Luxury Gurgaon Escape: Citadines Paras Square Awaits!

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the whirlwind that is Luxury Gurgaon Escape: Citadines Paras Square Awaits!. This isn't your sterile, perfectly polished hotel review. Consider this a brutally honest, slightly unhinged, and hopefully, mostly helpful account of my stay. Prepare for some rambles, some raves, and maybe a few eye-rolls. Let's get messy!

First Impressions & The "Oh, Hello" Moment (Accessibility & Location Rant)

Okay, so getting to this place… Gurgaon traffic, am I right? Absolute madness. But once you're there, Citadines Paras Square is actually pretty well-placed. Close to everything, but offering a (mostly) peaceful escape. Now, accessibility… this is where things get slightly complicated. They definitely claim to be wheelchair accessible. They have an elevator. But navigating Indian hotel accessibility can sometimes be a bumpy ride. I didn't personally need it this time, but I poked around a bit. Ramped entrances? Check. Wide doorways? Mostly. But small details, like the proximity of tables and maneuvering space near service areas felt like an afterthought. Definitely call ahead and confirm your specific needs.

The Room: My Fortress of Solitude (and Maybe a Few Minor Annoyances)

My room was… well, it was mine. It was clean. It had a seriously comfy bed, a blackout curtain that actually worked (major win for me, sleep is sacred!), and a pretty good view. (High floor recommendation – take it!) The Air conditioning? Glorious. Necessary for survival in Gurgaon. Bonus points for the Free Wi-Fi, available in all rooms. (Although the Internet access – LAN option felt a bit dated). The Mini bar? Stocked, but overpriced. I'm looking at you, bottle of water.

Things I loved: The Complimentary tea and coffee, the Coffee/tea maker, and the Refrigerator. Because who doesn’t want a midnight snack? They had Ironing facilities, which I, honestly, didn't use, but I appreciated the thought. The Free bottled water was a LIFESAVER. Extra points for the Seating area; a great space to chill out with a book. The Bathroom phone (really!), the Hair dryer, Bathrobes and Slippers – a nice touch of luxurious.

Things I didn't love: The Sofa, was a bit stiff. The Mirror was in an odd spot (vanity issues). The Extra long bed felt, well, extra long, and the TV remote was a battlefield (the On-demand movies were nice, when they worked).

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking… Oh My! (And My Food Obsessions)

Okay, this is where things get interesting. The Restaurants are a highlight. They offered Asian cuisine, International cuisine, even a Vegetarian restaurant. A Breakfast [buffet] was included, good, standard hotel fare. But the real star? The A la carte in restaurant and the Happy hour at the Bar. I absolutely needed both, and they were amazing.

I tried the Asian cuisine in restaurant twice and was really impressed. The Desserts in restaurant were heavenly. The Poolside bar was great, but the Pool with view was even better. They had Salad in restaurant, and the Coffee shop was ideal for escaping the afternoon heat.

A quick confession: I spent way too much time at the Snack bar. (Don't judge me!). They offer Bottle of water (duh!), and the option for Breakfast takeaway service.

Relaxation Central: The Spa and Fitness Frenzy

The Spa was a must-do. I got a Massage that still makes me sigh. They offer a Sauna, Steamroom, Spa/sauna, Body scrub, Body wrap, and a Foot bath. I didn't try everything, but the spa itself was beautiful, and the staff was incredibly attentive. The Swimming pool [outdoor] was a welcome escape, even if it got a bit crowded at times.

The Fitness center was… well, it was a gym. Standard stuff. They had a Gym/fitness, and equipment for a decent workout. I can't pretend to be a fitness fanatic, but hey it was there.

Cleanliness, Safety, and the Joy of Feeling Relatively Safe in a Crazy World

This is crucial. Citadines seemed to take hygiene seriously. They had Hand sanitizer EVERYWHERE. They used Anti-viral cleaning products and offered a Room sanitization opt-out available, which is a thoughtful touch. I saw the Daily disinfection in common areas, and the staff were wearing masks.

Doctor/nurse on call is a nice touch, providing a safety net! First aid kit, Hot water linen and laundry washing, Sanitized kitchen and tableware items all contributes to a feeling of security. I could also pay via cashless payment service.

Services and Conveniences: The Extras That Make a Stay (Mostly) Seamless

The Concierge service was super helpful, even with the simplest requests. Air conditioning in public area, the Elevator, and the Doorman made life easier. I appreciated the convenience of the Cash withdrawal and the Currency exchange. The Daily housekeeping was efficient and discreet.

The Meeting/banquet facilities, Meetings, and Seminars are all available if you're there for business. They also offer Laundry service, Dry cleaning, and Ironing service. The Car park [free of charge] was a definite plus (Gurgaon parking is a nightmare!).

For the Kids (Because, Let's Be Real, They're Important)

They are Family/child friendly, which is great news. The Babysitting service could be useful for parents.

Getting Around (A Gurgaon Adventure)

They offer Airport transfer which, again, is a lifesaver. There’s Taxi service, and Valet parking.

The Verdict: Should You Book? (My Honest Opinion)

Citadines Paras Square is a solid choice for a Gurgaon getaway. It's a good value for the price. It has its quirks and imperfections, but the good outweighs the bad. It's clean, comfortable, well-located, and has some truly lovely amenities.

However, if you have specific accessibility needs, contact them before you book to confirm everything meets your requirements.

Overall? Happy. Relaxed. Slightly overfed. And ready for another adventure!

Citadines Paras Square Gurugram New Delhi and NCR India

Okay, buckle up Buttercup, because this isn't your average itinerary. This is a CITADINES PARAS SQUARE GURUGRAM (New Delhi NCR, India) adventure, curated by yours truly, a human who spills coffee, gets lost in translation, and definitely judges a hotel based on its breakfast offering. Let's dive in.

Day 1: Arrival and the Great Curry Quest

  • Morning (or what passes for morning after a transcontinental flight): Landed at Indira Gandhi International, and let me tell you, that airport is a maze. Found a pre-paid taxi (thank god for those, otherwise I’d be haggling like a pro…or more likely, getting ripped off!), and after a surprisingly swift (and slightly terrifying) highway journey, we're at the Citadines Paras Square. First impressions? Pretty swish. Clean lines, a lobby that screams "business traveler," and…am I imagining it, or is there a faint smell of freshly brewed coffee? Excellent start.

  • Late Morning/Early Afternoon: Settling In (and the Tiny Kitchen Dilemma). Checked in, got the keys, and…drumroll please…the apartment! Alright, it's a studio, but super comfy, and they actually have a tiny kitchen. My first thought? "Can I actually cook here?" My second thought? "Nah, let's find some legit Indian food instead." The idea of cooking seemed utterly exhausting after that flight, I swear!

  • Afternoon: The Curry Crusade Begins. The hotel staff helped me find a reputable place nearby. I'm talking a full-on restaurant crawl. The first curry was a creamy butter chicken that almost made me weep with joy. BUT- I was still looking…I knew there was more to find… It was the first truly authentic experience, and it was incredible. The spices! The textures! The sheer, unadulterated deliciousness!

  • Evening: Exhausted Bliss (and the Wifi Woes). Back at the hotel, utterly stuffed. The wifi, by the way, is a bit… temperamental. Kept having to reset it, which, given my jet lag fog, felt like rocket science. But hey, I managed to upload some photos and catch up with the folks back home. Then, a long hot shower. Total bliss. Ended the day sprawled on the bed, watching (dubbed!) Bollywood films that made absolutely no sense.

Day 2: Culture Shock…and Samosas!

  • Morning: Breakfast Disappointment and a Change of Plans. Okay, the breakfast buffet at Citadines… it was fine. But it lacked soul. Needed something more. Went wandering down the road and found a tiny street food stall. Samosas! And not just any samosas – crispy, golden-brown perfection. So much better than the hotel.

  • Late Morning/Early Afternoon: Exploring Gurugram (and Getting Mildly Overwhelmed). Decided to venture out. The traffic is… an event. Driving is a contact sport, I kid you not. The horns! The close calls! It's an assault on the senses, but in a weird, exhilarating way. Went to a local market - which should be a total blast, if you can keep on your feet and not get trampled!

  • Afternoon: The Art of Bargaining (and a Near-Meltdown). Found an amazing shop selling textiles and handicrafts. The colours! The patterns! But the price tags… Yikes. Bargaining is an art form, and I am clearly a novice. Made a few bad offers. Almost gave up and started crying. Finally, got a beautiful scarf down to a reasonable price, but I could feel the vendor's side-eye.

  • Evening: "Local" Dinner and Unexpected Friendships. Back to the hotel, slightly frazzled, but also buzzing. Found a restaurant nearby recommended by a local shopkeeper. It was not touristy. It was a real experience. The food was incredible, and for the first time, I felt like I was connecting. I chatted with the waiters, who, despite my terrible Hindi, were incredibly warm and welcoming. The whole evening was the most fantastic!

Day 3: Day Trip to Delhi? (And the Great Laundry Fiasco)

  • Morning: The Laundry Disaster. Thought I'd be smart and use the hotel's laundry service. Nope. It was a disaster. Came back, and the clothes were all still wet and they seemed far, far worse than they were!

  • Late Morning/Early Afternoon: The Delhi Dilemma. Delhi! Oh my god, Delhi. The idea of tackling it after my laundry fiasco… I’m not sure. I’m currently wrestling with the idea of a day trip to Delhi. The traffic, the crowds…it's a commitment. But the culture, the history! It’s pulling me in, but I’m also considering staying in Gurugram, and maybe go to a museum.

  • Afternoon: Went to a museum-- what a relief. It was peaceful, and calm. Really lovely art.

  • Evening: Had a very nice dinner, and went home-- it's a good time to reflect on all the experiences!

Day 4: Farewell Food Frenzy and the Return Home:

  • Morning: Last-Minute Samosas and Regrets. One last wander for samosas! Realized there were other places I had to see, other foods to eat. So, yeah. Had to settle with the samosas.

  • Late Morning/Early Afternoon: Packing (and the Emotional Toll). Ugh. Packing. Always a total mess. Somehow crammed everything back into my suitcase. Started to feel strangely sad. This short trip had been incredible. From the kindness of strangers to the sheer exoticness of the place.

  • Afternoon: Leaving. Taxi to the airport. One last look at Citadines. This trip was messy, and imperfect, but real. It was amazing.

Citadines Paras Square Gurugram New Delhi and NCR India

Citadines Paras Square Gurugram New Delhi and NCR IndiaOkay, buckle up, buttercups! We're diving headfirst into the questionable wonderland that is the *Luxury Gurgaon Escape: Citadines Paras Square Awaits!* – or at least, trying to, while simultaneously attempting to decipher what exactly “luxury” even *means* in Gurgaon. Let's see if we can make sense of this, shall we? Here goes... (Brace yourselves, this is gonna be a ride).

So, what *is* this "Luxury Gurgaon Escape" anyway – and is it actually *luxury*? My skepticism is already overflowing.

Okay, alright, deep breaths. From what I *gather* – and let’s be real, “gather” can be a generous term in the context of marketing – it's a stay at the Citadines Paras Square, pitched as a “luxurious” experience in Gurgaon. Look, Gurgaon… it’s Gurgaon. It’s a city of extremes, right? Five-star hotels next to… well, things best left unmentioned. "Luxury" could mean anything from a slightly less dilapidated elevator to a *genuine* spa experience. My personal experience with "luxury" in that part of the world is… mixed. I once stayed in a "luxury" hotel that featured a jacuzzi that, let's just say, smelled suspiciously of chlorine mixed with something *else*. So, yeah… take the “luxury” claim with a *massive* grain of salt. But hey, let’s see what we're dealing with, right? Perhaps, *perhaps*, they've upped their game. Don't get your hopes *too* high though, okay? I'm trying to be cautiously optimistic here.

Citadines Paras Square. Is this place *actually* nice? Give it to me straight – no sugarcoating.

Okay, okay, no sugarcoating. Citadines… it’s… *fine*. I think “perfectly adequate” might be the best descriptor. It's a serviced apartment-style hotel, so you're not exactly getting the full-blown, over-the-top, gold-plated-everything experience. The rooms are generally clean and functional, the staff are usually helpful (they *try* hard, bless 'em), and you're likely to have a decent-sized apartment with a kitchen, which is a *huge* plus if you're staying for more than a couple of days. I've heard mixed reviews about the food. I actually once got food poisoning at a "luxury" hotel in Delhi. So, I’m trying to be more careful. The pool... well, it's a pool. Whether it's a *good* pool is another question entirely. It’s… serviceable. Look, don't expect the Four Seasons. But if you're looking for a comfortable base to explore Gurgaon (and probably dodge some of the traffic), it's… okay. Just don’t go expecting *jaw-dropping* beauty and perfection. You might be *slightly* disappointed if you do. It's like… a well-dressed, but slightly tired, aunt. You love her, sort of, but you know she could use a good night's sleep and a makeover.

What's the food situation like? Breakfast? Restaurants? (Because let’s face it, bad food can ruin a whole trip).

Oh, the *food*. This is where it gets... tricky. Breakfast at Citadines is generally included, and it's usually a buffet situation. Expect a fairly standard spread: eggs (cooked in various exciting ways... or not), some Indian breakfast staples (parathas, idli-sambar – yay!), and some generic continental options. I've found the quality to be… variable. Sometimes it’s surprisingly good. Other times… well, let's just say I spent a good portion of one morning strategically avoiding certain items. The restaurants *around* Citadines… that's where it gets interesting. Gurgaon has a *ton* of options, from fancy fine dining to street food adventures. You're likely to have a wider variety *nearby* than you might find *within* the hotel itself. So, do your research! I swear, one of the best meals I’ve had in Gurgaon was at a tiny little *dhabha* (roadside restaurant) I stumbled upon. Don't be afraid to explore, people! Just… maybe check hygiene standards first, okay? *Always* be aware of the tummy troubles lurking around the corner.

Okay, let's talk about the rooms. What can I *actually* expect? Space? Cleanliness? That dreaded "view"?

Right, the rooms. This is where I think Citadines often shines. Given it's a serviced apartment type of place, you've *usually* got decent space. You're not cramped in a tiny, pokey hotel room. The size is a definite plus. Cleanliness? Generally, yes. They try. It's not always *spotless*, but it's usually acceptable. I’ve seen worse (a lot worse, frankly). The kitchen facilities are a huge bonus. Being able to make your own coffee in the morning instead of relying on lukewarm hotel brew is a *game-changer*. The “view”… ah, the view. Expect a cityscape. Which could mean anything, really. Potentially a busy road, a construction site, or another building. Don’t expect the majestic Himalayan peaks from your window. It's Gurgaon, after all. I had one room that, I swear, looked out onto the air conditioning units of the building next door. Not the most inspiring vista, let me tell you. But hey, it was functional. And let's get real: how much time are you *really* going to spend staring out the window? (Unless your internet goes down, which is also a distinct possibility.)

What's the deal with the location? Is it convenient? Am I going to be stuck in traffic hell?

Location, location, location… ugh, Gurgaon traffic. Citadines is *generally* in a fairly convenient area. It's close to Paras Square, which has shops, restaurants, and that vital necessity of any Gurgaon experience: a mall. You've got the usual mix of options nearby. Now, the *traffic*. This is the elephant in the room. Gurgaon traffic is legendary. It can be a beast. It can swallow your time. It can make you question your life choices. Yes, you're likely to encounter traffic. Prepare yourself. Plan accordingly. Factor in *extra* time for everything. And, for the love of all that is holy, download a good navigation app. It's your best friend. I’ve spent hours stuck in traffic trying to get… well, *anywhere*. So, yes, the location is *generally* convenient, but be prepared to battle the beast. It's part of the Gurgaon experience, sadly. It's basically a rite of passage.

Is it *worth* the money? What's the actual value proposition here? Should I just stay somewhere else?

Right, the million-dollar question (or however much Citadines costs per night). Is it *worth* it? That depends. It really, *really* depends. If you're looking for a budget option, probably not. There are cheaper places to stay in Gurgaon. If you're after a full-blown, opulent, five-star experience, thenFindelicious Hotels
