggage and a small desk area. The air conditioning works well (crucial in Delhi), and the bathroom was clean with reliable hot water. Nothing fancy, but everything you actually need functions properly.

Breakfast and Practical Perks

The buffet breakfast is surprisingly varied for a hotel in this price range — you’ll find both Indian options and some Western basics, which is perfect when you’re not sure what your stomach can handle on any given morning. What really sets this place apart though is the free private parking — if you’re dealing with a rental car or driver in Delhi, having secure parking without extra fees is honestly a huge relief. The staff at the front desk actually knows the area well and can give you solid directions for getting around the city.

Why Guests Love It

Couples seem to particularly appreciate this hotel, and I can see why — it strikes that balance between being centrally located and feeling safe and comfortable. You’re close enough to walk to Connaught Place or take a quick rickshaw ride to major attractions, but you’re not paying five-star prices for the privilege. The combination of reliable basics (good beds, working amenities, helpful staff) with that unbeatable location near the railway station makes it a smart choice, especially if you’re planning to explore other parts of India by train. It’s the kind of place where you can actually get a good night’s sleep before catching an early morning train or after a long journey.

Savvy travelers reserve a hotel in Delhi before cricket finals fill stadiums and traffic corridors.

  The location is good. Near New Delhi Rail Station, and New Delhi metro station. And there's a market nearby, you can find foods there.
