How to Get Around New Delhi from The Beaufort Inn

Three stations give you different ways to start a journey from the inn: Lajpat Nagar for Metro connections, Hazrat Nizamuddin Junction for rail, and Jangpura for another Violet Line access point.

Lajpat Nagar is about a 13-minute walk from The Beaufort Inn. Choose a station based on the line or train you need rather than assuming the nearest station will fit every trip.

For a local day on foot, landmarks around Nizamuddin can be paired with these station journeys. A Nizamuddin day route connects several nearby places into a practical outing.

Lajpat Nagar is a useful Metro interchange for connecting across the city: it serves both the Violet Line and the Pink Line.

The Delhi Metro operational network map labels Lajpat Nagar and Jangpura on the Violet Line. Nearby stations include Jangpura, Moolchand, South Extension and Vinobapuri. Check the network map for the route and interchange points that match your destination; station names alone do not show the full journey.

Lajpat Nagar station’s opening time is 5:36 AM and closing time is 11:41 PM. Separate first- and last-train information is available for weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Timings and service details can change, so check the official site before you go.

Hazrat Nizamuddin Junction is a nearby option for journeys by train, with a car journey taking about 10 minutes or a walk taking about 18 minutes from the inn.

Delhi Traffic Police has an optional prepaid taxi booth at the railway station that operates day and night. Prepaid taxi and three-wheeler booths issue a receipt showing the vehicle number, destination, service charges, any baggage charge and fare. Keep the receipt as a record of the journey details.

A 24-hour bus route from Terminal 3 serves New Delhi railway station, Old Delhi railway station and ISBT, as well as Terminal 1 and Dhaula Kuan. That route is useful if you are already travelling through Terminal 3; it is not a direct connection from the inn.

Cars can help with destinations that take longer on foot or journeys with luggage. New Delhi city centre is about 30 minutes away by car, while the walk takes about 97 minutes. Indira Gandhi International Airport is about 74 minutes away by car.

Delhi Airport provides app-based cabs, prepaid and fixed-rate taxis, and car rentals outside the arrivals zone at Terminals 1 and 2. At Terminal 3, the options include those services and Evera electric cabs at the multi-level car park, Level 0. Cab options at all three terminals are available 24 hours a day.

Delhi Traffic Police has optional prepaid taxi and three-wheeler booths at the airport terminals, operating day and night. There are four booth locations at Terminal 1, two at Terminal 2 and four at Terminal 3.

The airport bus service runs around the clock every 30 minutes. A free inter-terminal shuttle runs every 20 minutes; passengers are instructed to show a boarding pass at the kiosks for a transit-bus coupon.

For arrival planning, the guide to getting from Indira Gandhi International Airport to The Beaufort Inn covers the airport-to-hotel journey.

Several landmarks around Nizamuddin can be grouped into a local outing, including the Tomb of Abdul Rahim Khan-i-Khanan and Sabz Burj.

Chausath Khamba, Barakhamba’s Tomb, Nizamuddin Dargah, the Nizamuddin Dargah Complex and Arab Sarai are other nearby places to include in a route.

Humayun’s Tomb is another option for a visit in the area. The Humayun’s Tomb visitor guide covers tickets, hours and what to see.
