Welcome To

Thikana Delhi

Welcome to Thikana Delhi—a serene and soulful retreat in the heart of South Delhi. The word Thikana, rooted in Hindi, translates to “the place to which you belong,” and that spirit infuses every aspect of your stay with us.

Tucked away in the quiet, tree-lined lanes of Gulmohar Park, our boutique bed and breakfast is just minutes from cultural and lifestyle destinations like Hauz Khas Village, Shahpur Jat, Greater Kailash, and Green Park. We're also just a 10-minute walk from the Green Park Metro Station, providing convenient access to both iconic landmarks and modern city hubs. Whether you're visiting AIIMS, Siri Fort, or Delhi's buzzing marketplaces, you're perfectly placed.

Since opening our doors in 2008, we’ve welcomed travellers from around the world—not just as guests, but as part of our extended Thikana family. With six thoughtfully designed rooms, warm hospitality, and the personal attention of a boutique stay, Thikana offers a rare combination of modern comfort, Indian hospitality, and authentic local experiences.

We’re ideal for business travellers, solo explorers, and families seeking a peaceful, well- connected home base in Delhi—one that offers both calm and character.

Your Hosts

Atul & Sheetal Bhalla

Your hosts, Atul and Sheetal Bhalla, are lifelong residents of Delhi and passionate travellers themselves. They created Thikana Delhi as a space for cultural exchange, warm conversation, and a genuine taste of local living in India’s bustling capital.

Atul is a connoisseur of music and film, known for his eclectic taste—from Sufi rock to silent cinema. Many evenings at Thikana are brought to life by his curated playlists or movie nights, adding to the relaxed, lived-in charm of the home.

Sheetal has a deep appreciation for Delhi’s layered history, evolving arts scene, and vibrant food culture. She’s always ready with thoughtful recommendations—whether it's a hidden gallery in the Saket District, a craft market near INA, yoga in Lodi Gardens, an authentic Indian restaurant in Defence Colony, or the perfect chaat stand near Siri Fort. Her suggestions help guests experience Delhi like a resident, not just a visitor.

Their combined warmth, curiosity, and attention to detail have made Thikana Delhi much more than just a place to stay—it’s a meaningful, personalised experience. Whether you need help planning your day, discovering a local gem, or arranging a home-cooked meal, Atul and Sheetal are just a message away.
