The Property — Round D Clock
Round D Clock is a no-frills 3-star hotel in central Delhi, with a tired but clean lobby that smells of air freshener and brewing tea. The USP is its location near Connaught Place, useful for budget travellers who want to be within walking distance of Metro lines and the main shopping hub. It suits independent tourists and small business travellers who need a bed and Wi‑Fi without paying for frills.
Chronicles of Delhi
Delhi has been continuously inhabited since the 6th century BCE, with the city of Indraprastha mentioned in the Mahabharata. Successive empires—from the Tomaras and Chauhans to the Delhi Sultanate and Mughals—left layered architecture, including the Qutb Minar and Red Fort. The British built New Delhi as an imperial capital from 1911, designing wide boulevards and large roundabouts. Today Delhi is a sprawling metropolis that fuses Mughal gardens, colonial avenues, and modern high‑rises, and remains India’s political and cultural nerve centre.
Best Time to Visit
Full Delhi guide →Best months
October to March. Cool weather (15–25°C) and clear skies make sightseeing comfortable. Diwali (October/November) and Republic Day (January) draw manageable crowds if you book ahead.
Peak / festival surge
October to February is peak season, with high demand during Diwali (Oct–Nov) and the Republic Day parade (Jan 26). Hotel prices can double; booking three months in advance is essential.
Budget shoulder season
March and April see milder heat (up to 35°C) but fewer tourists; room rates drop 20–30%. September after monsoon is another shoulder window with greenery and lower prices.
Weather & packing
Delhi’s climate is extreme: summers hit 45°C with dust storms, while winters dip to 5°C. From July 2–3, bring light cotton clothes, sunglasses, an umbrella for monsoon downpours, and a reusable water bottle.
Live City Briefing — Delhi
- Delhi Metro now runs a direct Airport Express line from New Delhi station to IGI Airport in 20 minutes. The Janpath and Rajiv Chowk stations near Round D Clock are connected, giving easy access.
- Connaught Place’s outer circle has several new food markets open late; try Saravana Bhavan for South Indian thalis or the underground Palika Bazaar for cheap electronics.
- The city’s odd‑even vehicle rationing scheme may be in effect during severe smog days in winter, but in July the risk is low—air pollution from traffic and construction remains moderate.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Round D Clock, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request

Rooms to avoid

Best views

🔊 Noise notes
Main road traffic noise is constant, especially during morning and evening rush hours. Expect horns, auto-rickshaws, and occasional truck rumble. Lift motor noise may be audible on adjacent rooms.
Insider tips
Request a room on the 5th floor during check-in—it's high enough for quiet but quick to reach via stairs if the lift queue builds. If you're sensitive to noise, pack earplugs; the hotel's 3-star status means thinner windows.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
