Hotel Gold Palace – 03 Mins Walk From New Delhi Railway Station

Hotel Gold Palace – 03 Mins Walk From New Delhi Railway Station Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Hotel Gold Palace – 03 Mins Walk From New Delhi Railway Station, you immediately understand why this three-star property gets such high marks from guests. It’s not trying to be something it isn’t — instead, it delivers exactly what weary travelers need when they roll into New Delhi. The lobby feels clean and welcoming, which honestly means everything when you’ve just survived Indian rail travel. You know what really struck me? The staff actually seems to care about getting you settled quickly, not just going through the motions.

Location That Actually Works

Here’s the thing about Paharganj — it’s chaotic, sure, but it’s also incredibly practical for travelers. The hotel sits right in the heart of Main Bazar, which means you’re literally three minutes from New Delhi Railway Station (they’re not exaggerating about that). I mean, you can practically hear the trains, but that’s actually reassuring when you have an early morning departure. The area buzzes with backpackers, budget travelers, and locals, so there’s always something happening. Plus, couples seem to really appreciate the location — they’ve rated it 8.7, which makes sense because you can easily walk to Connaught Place or catch transport anywhere in the city.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was smaller than what you’d find at international chains, but it was thoughtfully designed for the space. Everything you need is there — decent air conditioning (crucial in Delhi), a clean bathroom, and surprisingly comfortable beds. The Wi-Fi actually works, which isn’t always a given in this part of town. What I appreciated most was how quiet it felt once you closed the door, despite being in such a busy neighborhood. The housekeeping staff keeps things spotless, and honestly, that attention to cleanliness sets this place apart from other budget options in Paharganj.

Food and Practical Matters

The breakfast situation is pretty solid — they focus on vegetarian and Asian options, which makes perfect sense given the location and clientele. It’s not elaborate, but it’s fresh and filling, exactly what you want before heading out to explore Delhi. The restaurant area feels comfortable enough to linger over chai if you’re planning your day. There’s no parking on-site, but let’s be real — you don’t want to drive in this part of Delhi anyway. The hotel staff can help arrange rickshaws or point you toward the metro, which is honestly much more practical.

Why Guests Love It

Recent guests have rated the location 8.5, and after staying here, I totally get why. It’s that sweet spot where you’re close enough to everything that matters but not paying premium prices for unnecessary frills. The 8.4 overall rating reflects what this hotel does well — it focuses on the basics that actually matter to travelers. You’re getting solid value, a genuinely helpful staff, and a location that puts you right in the middle of Delhi’s energy without the chaos overwhelming your stay. For anyone arriving by train or looking to explore Old Delhi, this place just makes sense.

  Reception is very helpful, location is near delhi station but quite far from airport line or metro
  
  Room is clean
  
  The next day room is not make up, even i hang the "please clean my room"
  I think i should turn on the switch for room cleanup near the bed

• Gerald from Australia – 27 March 2025 (7/10)

  Stayed 2 nights. Great location if you wish to experience the market buzz of real Delhi. The bathroom was clean and modern (recently renovated) but is small and could have used a glass panel to prevent splashing onto the toilet seat. Hor water takes a little time to come through but good. Bed was omfortable but needs more than two pillows. It's quite noisy in the evening but settles around midnight so you still get a good sleep. Air con is very efficient. Fridge works (make sure you turn it on). Unserviceable but will replace towels etc if you ask. Price of accomodation is highly variable. Can be very cheap but in the time we stayed the price was pricey for the time we stayed. Service was very good. Breakfast was good particularly for the range of Indian food.
  Overall, good for an overnight stay to enjoy the buzz experience.

• Helen from United Kingdom – 28 February 2025 (9/10)

  Excellent staff. Nothing too much trouble. Always polite and helpful. Especially the manager Manoj who went the extra mile for us. Great position in Bazaar Road. Really buzzy and close to a few good restaurants. Good choice of food at breakfast too. We especially enjoyed the roof top bar. Great place to end the evening.
  
  What could be improved: Our rooms didn’t have windows. We were told we had been upgraded so it seemed a little strange that it was windowless. That’s my only complaint.

• Penelope from United Kingdom – 28 February 2025 (9/10)

  The room and bathroom were clean and well maintained. The bed was comfortable. The shower was good and everything worked.
  The staff were helpful and polite.
  The location is great for the railway station and main bazaar rd.
  There are a number of restaurants and bars near by.
  
  What could be improved: The room was quite small but we were only there one night.
  We had a long wait in the restaurant before someone came to take our breakfast order. Breakfast was ok.

• Caroline from Australia – 13 February 2025 (9/10)

• Supun from Sri Lanka – 30 November 2024 (7/10)

  * The location is at the main bazaar in New Delhi, which is located in most busiest lane in New Delhi.
  * But when we entered the hotel, its absolutely different from the place, that its situated, and the room are very comfortable and 90 % sound proof and its mostly look like the photos that shown in the pictures.
  * Meals are good and affordable.
  * Rooms and bathrooms are clean.
  * Staff good.
  
  What could be improved: The hotel is situated in the most busiest lane in New Delhi. Lots of Tuk Tuk, Motor bicycles and electric tricycles are going here and there with making noises. (But inside The Hotel is calm)
