The Property — Goodwill Hotel
The Goodwill Hotel is a dependable 3-star business hotel off the Delhi–Mathura road, with a clean lobby of polished marble and a front desk that moves fast. Rooms are small but functional, with good air conditioning and solid Wi-Fi. It suits corporate travellers stopping over for the Delhi–Faridabad industrial corridor, or families wanting a quiet, no-frills base near Surajkund. This is not a resort; it's a sharp, efficient spot to sleep and move on.
Chronicles of Faridabad
Faridabad was founded in 1607 by Sheikh Farid, the treasurer of Emperor Jahangir, who built a fort and a tank to protect a trade route. After Partition in 1947, the city absorbed thousands of refugees from Pakistan and was developed as an industrial satellite of Delhi. Its architecture is a practical mix of 1950s government blocks, later residential colonies and large factory estates. Today Faridabad is a major manufacturing hub for tractors, footwear and auto parts, with a growing middle-class culture. The old town near the fort still has narrow lanes and bazaars, while the newer sectors have malls and flyovers that push traffic into Delhi.
Best Time to Visit
Full Faridabad guide →Best months
October, November and March: pleasant daytime temperatures of 25–30°C, low humidity, clear skies and no rain; good for sightseeing without the winter smog or summer heat.
Peak / festival surge
April to June: temperatures regularly hit 42–45°C; the city empties as locals avoid the heat, but hotel prices stay moderate at 3-star level because business travel drops; no festivals drive demand in July, but the monsoon starts with relief and occasional flooding on main roads.
Budget shoulder season
September and February: September has just-cooled monsoon air and fewer tourists, February is cool but with some morning fog; both offer quieter stays and roughly 15–20% lower rates compared to the high season.
Weather & packing
July in Faridabad is the monsoon's core: sticky humidity at 70–85%, heavy downpours in the afternoon and temperatures around 34°C. Pack quick-dry clothing, a compact umbrella and waterproof shoes; avoid cotton that stays wet all day.
