Mister and Art House

I found the guest house to be very cosy and relaxed, I was met on arrival at the airport and the transfer went well. I am very mindful that this is India and things are done in a different way, however if you ask for something then the staff at the guest house are always very helpful. Breakfast was included and was very good and they will cater to what you request. I am a bit of a scaredy cat so I never ventured out alone but others did and all went well. I also used their associated other 2 companies Inja Pink and Travel Buddies (masseurs) these were also booked and a 50% deposit paid 3 months before check in. The tours I had chosen were conducted very well and I was able make adjustments as required and nothing was ever an issue, the guide was excellent as well as the driver. I used the Travel Buddies twice and the first time I did the night time tour to the Gay Spa then we had dinner, we could have gone out to a Bar if wanted however I am in my 60’s and that was enough for me. The spa we went to was called Hermes and it was total Kaos, it was so bad I could not do anything but laugh it all worked out alright however would suggest you do your own research for another venue. The travel buddy was a lovely guy and he looked after me so well and a an excellent host. The second buddy took me shopping on my request we then went for a metro ride and also a tuk-tuk then went to have lunch at the Chore Bizarre Restaurant – set in an old Palace with wonderful Antiques and Arts, this place had a nice French bakery and coffee shop- suggest you try to go there- but bookings are advised. The masseurs were a total mess up in general I found that even though I had paid a 50% deposit that none was actually booked and the ones I had requested were not available, I did manage to book one of my choices a day latter, however he failed to materialize after 2 different excuses so my suggestion is wait till you arrive and then see who is actually available this was very disappointing for me as this one of the main reasons that attracted me to this guest house and to Delhi for that matter so it really let the rating of the guest house down as 1 of the 3 main services they offered to a gay traveller were not delivered- not good in my books. Best time to travel to India is after 15th Oct – 30 Nov. In conclusion: you could stay elsewhere in a hotel and still use the tour and the Buddy service and book your own massages to come to your hotel. For me I felt very let down and disappointed.

I stayed there in January and it was cold. I asked for a small heater. They gave me one and asked me to pay the day after for renting it. Unbelievable that you pay so much for a big room but you need to pay for very basic equipment.
