I stayed at The Imperial in Delhi for three weeks, and one of my biggest regrets is not discovering the Imperial Lounge earlier during my stay. The service here is truly outstanding. From the moment you walk in, the staff and managers make every effort to make you feel at home, always warm, attentive, and incredibly accommodating. The food was excellent, the drinks were exceptional, and the overall atmosphere is unlike anywhere else. The hotel carries a beautiful pre-independence charm that feels almost like stepping into a living museum filled with history and character. What truly makes this place special, however, is the people. Every member of the staff was gracious, kind, and delivered top-tier service consistently throughout my visits. Sometimes, all you really want after a long day is service with a genuine smile — and the wonderful ladies at the lounge made every visit memorable with their hospitality. Get the lounge included in your stay, if possible! Awesome experience. Definitely a Fine Resort Hotel!

The Imperial is incredible. An excellent stay. The rooms are large, clean, and very comfortable. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the hotel has great air conditioning. Concierge Siddiqui, driver Bhudev, and massage therapist Aspin are tops in their fields. The staff at this hotel rivals any 5* in the world. Completely amazing. I was truly at home at this hotel. Will return most definitely.

This is a Five Star Hotel. The hotel was impeccable and was filled with antiques and old photographs. The Breakfast buffet was outstanding as was the service. Dining and bar options available allowed us to relax and rejuvinate from hectic Dehli without ever leaving the property. All staff were attentive and welcoming.
