lounging around at the Radisson sounds interesting. Mght just take a rik there, have a meal, haunt the lobby or somewhere else i an go unnoticed for an hour or 2, then head for IGA

that make sense?

If you feel like a twenty minute auto ride from Radisson to kill time, Besant Lok complex (Vasant Vihar) is one option... a multiplex, McDonalds, Nirula's, some coffee shops, a few pubs/resterunts, books and miscellaneous shopping, or an expensive haircut... but it won't be as relaxed as a drink at the Radisson.

And another hotel.. Vasant Continental, is next door.

If the Radisson, you could even walk down (not too far, I think, or a short auto ride) to the huge Shiva statue in a small park. Depends on time of day, I think.. it must close in the evening sometime.

It depends what budget what you are in. If you are looking for a budgeted hotel to relax down for 05hrs, I suggest Hotel Shanti Palace on National Highway -08. The same road leads to the International Airport. The hotel has good rooms, equipped with a bar. Room Rent for a short stay would cost you close to INR 1000/-. Else what others have suggested as well, roam around at the Radisson. Radisson is 05kms from the Int Airport. Have some spare time in hand as there is lot of traffic congestion round the clock due to a construction activity(flyover) going on in the area.

Cheers.

another option, depending on time of day.. Delhi Haat is a 40 minute or so auto ride from the airport.

Better than Basant Lok, IMHO, but in the daytime.

International Inn

Must have changed emails since i posted those details. Perhaps ring or fax them instead. Found a few sites through Google offering online booking for it.

Delhi / hotel not far from the domestic airport

I am flying from abroad to Delhi and arriving around midnight to catch a domestic flight the day after at 11 am. Could anyone recommend a ok hotel close/not too far from the domestic flights airport?

What do you mean by "the day after at 11am"? Is that 11 hours after your midnight arrival, or the day after?

New Delhi is not that far from the airports. You could consider getting a hotel there as well.
