What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Soft ochres and eggshells demonstrate upscale design sensibilities — thus the attention lavished on the four-piece bathrooms, complete with rain shower, oversize tubs.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Aerocity's Worldmark dining hub is a short walk away, alongside fast metro links into central Delhi.
The rooms
Warm timber floors and soft ochre walls lead to spacious bathrooms fitted with oversize soaking tubs.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
An outdoor infinity pool stretches across the rooftop, looking out over Aerocity and the airport runways.
The spa and gym
Treatment suites at Aheli Spa open onto private balconies, and the Technogym-fitted fitness room sits beneath a central skylight.
Restaurant
DEL
The all-day bistro takes its name from Delhi's airport code, with dining tables looking out onto a bamboo courtyard.
At the table
Tandoor ovens roast North Indian specialties under hanging metallic bells at Kheer, steps from an intimate cocktail lounge.
How it began

Artist duo Thukral and Tagra directed the visual aesthetic when the purpose-built property opened in 2016.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
