We picked Tara Palace because of the location which is great, within easy walking distance of the Mosque, the old city, and the Red Fort. (It is easy... to get a tut-tut to other sightseeing areas but you need to negotiate). The hotel was clean and the room spotless. Shower worked well and water was hot and even though there was no shower curtain the water did not spritz everywhere. Staff very accommodating including arranging airport pickup. They gave us a 24 hr. phone number for emergencies. Breakfast was fine, not buffet but had several choices. We found the travel agent across the alley from the hotel was very helpful in planning our stay, making hotel bookings, arranging a driver for us, etc. We worked with Mubarak and he was pleasant, had good English, and was not pushy. The hotel put us in touch with him. The only negative I have is that the area around the hotel is not great, and the hotel itself is down a small alley so is hard to find at first. However, it is not an unsafe area, just an old city area. We found the room quiet and we feel the hotel is very good value for the money. Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Dec 19, 2012
