Best rooms
Request a room facing the rear of the building to avoid street noise, especially if the hotel fronts a main road. Higher floors often have less footfall in corridors.
Request a room on a higher floor (4th or 5th) for a quieter stay, as the lower floors (1st to 3rd) may experience more street noise from Connaught Place.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms next to the lift, stairs or service rooms (e.g. linen cupboards, vending areas) as they get early morning and late night disturbance. Ground floor rooms may also be louder from passers-by and lobby noise.
Rooms near the lift (elevator) on the lower floors (1st to 3rd) may be noisier due to frequent use.
