An Oasis for Weary Travellers: Transit Hotel at Delhi Airport

The Hollywood film, Terminal, brought into the spotlight the plight of transit passengers. Although the circumstances for the protagonist played by Tom Hanks, were different, many of us have endured a night of discomfort on uncomfortable airport chairs while waiting for connecting flights. Airport facilities have improved drastically over the years and Delhi airport especially has excellent facilities. In fact, Delhi Airport has just been awarded #1 in the ASQ Survey 2017.

Delhi Airport provides the comfort of booking a hotel in the terminal itself. You can check-in to Delhi Airport's, Holiday Inn Express, at any time, 24x7. It is located inside the airport, just a short walk from the departure gates for boarding, and offers luxuries at par with the finest hotels and at unbelievably reasonable rates. There are various room types for all budgets, of course, but you do get free Wi-Fi, a comfortable bed for the night and a chance to wake up to the smell of coffee, a power shower and complimentary Free Express Start Breakfast. The booking to this hotel can also be made online from Delhi Airport's website.

The hotel also offers a 24-hour accessible gym to keep up with your fitness regime, an in-house spa for a bit of pampering, a host of business facilities and a round-the-clock multi-cuisine restaurant. Travellers in need of freshening up pre-flight or those with shorter stopovers can use the hotel's unique and innovative Aqua Pods.

Delhi Airport has consistently focused on raising its game for passenger convenience.
