Testimonials

On The House has been approved by Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, under its Bed & Breakfast Scheme in Gold Category and has been adjudged as the best in its category in Delhi. It is regularly featured in national magazines like India Today and trade papers/journals (Mint-HT Group), highlighting its excellent facilities. Most recently On The House was featured in the April 2009 issue of JetWings International - the in flight magazine of Jet Airways, as one of Delhi's top five B&Bs. It has received 'excellent' reviews from guests who have stayed here on TripAdvisor

This small bed & breakfast holds the key to any business person’s heart – fast wireless internet at no extra cost. Patrons can sign on to the web on their laptops and spend the night preparing for the next days’ meeting.
The bedrooms are spacious with room for a seating area, a desk and a bed. After a nightcap in the main room guests can slip away to their rooms to work, watch television or sleep. The owner Aradhna Lanba who is also an interior decorator has recently redone the rooms in bright, cheerful colors.
The bed & breakfast also has a well-stocked bookcase, obviously chosen with care. And if you really can’t sleep, you can play monopoly, checkers or dominoes from the games closet. The whole place has the feel of your friend’s mother’s home, but if that’s the case the mother keeps out of the way and lets you unwind as you see fit ……  Mint Newspaper September 22, 2007.

It was our home in India and the caretaker and his wife became our friends. The location and rooms were great and the service fantastic. We arrived and left at very awkward hours but they were always happy to help. They also helped us arrange for shopping trips and taxis. I would highly recommend On The House to anyone wishing for a more intimate stay. When we return we will be staying here without doubt. A real gem.”
