The Red Fox Hotel, Delhi Airport is a bright budget airport hotel with 207 rooms and suites. All have simple, modern furnishings and flat-screen TVs plus air-conditioning and mini-fridges. Amenities include a modern fitness center with a good selection of weight-training and cardio equipment, a conference room, and a cafe serving Indian and international cuisine, plus 24-hour room service. Wi-Fi is free for one device, but high-speed internet and multiple device use costs extra. Also, there's no airport shuttle service, which is a bit surprising given its location near IGI. Travelers looking for something a bit more upscale with a pool may prefer the Radisson Blu, right across from the airport.

Located on Arakshan Road, a busy strip of hotels in the Paharganj neighborhood near New Delhi Railway Station, the Hotel Godwin Deluxe is a mid-range property with far nicer facilities than typical of the neighborhood. The 26 modern rooms have wood floors, molded ceilings, and chic bathrooms with walk-in showers, plus extras such as minibars and electric kettles. Other features include free hotel-wide Wi-Fi, free airport pick-ups, and a free breakfast buffet with Indian and international dishes in the hotel's on-site restaurant. While this hotel is a great value for the area, it's removed from the backpacker enclave around Paharganj's main bazaar area. Backpackers looking for a more social environment might be better off staying at the slightly cheaper Hotel Hari Piorko instead.

The Claridges New Delhi is a four-pearl business hotel located in central Delhi, a part of town characterized by broad, tree-lined boulevards and stately colonial bungalows. The 132 rooms here are a bit dated and bland -- underwhelming for a hotel with luxury ambitions -- though some suites have jetted tubs. Amenities include a smallish pool, a fitness center, a spa, and plenty of meeting space. The restaurants are the biggest draw, particularly Dhaba, an upmarket rendition of traditional North Indian roadside eateries. The hotel dates back to 1952 and while some might find it charming in an old-fashioned kind of way, others might find some of the grounds and common areas sorely in need of an update. Travelers looking for something more modern may want to fork out a little extra cash to stay at the elegant Lodhi just down the road.

La Sagrita is a mid-range boutique hotel located in Sundar Nagar, a leafy, upscale residential neighborhood on the eastern end of Central Delhi, on the border of the lush National Zoologic Park. The 19 rooms here are pleasantly furnished with wood floors and neutral decor, and the marble bathrooms add a luxurious touch, but some past guests have complained of maintenance issues. Hotel amenities include free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour business center, and a 24-hour restaurant serving Indian and international cuisine, with room service around the clock. However, there's no fitness center, so those who want to work out might prefer the nearby Vivanta by Taj Ambassador, which is noisier but has all the perks of La Sagrita, plus a small gym.

The four-and-a-half-pearl Crowne Plaza Today New Delhi is a luxurious hotel with lots of bells and whistles, though it's quite a hike from Delhi's city center. Expect to rely on taxis to get around, and drives of 30 to 45 minutes to spots like Connaught Place or trendy Hauz Khas Village. Even so, the hotel has enough to keep guests entertained, as there are great restaurants and lounges, a fitness center, spa, and a nice outdoor pool. Several meeting rooms cater for the many corporate guests, and Wi-Fi is free. The 208 rooms are spacious and sharp, with air-conditioning, minibars, and marble bathrooms featuring separate showers and rainfall showers. If you're looking for a polished option closer to the action in central Delhi, check out Shangri-La's Eros Hotel instead.

The Delhi Bed and Breakfast is a good value, two-and-a-half-pearl homestay located in the South Delhi Friends Colony East neighborhood, not to far from the Lotus Temple. There are only three rooms here, and all are homey and cozy, with locally crafted decor, flat-screen TVs with DVD players, and air-conditioning. There aren't a ton of amenities, though breakfast is included in room rates and the owners provide reverse osmosis-filtered water that's safe to drink -- a boon for those who don't want to waste plastic (or money) buying lots of small bottles. There's also a kids' computer, and adults' computer, and free hotel-wide Wi-Fi. Those looking to be closer to the city center and the Paharganj neighborhood should consider the Hotel Godwin Deluxe, which has modern rooms and lower rates.

The Four Points by Sheraton is an upper-middle-range business hotel a short drive from the New Delhi International Airport. Typical for an airport hotel, there's not much to see in the immediate vicinity, but it's a good place to get a day of rest after a long flight and many bookings include free airport transfers. There are 70 rooms plus one suite in total, all of which have contemporary, if plain, decor. Features are geared at business travelers and transit guests and include a simple fitness center, a 24-hour restaurant with room service, and event spaces. While it's a good place to stay if you need to be near the airport, Vivanta by Taj - Ambassador is a better option for those who want easy access to Delhi attractions.

With an excellent location in Central Delhi, the upper-middle-range Hotel The Royal Plaza is a convenient place to stay for tourists and business travelers alike, but the interiors are dated. The 445 rooms and suites are small and not particularly well-maintained, and thin walls means that noise travels between units quickly. Features include multiple restaurants -- most notably a rooftop bar and lounge with great city views -- plus a modern fitness center, an outdoor lagoon pool, a spa with Ayurvedic treatments, and five conference rooms for rent. Those willing to sacrifice the great location here could find much more modern rooms for the price at Radisson Blu Hotel New Delhi Dwarka.

The Fraser Suites is an upscale property in East Delhi's Mayur Vihar neighborhood with long-stay guests in mind. The 92 rooms here come in Studio, One-, and Two-Bedroom varieties, and all have kitchens, many with washing machines. The look is contemporary -- with dark furniture and light wood floors -- if generic throughout the hotel. Features include a small rooftop pool, a game room, and a couple of meeting rooms, plus a free breakfast in the hotel's 24-hour restaurant. While this hotel is a reasonable choice for long-term business travelers who want kitchens -- and the metro is an eight-minute walk away -- tourists are better off staying somewhere closer to town, such as the Raddison Blu Marina in Connaught Circus. Keep in mind that rates there will be higher.

Located in West Delhi's Janakpuri neighborhood, Shanti Home is a mid-range property that's popular with domestic travelers, but may not be the best choice for those wanting to be near tourist sights. It has only 17 rooms, which allows for more personalized service, and each has a quintessentially Indian feel based on a region or theme. There are plenty of amenities for a hotel of this size, including a terrace restaurant, cooking classes, and a small fitness center. Travelers wanting to be closer to the tourist attractions may want to compare rates and amenities at one of the more centrally located properties, such as Hotel Bright in Connaught Place.
