Hotel Festival Mahipalpur At Delhi Airport

Hotel Festival Mahipalpur At Delhi Airport Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Hotel Festival Mahipalpur At Delhi Airport, you immediately get that “this place knows what it’s doing” vibe. It’s not trying to be something it isn’t — this three-star property sits comfortably in its lane as a solid, well-run hotel that actually understands what travelers need. The lobby feels fresh and modern without being flashy, and honestly, after dealing with Delhi traffic or a long flight, that’s exactly what you want.

Location That Actually Works

Here’s the thing about staying near Indira Gandhi Airport — location is everything, and this place nailed it. You’re literally minutes from the terminals, but you know what’s brilliant? You’re also close enough to Aerocity that you can grab a decent meal or do some last-minute shopping without the hassle of going into central New Delhi. I mean, couples are rating the location 8.6 out of 10, and that’s not just because it’s close to the airport — it’s because the whole Mahipalpur area has become this little hub that actually works for travelers.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was exactly what I hoped for — clean, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet considering how close you are to one of India’s busiest airports. The beds are properly firm (thank goodness), and there’s enough space to actually unpack your suitcase without playing Tetris with your luggage. Air conditioning works like a dream, which — let’s be honest — is non-negotiable in Delhi. The bathroom’s modern and the water pressure is solid, though I’d recommend bringing your own toiletries if you’re particular about brands.

Breakfast and Dining

The breakfast spread here actually impressed me more than I expected. They’ve got this buffet setup that covers all the bases — Continental options for international travelers, proper Asian dishes, and they’re surprisingly good with vegetarian and vegan choices. The restaurant staff seems to genuinely care about dietary restrictions, which isn’t always a given. I particularly loved that they do fresh parathas in the morning — it’s those little local touches that make the difference between just another airport hotel and somewhere you’d actually want to stay.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is the attention to practical details. Free parking might not sound exciting, but when you’re dealing with Delhi traffic and airport logistics, it’s huge. The 8.5 rating isn’t just numbers — you can feel it in how smoothly everything runs. Staff actually knows the flight schedules and can help with timing, the WiFi works properly throughout the building, and checkout is refreshingly efficient. It’s one of those places where you realize that sometimes the best hotels aren’t the fanciest ones — they’re the ones that just make your life easier.

Reviews of Hotel Festival Mahipalpur At Delhi Airport

• David from United Kingdom – 15 April 2025 (9/10)

  An excellent and economical overnight stay near the airport that, unlike many of the airport hotels, is genuine and is where it says it is. The rooms are clean, comfortable with everything working. The staff were really helpful and friendly. The airport transfer worked well so we were rested, relaxed and ready for our flight home the following morning.
  
  What could be improved: This wasn't really a problem but finding it wasn't straightforward, here's the details. It's on the road as shown on Google maps but 20m down a side street that runs beside the Festival Pearl Hotel. Finding the Pearl is easy then look for the side street. It would be good if there were tea and coffee making facilities in room especially as it's customers will be arriving and leaving at all hours.

• Catherine from United States – 22 October 2024 (9/10)

  I highly recommend the Hotel Festival Mahipalput at Delhi Airport. Excellent location away from loud busy streets, crowds and traffic.
  
  We walked to the Mahipalput Metro to the Indira Gandhi International Airport. Very easy on the budget, good walk and time saver.
  
  This lovely recently redecorated and updated hotel is a respite for quiet, attractiveness, welcoming staff and convenience. My knees appreciated the new elevator as I didn't have to carry 2 pieces of luggage.
  
  There is a lovely entrance of marble to the elevator and comfortable easy restaurant where we enjoyed omelets, fresh juice and delicious chai after a good nights sleep uninterrupted by traffic or crowd noise.
  
  Rested and fed we are off to an appointment at the US Embassy, Lodhi Gardens for luscious green space in the middle of new Delhi. After that we will go to the Most beautiful Bahai Lotus Temple to experience the tribute to the nine prominent religions of the world 🌏.
  
  What could be improved: It’s a little challenging to find so be sure you have the directions. You will appreciate this tucked away hotel from nearby thoroughfares.
  
  We will return to this well located, updated and very helpful and good natured staff, very clean and comfortable hotel especially when we want to be close the the Delhi Airport.
