Delhi's HOTTEST Hotel? O Yes Sir Guest House! (NCR & New Delhi)
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the glorious, chaotic, potentially over-the-top world of O Yes Sir Guest House! (NCR & New Delhi). And trust me, after this deep dive, you'll either be booking a room faster than you can say "butter chicken" or running screaming into the Delhi smog. Let's get messy, shall we?
First thing's first: finding this place? Well, Accessibility is a mixed bag, just like Delhi itself. The website claims to be wheelchair-accessible, which is great, but navigating Delhi streets… let's just say it's an adventure. Expect a few bumps in the literal and figurative road.
Inside the Fortress of Fun (or Maybe Just Comfort?):
Okay, let's get real: I'm not exactly a seasoned pro at luxury. But O Yes Sir? It promises luxury. Let's see if it delivers.
Right, In-Room Fun & Games: Available in all rooms: Additional toilet, Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathroom phone, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
Holy moly, that's a lot of stuff. Let's break this down. Air conditioning is essential in Delhi. My first trip, I nearly melted. Thank god for AC. Free Wi-Fi – a must, baby! And a bathtub! After navigating the Delhi traffic, you'll NEED a bathtub. A nice, long, hot bath with complimentary tea sounds about right. I'll report back later if the "extra long bed" comes through.
Internet - OH THE GLORY OF INTERNET I'm not gonna lie. I'd be completely dysfunctional without Wi-Fi. And O Yes Sir's got it right. The fact that free Wi-Fi is in every room is massive. I can't live without the free wifi, so good on you, O Yes Sir. Internet [LAN] as well! I approve!!
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking – The Fuel for Delhi Adventures:
This is where things could get interesting. Let's be honest, you're in Delhi for the food!
- Restaurants: Promises of Asian cuisine, International cuisine, and even a Vegetarian restaurant are music to my ears! They also have a Coffee shop, which is a huge plus.
- Poolside bar: YES. Bring on the cocktails (or, you know, a refreshing nimbu pani).

- Snack bar: Good for those post-shopping cravings.
The happy hour promise makes me a happy camper. The desserts in restaurants sounds divine.
The Spa of Dreams (Or Maybe Just a Good Massage):
Here's where O Yes Sir really gets my attention. (Note: I haven't actually experienced this, yet. I'm basing all this on promises and dreams, people!)
- Spa/sauna, Body scrub, Body wrap, Massage, Steamroom, Foot bath: Okay, I am so in. After a day of battling traffic and pollution, I'd sell my firstborn for a deep tissue massage. The Pool with view sounds incredible.
- Fitness center, Gym/fitness: Look, I intend to use these. Maybe. After the massage. Okay, probably not. But the option is there, and I appreciate it.
- Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]: A swimming pool in Delhi? Pure bliss. Especially if that pool with a view I mentioned earlier is, you know, actually a view!
Cleanliness and Safety – Because, You Know, Real Life:
- Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer, Hygiene certification, Room sanitization opt-out available, Rooms sanitized between stays, Sanitized kitchen and tableware items, Staff trained in safety protocol, Sterilizing equipment: Okay, good. In a city like Delhi, cleanliness is key. This is a big point in their favor.
Services and Conveniences – The Little Things That Make a Difference:
- Concierge, Currency exchange, Cash withdrawal, Daily housekeeping, Doorman, Elevator, Laundry service, Luggage storage: All the things that make travel easier.
- Air conditioning in public area, Business facilities, Meeting/banquet facilities, Indoor venue for special events: If you're traveling for business and want to get away from the chaos of the city, good stuff.
- Gift/souvenir shop: Gotta grab those last-minute gifts!

Getting Around – Because Delhi is HUGE:
- Airport transfer, Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site], Taxi service, Valet parking: Airport transfer is a godsend (especially considering the Delhi traffic). Free parking is awesome, and valet parking is a luxury I'll gladly pay for.

Delhi Belly & The Existential Dread of Dusty Fans (Hotel O Yes Sir Guest House - Diary Entry)
Day 1: Arrival & The Great Dust Ball Hunt
Okay, deep breaths. Delhi. Here we are. Found the Hotel O Yes Sir Guest House, which, let's be honest, sounds less like a hotel and more like a polite command from a slightly sarcastic genie. The photos online… well, they were definitely enhanced. The reality is… well, let's call it "lived-in."
Checked in at what felt like a family reunion. Everyone's bustling around, speaking Hindi I can barely decipher, but somehow, I’ve got a key. My room screams budget. The sheets are a bit… questionable. Let’s just say I'm considering sleeping in my clothes. And the fan? Oh, the FAN. It's a majestic dust ball vortex. Every time I switch it on, I expect a miniature sandstorm to erupt. My first mission: locate a dustpan and broom. I'll be fighting a losing battle, I suspect.
Anecdote 1: Tried to ask the guy at the front desk (who, by the way, looks like he hasn't slept since the invention of the wheel) where I could find a decent cup of coffee. He just stared at me blankly for a solid minute. Then, through a haze of exhaustion, he mumbled something about “chai.” Chai it is, then. My caffeine needs will now apparently be met by the whims of the Indian tea gods.
Afternoon:
Ventured out. The chaos! The horns! The smells! It's sensory overload in the best, most bewildering way possible. Spent a good hour just observing. People zooming past on scooters with entire families precariously balanced. Cows nonchalantly strolling through traffic. A street vendor selling what I think were samosas, but they looked suspiciously like deep-fried mysteries. I’m a brave soul, but I’m also a cautious one. Samosas: future endeavor.
Quirky Observation: The sheer tenacity of the pigeons here is astounding. They basically rule the roost. They perch on anything and everything, unaffected by the general pandemonium. They’re the Zen Masters of Delhi, utterly unfazed. I wish I could be more pigeon.
Evening:
Dinner. Found a tiny, hole-in-the-wall place recommended by a very helpful (and slightly overly enthusiastic) blogger. Turns out, "spicy" in India means "feel the burn for the next 12 hours." My mouth is on fire. But the butter chicken… oh, the butter chicken! Worth every single tear-inducing bite. I'm pretty sure I now understand why people get addicted to this stuff.
Emotional Reaction: Absolutely ecstatic about that butter chicken. Seriously, I considered ordering another plate, even though my taste buds were threatening a mutiny.
Day 2: Red Fort, Rickshaw Rides & The Great Chai Conspiracy
So, woke up. Still alive! The dust bunnies, thankfully, did not attack. Chai was… an experience. Sweet, spicy, milky, and clearly the fuel of the Delhi population. Think I’m addicted. Or maybe it’s just the sheer convenience.
Morning:
Red Fort. Majestic. Huge. Overwhelming. The sheer scale of the place is mind-boggling. Spent a good couple of hours wandering around, pretending I knew what I was looking at. The history is rich, the architecture is stunning, and the crowds are… well, they are.
Imperfection: Got completely lost for a good twenty minutes, convinced I’d wandered into an alternate dimension filled with selfie sticks and bewildered tourists. Finally found my way out thanks to a kindly old man who spoke about three words of English but gestured profusely until I understood where I needed to go. Small victories, people. Small victories.
Afternoon:
Rickshaw ride! A thrilling, terrifying, and exhilarating experience all rolled into one. Wound my way through the narrowest alleys, dodging scooters and bewildered cows. The driver was a character – shouting greetings, waving at everyone, and clearly enjoying the chaos. I clung on for dear life, laughing until I thought I was going to throw up.
Rambling Thought: You know, this city is exhausting and exhilarating in equal measure. It's like being strapped to a rollercoaster that also occasionally tries to run you over. I have absolutely no idea what's going on half the time, but I'm also completely captivated.
Evening:
Doubling Down (Chai Edition): Decided to try and find the perfect cup of chai. This has become my personal quest. Went to five different chai wallahs (tea vendors), sampled their wares, and felt increasingly like I was getting sucked into a chai conspiracy. Each cup was slightly different - some stronger, some sweeter, some with more spices than a medieval apothecary. Finally found one that hit the spot. It was magical. I feel like I could conquer the world after that cup. Now, to find a refill.
Opinionated Language: Okay, seriously, those street dogs? Adorable. But I'm pretty sure the one I saw earlier was plotting world domination. He gave me a side-eye that could curdle milk.
Day 3: Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb, and the Quest for Cleanliness
Woke up, surprisingly well-rested, considering the dust situation. Decided today needed some serious culture.
Morning:
Qutub Minar. Towering. Impressive. More crowds. But the architecture is stunning, no doubt. Found myself completely lost in the details of the carvings and the sheer scale of the construction. Then, I tripped over my own feet while trying to take a picture and nearly took out a group of giggling school children. Grace, I have none.
Afternoon:
Humayun's Tomb. Even more beautiful than the pictures. The gardens are meticulously manicured and create a peaceful contrast to the bustling city. Felt like I was walking into a scene from a Bollywood movie. Then, a flock of pigeons decided to use me as a landing pad. Sigh.
Minor Category: The heat is relentless. Drinking water and avoiding direct sunlight is essential. That and finding a working air conditioner are essential. My hotel room is turning into a sauna.
Evening:
Back at Hotel O Yes Sir Guest House. The dust bunnies are rallying. Considering another attempt at a dustpan/broom raid. Have also discovered that my water pressure is non-existent. Taking a "shower" is more like standing under a drizzle and hoping for the best. Trying to find a restaurant that serves something other than spicy food for a change, but I am starting to think it's all a myth.
Strong Emotional Reaction: Honestly? I miss my own bed. And a decent shower. And a dust-free environment. But… This place. This crazy, chaotic, beautiful place… It's getting under my skin. Even with the dust, the heat, the questionable plumbing. Even… especially… with the chai. I think I'm falling a little bit in love with Delhi. And that, I think, is the most terrifying and wonderful thing of all.
Escape to Tranquility: Worthing, UK's Hidden Gem
Why is my cat ALWAYS on the counter? Seriously, WHAT is wrong with him/her/them?
Ugh, don't even GET me STARTED. This is a tale as old as time, a feline tragedy played out on the pristine surfaces of my kitchen. I've tried everything. Lemon juice (they like it, apparently! Bastards!). Tin foil (they LOVED that crunchy sound, which wasn't the point!). Double-sided tape (they got stuck, looked forlorn, and I felt like a monster). The answer, my friend, is a combination of things. Firstly, counter real estate is PRIME real estate. Warm, sunny spots? Check. A bird's-eye view of all the delicious things you're about to cook? Double-check. Secondly, it's probably about asserting dominance. "This is MY kingdom, human!" they seem to be saying. And frankly, I gave in. I’ve embraced the cat hair and the occasional paw print smeared across the counter. It’s just…life now. I just pre-wipe (and occasionally, angrily wipe) before food prep. It's a relationship. A messy, often begrudging one. And sometimes I think they just do it to make me utterly, completely, bonkers.
How do I deal with a partner who leaves their dirty socks EVERYWHERE?
Okay, real talk. This is a hill I have DIED on. Several times. It's not JUST the socks, is it? It's the principle! It’s the implication that someone, somewhere, thinks the floor is some kind of…sock-based storage facility! I've tried nice conversations. "Honey, would you mind?" Nope. Passive-aggressive notes? (That one backfired magnificently when I got a passive-aggressive note BACK, about my… *ahem*… "stray hair collection" in the bathroom. Touché.) I’ve even considered those automatic sock-collecting robots you see in sci-fi movies. Honestly, the best strategy? Choose your battles. And maybe…just maybe…secretly stash the offending socks under their pillow. (Don't tell anyone I said that). It's a war of attrition, my friend. And sometimes, you just… resign yourself to living in a sock-filled landscape. But don't worry, you're not alone. Many of us, fellow survivors of the Sockpocalypse, are out there.
What's the deal with social media and the constant striving for perfection? It’s exhausting!
Oh GOD, don’t even get me STARTED. The highlight reels. The filtered faces. The picture-perfect vacations that somehow, for them, ALWAYS involve posing with a smoothie in what appear to be the most picturesque tropical locations. Are they even *breathing* in real life, or are they just perpetually posed? Look, I'm as guilty as the next person of a strategically angled selfie, I'll admit it. But the constant pressure? It's… suffocating. It chips away at your self-esteem, makes you question your life choices (why aren't *I* on a yacht?!), and then you end up comparing your behind-the-scenes chaos with someone else's carefully curated masterpiece. Honestly? I just take breaks. Sometimes I delete the apps for a week. It's like cleansing the soul. Then, I come back and… well… the cycle starts again. But at least I'm *aware* of it now. Small victories, people, small victories.
Why can't I ever remember where I put my keys/phone/wallet? Is it a sign of early-onset dementia? (Probably.)
Okay, this one hits close to home. I've spent a *significant* portion of my life retracing my steps, muttering "Where ARE they?! Where ARE they?!" under my breath, like a crazed detective in a bad B-movie. My phone? Constantly lost. My keys? Frequently missing. My wallet? Last known location: approximately 15 minutes ago. Is it dementia? Maybe. Probably. But! I try to tell myself it's just… a busy life. A mind crammed full of…stuff. And, let's be honest, probably also fueled by a shocking lack of sleep and an over-reliance on caffeine. So, what do I do? I've got a key hook (that I often forget to use), a phone-finding app (that I always forget to activate), and a general sense of low-level panic. Plus, I tend to build a mental map of where I DIDN'T put them. It's a flawed system. It's a work in progress. Don't judge me. And if you happen to find my keys… call me. (But be warned: I'll probably forget where I put my phone when I answer.)
Why are receipts so long?! What is the point?
OH. MY. GOD. The receipts. They're like tiny, paper-thin scrolls of ancient wisdom that I'm *never* going to read. They're longer than the Declaration of Independence. They're longer than my grocery list, even on those weeks when I'm trying to become a health food guru (which always last approximately two days). Seriously, does anyone *actually* read them? I guess it has to do with the details, the legal stuff, the record-keeping business. But sometimes I think the people who design them are just trying to torture us. They roll and roll and roll, until they're inevitably crumpled at the bottom of my bag, alongside the lint and the forgotten lip balm. I hate them. I really, *really* hate them. I dream of a world where receipts are short, sweet, and to the point. "Coffee: $3.50." The end. Alas, I am stuck in a receipt-filled dystopia.
How do I stop procrastinating? (Asking for a friend… who is also me.)
AHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh, the irony of this question! Let me tell you, if I had the answer, I wouldn't be writing this right now. I'd be…oh, I don’t know, finishing that article I’ve been putting off for three months. Or cleaning my house. Or… well, ANYthing. The thing is, for me, it's not even a *conscious* decision. It just…happens. Suddenly I'm lost in the depths of YouTube videos about obscure topics, or reorganizing my spice rack for the fourth time this year. It's the art of turning something easy into something difficult. I've tried the Pomodoro Technique (30 minutes on, 5 minutes off). Didn't work. I've tried writing to-do lists (that I inevitably ignore). Didn't work. I’ve tried guilt trips (self-inflicted, of course). Didn't really work, either. The only thing that sometimes works is a self-inflicted deadline…and then, a frantic, sleep-deprived rush to get it done. It's a vicious cycle. I'm a work in progress. Also, don't judge me. And if you *do* have a magic solution… please, PLEASE share.
Why does my brain shut down at 3 pm?
