Delhi Sheraton
 
Just checking to see if anyone has stayed at the Sheraton in Saket.I will be staying there for one night in June but have never stayed there before.

That hotel was a Marriott until about a year ago. It is a nice hotel, not really a good location for a tourist (or if you have business in say the Connaught area), as it is rather far from most tourist sites. Otherwise, perfectly fine hotel. Rooms are a little on the small side, but fine. If given a choice, I would take a room not facing the street just to avoid noise, although it is not a main road and it not really noisy in any event, IMO.

If you have Sheraton points and are trying to use them, a better location would be The Mauyra (which I have erroneously indicated in some recent posts is no longer a Sheraton, it is, it is just a Luxury Collection now). This is in a much better location for a tourist or even for business depending on where you need to be.

Thanks Cicerone, I was looking for a hotel in south Delhi so that we would have a shorter drive to the airport in the morning for a 9:00am flight. I think The Grand is closed for renovations. I was not able to reach them. So I will report back on how this Sheraton is. On my way into India, I am staying at the Oberoi....which is hands down my favorite hotel in Delhi.

if it's just a short night stay, why not use the uppal's orchid ? its hardly 10-15 minutes to the airport and they will arrange the transfer too. radission is also there,10 minutes, but dangerously close to the fly-over which has been built recently.

We had a BAD experience at Uppal Orchid. We had a very early flight, they wouldn't let us check out because they wanted to charge us for using a laptop in our room (we had NO laptop); the shuttle to the airport did not arrive until the very last minute and we almost missed our flight to London; and the shuttle was NOT FREE as they had led us to believe.
