Bloom Golf Course Road: Delhi NCR's Most Luxurious Escape?
Bloom Golf Course Road: Delhi NCR's Most Luxurious Escape? - A Glimpse Behind the Velvet Rope (and Maybe Some Coffee Stains)
Alright, buckle up buttercups. Let's talk Bloom Golf Course Road. "Most Luxurious Escape?" Bold words. Let's see if they hold water, shall we? I just got back, and, well… let's just say my expectations tangoed wildly with reality. Prepare for a journey through the highs, the lows, and the slightly bewildering moments. Think less polished brochure, more… well, me, rambling after a particularly potent espresso.
Accessibility: Smooth Sailing (Mostly)
First things first: getting there. Accessibility is thankfully a pretty big deal these days. The review started off well. Getting there was not an issue. Airport transfer was seamless. My ride was comfy. The traffic, however, is a beast of its own, but hey, that's Delhi, right? Also, getting in and out wasn't an issue.
Wheelchair accessible: I can't personally verify this, but the facilities list it, which is a good sign. Elevator is present, which is a must.
The Tech Stuff: Bless the Wi-Fi Gods!
Okay, crucial for my sanity: Internet access. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Hallelujah! Worked like a charm. Internet [LAN]? Didn't need it, but it's there if you crave the wired life. Internet services are generally solid, and Wi-Fi in public areas was also dependable. So, a big thumbs up on the connectivity front.
Sanitizing & Safety: Germaphobes, Breathe Easy!
Listen, I'm not a total germaphobe, but post-pandemic, I’m aware. Cleanliness and safety are crucial. Bloom is on it. HUGE points for Anti-viral cleaning products. They go above and beyond. Daily disinfection in common areas, Rooms sanitized between stays, and Staff trained in safety protocol gave me peace of mind. Hand sanitizer stations? Everywhere. Cashless payment service? Easy peasy. They even have Sterilizing equipment! That's commitment.
Food Glorious Food (and Occasional Ordering Mishaps)
Dining, drinking, and snacking: This is where things get… interesting. The restaurants? Plural! Promising. The Asian cuisine in restaurant? Delicious, and worth a shot. They have International cuisine in restaurant too. The Buffet in restaurant? Looked impressive, though admittedly, I may have accidentally over-indulged.
The Perks: Happy hour was fun – a welcome relief after a day navigating the Delhi crush. Poolside bar was a highlight – sipping a cocktail with a view is always a win.
Now, for the confession: I tried to order from the Room service [24-hour] menu one night, and let's just say there was a minor communication breakdown. My grilled cheese arrived looking less "grilled" and more… "slightly warmed-up bread with some cheese awkwardly clinging to it." Lesson learned: stick to the restaurants.
Room Service Ramble: Don’t get me wrong, a 24/7 Room service is amazing but there was a minor communication, maybe a different department? Anyway, my grilled cheese arrived looking… well, unloved. It tasted better then looked, but the aesthetic was not on point.
But listen, the breakfast? The Asian breakfast was genuinely fantastic. Western breakfast? Solid. Breakfast [buffet]? A feast. Coffee/tea in restaurant? Actually pretty decent.
Relaxation & Rejuvenation: Spa Day Dreams (and Maybe a Nap)
This is where Bloom REALLY shines. You want to relax? You came to the right place. The Pool with view? Stunning. Took a lot of photos. The Sauna, Spa, and Steamroom? Perfect for melting away Delhi stress. And the Massage? Oh. My. Goodness. I had a massage that literally made me forget my own name for an hour. Seriously, the masseuse was a magician. Body scrub? Body wrap? Go for it! I wanted to just stay in that spa and never leave.
The Gym / Fitness Center: I felt like a professional.
I took the Fitness center for a spin too and even after I was done with the Gym/fitness I went for the Foot bath. Ahhh.
Things to Do: Beyond the Spa (If You Can Drag Yourself Away)
Besides the obvious spa activities, there's plenty. Seminars and Meetings if you're feeling productive. Meeting/banquet facilities? They have 'em. Terrace for soaking up the sun.
For the Kids: Family Friendly?
Family/child friendly? Yes! Babysitting service available. Kids facilities are there. Kids meal options abound.
Rooms & Amenities: Comfort & Convenience (Mostly)
The rooms themselves are seriously impressive. Air conditioning is a must in Delhi, and it works flawlessly. Air conditioning, Additional toilet. Alarm clock, Bathrobes, 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, 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. They’ve thought of everything.
The bed was ridiculously comfortable. The view was… let’s just say I enjoyed watching the sun set from my window. I spent a lot of time there.
Now for the Imperfections (Because, You Know, Reality)
No hotel is perfect. And Bloom isn't either. The occasional glitch in the room service. Minor wait times at the busiest restaurant. But honestly? These are minor quibbles.
The Quirky Stuff:
I found a tiny, almost imperceptible coffee stain on the desk in my room. It didn't bother me. It felt… real? Like, someone actually lives here, right? Also, the sheer number of staff members is a bit overwhelming. Everyone is super-polite and helpful, but sometimes I just wanted to grab a coffee without being asked five times if I needed anything.
The Verdict: Worth It?
Absolutely. Bloom Golf Course Road is a luxurious escape. It’s not flawless, but it’s damn good. The spa alone is worth the price of admission. And for those seeking a little pampered bliss in Delhi, this is definitely the place to be.

Jaisalmer's Hidden Gem: Registhan Resort – Unforgettable Stay!
Alright, buckle up buttercups! This isn't your sanitized travel brochure. This is…well, me stumbling through Bloom, Golf Course Road, New Delhi and NCR, India. Brace yourselves, it's gonna be a bumpy, potentially delicious, absolutely chaotic ride.
Day 1: Arrival & The Great Delhi Belly…Maybe?
- Morning (Before 10 AM): Landed. The usual madness. Immigration lines longer than my grocery list. Found my driver, a delightful rogue named Raj who immediately tried to sell me a "genuine" cashmere scarf that clearly came from a goat's armpit. Said no. Vigorously. Got to Bloom – a surprisingly chic oasis amidst the Delhi clang and clatter. Feeling optimistic!
- Mid-morning (10 AM - 1 PM): Check-in. Room's nice. Modern. A bit…sterile? Needs a splash of chaos, just like my life. Stared at the minibar, silently negotiating with my inner sugar cravings. Won't fall for their overpriced snacks. Won't. (Cue dramatic eye roll). Lunch at the hotel restaurant. Started with a samosa that was heavenly. Then a butter chicken that was…decent. Okay, it was good, but not the life-altering experience I'd been hoping for. Still, no Delhi Belly. Yet.
- Afternoon (1 PM - 5 PM): Decided to be a proper tourist. Hired a rickshaw. Big mistake. Sweating so much I could water the Taj Mahal. Negotiated hard for a price, got hustled anyway. Saw Qutub Minar. It's… tall. Really tall. Impressive, yes. But also, hot. So, so hot. Bought a ridiculously overpriced mango lassi from a street vendor - totally worth it (even though I'm pretty sure the ice was made from the Ganges).
- Evening (5 PM - Till Late): Back at the hotel. Showered for approximately an hour, washing off layers of Delhi dust and existential dread. Started planning dinner…then got distracted by the TV. Ended up ordering room service – a club sandwich. I know, I know. Basic. But sometimes, a basic sandwich is all a weary traveler needs. Slept like a log, dreaming of air conditioning.
Day 2: Spice Route & The Shopping Debacle
- Morning (9 AM - 12 PM): Breakfast. Actually good this time! Fruit, yogurt, decent coffee. Feeling a tiny bit human. Headed to the spice market. Oh. My. God. The smells! The colours! The sheer volume of cardamom! Overwhelmed me. (And maybe gave me a slight sneeze attack). Bargained for some saffron (probably got ripped off, but who cares, it smells amazing). The chaos is exhilarating! This is why I travel.
- Afternoon (12 PM - 3 PM): Shopping. Oh dear god, the shopping. Hauz Khas Village, supposedly trendy. Found it a bit…pretentious, frankly. Tried on a silk scarf that made me look like a particularly flamboyant peacock. Bought it anyway. (Impulse control? What's that?). Then, disaster struck. Tried to buy some earrings. Got completely, utterly, and irrevocably ripped off. The vendor looked at me -a foreigner- with pure pity after I asked the price of a "bangle"… I'm pretty sure I spent an hour arguing. Felt like a complete idiot. Learned a valuable lesson: research prices before buying (duh).
- Late Afternoon/Evening (3 PM - Till Late): Decided to drown my sorrows in food. Found a tiny, hole-in-the-wall place. Looked dodgy, smelled fantastic. Ordered everything. Butter chicken (again, I know, I'm a creature of habit), some sort of unknown, possibly spicy, maybe-curried veggie dish. Best meal of my entire trip, no contest. The flavors! The heat! The sheer joy of eating something truly authentic! Felt amazing. The Delhi Belly? Still absent!
Day 3: Gurudwara & The Day the Driver Almost Died (Or Maybe He Faked It?)
- Morning (9 AM - 12 PM): Visiting the Gurudwara Bangla Sahib. Absolutely beautiful and humbling experience. The serenity! The community kitchen serving free food! The absolute cleanliness! The opposite of the madness! Free food was delicious too - Dal, Roti, and rice. Felt a pang of…something. Maybe awe? Definitely a feeling that I should learn to be more grateful.
- Afternoon (12 PM - 4 PM): The journey of doom begins. Hired a car to take me to Agra (yes, the Taj Mahal!), and the drive started out like any other. Then, my driver, Raj, decided to demonstrate his "driving skills". Which seem to have been learned via online racing game. The man swerved, beeped, and generally treated the road like a rollercoaster. At one point, he hit a pothole so hard the car nearly leaped off the ground (and I nearly leaped out of my skin). Then, a drama. Raj started clutching his chest, making dramatic breathing noises. Heart attack? Maybe. Or, perhaps, a clever ploy to get out of driving. He kept saying, "My heart is going, my heart is going". I yelled "Get out," and drove the car! He was fine after 10 minutes.
- Late Afternoon/Evening (4 PM - Till Late): Checked into the hotel in Agra. The Taj Mahal tomorrow! The thought of the sheer romanticism is making me excited. Ordered room service again. The Taj is tomorrow, and I'm terrified of disappointing myself.
Day 4: Taj Mahal and the Sweetest Regret
- Early Morning (5 AM - 9 AM): Woke up at dawn, fueled by adrenaline and a questionable coffee. Arrived at the Taj Mahal. The Taj. It's…magical. Utterly, ridiculously, heartbreakingly beautiful. Photos don't do it justice. It's the kind of thing that almost makes you weep. (And I definitely almost did). I walked around it, staring, stunned. Then, I took a photo. Then, another photo. Then I spent a good 30 minutes just standing there, soaking it in.
- Late Morning/Afternoon (9 AM - 2 PM): Wandered around the complex. Fell for the architecture and the story and the beauty. Bought some souvenirs. (Because, yes, I'm a tourist). Felt a sudden and sharp pang of sadness that I’d waited so long to come. The regret hit me hard, a tangible weight in my chest.
- Late Afternoon/Evening (2 PM - Till Late): Back to Delhi. Safe travels back to Bloom. The city, after all, is better than most, and I have to admit that the Delhi Belly didn't get me. I can't believe it.
Day 5: Goodbye, Delhi (For Now)
- Morning (Until Departure): Breakfast. Packing. Regretting not buying more spices. Promising myself to return. Delhi, you crazy, chaotic, delicious place. You tested me, you thrilled me, you nearly gave me a heart attack (thanks, Raj!). I'll be back. (Probably).
- Departure: On the plane. Already missing the smells, the sounds, and the utter madness of it all. Back to the real world. Back to reality. Back to…planning my next trip! This is what it's all about.
The Verdict: Bloom – Good. Delhi – Brilliant and a pain. Raj – maybe unreliable, but now an acquaintance. Food – mostly incredible. Emotional state - thoroughly wrung out, but utterly and completely delighted. 8/10. Would (and will) do again. If I can survive it.

Bloom Golf Course Road: Delhi NCR’s Most Luxurious Escape? (Let's Get Real!)
So, Bloom Golf Course Road... Is it REALLY all that? Like, worth the hype?
Okay, deep breath. The hype? It's there. You’ve got the sprawling green landscapes, the gleaming glass buildings, the endless rows of luxury cars. But is it *all* it's cracked up to be? Truthfully, it's a mixed bag. Think of it like a really expensive, perfectly Instagrammed dessert. Looks incredible, but you might secretly wish for a simple, messy brownie instead.
My first time there? Pure awe. I felt like I'd stumbled onto a movie set, or maybe a parallel universe where everyone has unlimited disposable income and a penchant for designer handbags. The sheer *scale* of it all is impressive. But after a while… it can feel a little… sterile. A little *too* perfect. You know what I mean?
What kind of "luxury" are we talking about on Bloom Golf Course Road? Like, specific examples?
Oh, honey, it's a whole lifestyle. We’re talking about things like:
- Houses: Palatial villas with manicured gardens, infinity pools, and probably a dedicated room for storing shoes. One time I saw a house with a *golf simulator*. I'm still trying to process that.
- Shopping: High-end boutiques, designer labels, and stores where the price tags probably require a separate mortgage application. I once wandered into a store and accidentally touched a scarf. My heart rate tripled.
- Dining: Michelin-starred restaurants, celebrity chef appearances, and places where the service is so impeccable, it’s almost unnerving. I had a meal there once and the waiter seemed to *anticipate* my need for more water before I even thought about it. Creepy.
- Amenities: Private clubs, spas that could bankrupt a small country, and gyms that probably have personal trainers with six-pack abs. And don't even get me started on the car dealerships. It’s like a museum for the ultra-rich.
But here’s the thing: sometimes, it’s the little things that surprise you. Like the fact that the *valet parking* guy at a very expensive restaurant was actually incredibly friendly and helpful. That’s a detail that sticks with you. And the stark difference to some other locations in the NCR is something that can't be ignored.
What’s the crowd like? Are they… snooty?
Okay, this is where it gets interesting. Yes, a good portion of the crowd is, let's say, *sophisticated*. You see a lot of perfectly coiffed hair, designer sunglasses, and people who probably know the name of their tailor's favorite cat. You know, the usual suspects.
But the truth is, it’s not *uniformly* snooty. I've met some incredibly down-to-earth people there too. Some are genuinely warm and welcoming, which throws you off. It’s like, "Wait… you don’t judge me for my slightly scuffed shoes?"
The vibe really depends on *where* you are on Golf Course Road. Some places are definitely more exclusive than others. The private clubs can feel intimidating, but a good restaurant can have a surprisingly mixed, and generally friendly, clientele. Still, I always feel like I need to brush up on my table manners before I go. And maybe invest in a decent handbag… just in case.
Is it all just about money and showing off? Or is there something more to Bloom Golf Course Road?
Oof. That’s the big question, isn’t it? And the answer is complex. Yes, a significant portion is about flaunting wealth. The cars alone are a testament to that. There's definitely a "keeping up with the Joneses" mentality at play.
But… and it’s a big but… I've also seen glimpses of something more. I’ve witnessed genuine community spirit in some of the residential complexes. There are charity events, and I've heard stories of people contributing to causes. Now, whether that’s driven by genuine altruism or a PR exercise, I’m not always sure. But it's *there*.
Ultimately, it depends on what you’re looking for. If you're looking for a place to escape the everyday grind and experience a level of luxury you’ve only dreamed of (and don't mind the price tag), then Bloom Golf Course Road is worth a visit. But don’t go expecting a utopia. It's just… another place, with its own set of complexities and, yes, sometimes, a little bit of heart.
Alright, let's talk about the *food*. What are the dining experiences like on Bloom Golf Course Road?
The food scene is a major player here. Forget your neighborhood dhaba; we're talking culinary artistry. From innovative fusion cuisine to the classics, the options are extensive.
My Most Memorable Meal Disaster: Okay, so picture this: I'm at this fancy Italian restaurant, trying to impress someone (who shall remain nameless), and the waiter puts down a plate of risotto. It looks perfect. Every grain of rice is perfectly shaped. And then... I take a bite. And the risotto is *under-salted*. Under-salted! I was mortified. I mean, I know it's first-world problems, but for that price point? I felt like I was in a comedy sketch. The look on the waiter's face was priceless, bless his heart. He probably wanted to sink into the floor.
Beyond that personal culinary catastrophe: The food ranges from excellent to... well, occasionally trying too hard. The presentation is often exquisite, the ingredients are top-notch. But sometimes, they can get a little *too* creative and lose the core essence of the dish. However, I must admit, there are places that provide culinary experiences of the highest order. I'm already starting to drool just thinking about it.
Is it family-friendly? Are there things to do for kids?
Yes and no. Some of the complexes have amazing amenities specifically for families: playgrounds, kids' clubs, swimming pools, the works. So, if you're *living* there, it seems pretty great for kids. A lot of the villas seem to have dedicated kids' play areas, and a lot of people have tutors, nannies, whatever it might take to get kids through the day.
But if you're just visiting, the options are a bit more limited. Most of the high-end restaurants aren't really designed for toddlers. There may be some spots with family-friendly brunch options, and a few of the malls have play areas, but you may have a hard time finding a 'quick' trip for kids on the road. Also, good luck keeping your kids from touching everything at the designer boutiques. Or better yet, good luck explaining *why* they can't touch everything.Snooze And Stay
