    If there were an option, I would give a 0/5 rating. Rude people at the reception. They don't talk respectfully. I was charged $150 per night, which is more than a 5-star hotel next door. The room was not in living conditions. You can't dare to use their restrooms if you haven't had a tetanus shot in the last month. If it weren't late, I would have run away right that moment. I checked out at 5 am. This place needs to shut down. Save yourself, and don't renew your membership or book here.

    India International Centre is an iconic institution in Delhi. Most services are open only for members and outsiders are restricted to public events, conferences and exhibitions. Parking is a big issue if you are coming to the IIC

    A brilliant space which has not been refreshed , upgraded and redeveloped to exploit its full potential as a center for the arts and cultural excellence. Many events and shows but few if any showcasing international culture

    It is one of the most prestigious institutes in the capital city of Delhi. It was developed as an art and culture centre. Many celebrities had been associated with it in the past and present times as well. A good number of conference halls as well as art galleries attract people from all walks of life. Sprawling lawns and seasonal flowers add to the beauty of this place. Nice place to spend time with high quality gentry.

    Location is good; a lot of restrictions on what can be done and what can't be done inside their banquets. A typical place for Senior beaurocrate's to come and have meetings or just sip coffee.. Food is just ordinary..Nothing to die for.

  • 5/5 Ashish Mohan K. 1 year ago on Google
    Classy oasis of intellectual and academic discourse, a calm, soothing think tank that is as old as I am! Born in 1960. A place one calls home away from home. Understated elegance, quiet dignity and overall Indian aesthetics. The IIC main offers among the best library in town and best bakery too. Food for thought and stomach. Only for members please , so don't read this and rush to the place ☺️

    India International Centre is one of the most important social gatherings place in the capital of India. You find a set of auditoriums and beautiful places around it including international offices here. It is in the heart ❤️ of New Delhi near India Habitat Centre and other such important office complex. Best place to have social gatherings of all who's who of Delhi social circle.

    I have attended multiple events here. It is an impressive building and the different halls and lawns offer a good space for hosting gatherings and events. There is ample space for seating guests vs serving food. The food however is average even though the variety is impressive. Taste is not as good. Parking is also a challenge as there is no parking available at the venue. You would either need to park far away and walk or have a driver.

    India International Centre (IIC) is the crown jewel of cultural experiences! This spot is like a genie's treasure trove, serving up a smorgasbord of exhibitions and events that keep me hooked. The vibes here are off the charts – like a vibrant festival that never ends. And let's talk architecture – it's like the coolest wizard's lair you've ever seen. If cultural awesomeness had a headquarters, IIC would be it! I wish I could stay here forever.

    India International Centre is an excellent place to visit and watch cultural events. Although dinning and booking of rooms are reserved for members only but you can enjoy entry fee events. Guest of members are allowed here. You can enjoy one the world's largest libraries here. An excellent place, general public might be aware of events for enhancing culture and events.

    A heaven for those who loves culture. Offers great opportunities to meet great international acclaimed artists. Once you enter the place, you will see goodness everywhere, which can't be described by words. Stuffs are extremely humble and cooperative. For art lovers, this place is a must visit.

    It's a wonderful venue for holding private functions. It's equipped with all necessary facilities like a well kept lawn, dining facilities, washroom and trained staff. The location is excellent, close to Lodhi road. The place can be accessed very easily from all corners of Delhi.

    They offer good service. Good hygiene practices. Space ambience is very good. Food quality in preparation is good, but the taste is little above average. Pricing little more than before, but still less than most other such places.

    Located in the heart of New Delhi. Good for large conferences as well. They have multiple large auditoriums as well as halls for seminars and workshops. If you get free time in between you can also go to Khan Market which is Delhi's upscale retail location that has moved up one position to become the world's 20th most expensive retail location, according to global property consultant Cushman & Wakefield.

    Excellent place for Seminars, excellent food ; but parking is pain point, as only members are allowed.

  • 4/5 Ankur M. 7 months ago on Google • 15 reviews
    This place has a legacy of hosting some amazing events and shows with eminent celebrities from the country and globally. However, the hospitality is very average. A guest cannot even get a cup of coffee if they are not a member here. A three-story cafeteria doesn't have space for guests. As the times and the world change, they have to upgrade their age-old customs.

  • 5/5 AJK J. 4 months ago on Google
    A good place to host conferences, workshops, etc. Spacious well maintained lawns and a building of architectural beauty. Hosts a good library too!!!!. It's a wonder that, in this age of rampant space utilization, an institution has a dedicated area for library. Keep it up. Thanks for inspiring.

    Visited for an informal official dinner with spouses. It was my first visit and I was expecting decent meals. But was in for a rude shock. The drinks, snacks, main course and ice cream - can you believe it - all was a big thumbs down 👎🏻

  • 5/5 Rupayan C. 2 months ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    Everything The Best at our popularly called IIC. Great location at Lodhi Road, just adjacent to Lodi Garden...where we can enjoy our walks. The homely attitude and courtesy of the staff not only increases our appetite, but beyond that. Well maintained splush greenery and the Lawns are my favorites. Spick and span corridors in the Hostel Block and throughout the iconic premises radiate the Brilliance epitomized by the presence of Who's who in the highest echelons of our society. The Dining Hall and The Lotus Lounge, eagerly wait to serve the Continental, Chinese and our Indian delicacies at extremely pocket friendly prices. While that's not all, the Bakery items prepared in-house would beckon you to savour them as well. IIC is a class of its own and stand apart in its own flavor articulated by the Brilliance and Class of its Members.

    Best place for conducting seminars and conferences. The only problem is parking. There's limited parking space that too outside the IIC.

  • 5/5 Moon L. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Atul D. 1 year ago on Google
    An exquisite social club popular amount literary and art lovers. The layout ambience and food are out of the world. A large capacity auditorium and plenty of guest rooms are also included. Membership was recently opened, and its certainly worth it

  • 4/5 Ashwani Kumar M. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a nice cultural center but with VIP movements the place becomes messy. Place is nice and good good as long as there is no VIP visit or movement otherwise it's a harassment to normal public by security guards as they poke into everyone business and poke everywhere.

  • 4/5 Abhishek K. 1 year ago on Google
    The location is perfect. But parking inside the premises is only for members, others need to park outside along the road. Stage is nice, hall is spacious, sound system and lighting is fine. Toilets are average.

  • 4/5 Shilpi B. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is nice in terms of beauty. The auditorium is quite big and the gardens are also very huge and green. Just had a dance competition there on 26/6/2022 and it was a lovely experience.

  • 5/5 Anand M. 1 year ago on Google
    Every thing in this place like staff, ambience and super rich library with rare papers and books both online and offline. A good place to hang around with like mined friends for long discussions on national/international issues. You can find a different gentry or intellectual class with sense of pride in their field of expertise. With great kitchen and Bar, you can enjoy with yummy food options and at very reasonable price.

  • 5/5 Dinesh G. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food in restaurants at very cheap prices. Love it. You are in Delhi then eat here. Don't go to 5 stars. Even Taj Mahal Hotel, Mansingh Road food is inferior to thus place.
