Tatvamasi Homestay

“Some places stay in your heart, not because of where they are, but because of how they make you feel.” Such is the essence of Tatvamasi Homestay—a rare gem tucked away in the heart of South Delhi, where comfort meets soul, and every corner whispers you belong here. The name Tatvamasi, a profound Sanskrit phrase meaning “Thou Art That”, is more than just a title—it’s a philosophy. One that comes alive the moment you step through the doors. This isn’t merely a homestay; it is a home that stays with you long after you’ve left. Elegant, serene, and thoughtfully appointed, Tatvamasi is a sanctuary from the bustle of Delhi life. Yet what truly elevates the experience is Pankaj Bajaj, the host—gracious, intuitive, and endlessly considerate. With the warmth of a long-lost friend and the quiet confidence of someone who has welcomed the world, Pankaj has hosted travellers from 96 countries, each time offering a bespoke experience that reflects both his hospitality and humanity. Tatvamasi offers something far more valuable than amenities—it offers a deep sense of care, privacy, and peace. Every detail reflects thoughtful intention, creating a space where your comfort is anticipated and your individuality deeply respected. Whether you’re a solo traveller seeking quiet, a global citizen looking for authentic connection, or simply someone in search of a restful, meaningful place to stay—Tatvamasi welcomes you not just as a guest, but as part of something enduring. Thank you, Pankaj, for creating a space where hearts feel at home. Tatvamasi is not just a name—it’s a feeling.

This was an amazing homestay and would recommend to any travellers visiting Dehli. It it very conveniently located near the lotus temple and other attractions / metro stations. The host, Pankaj went above and beyond to make us feel welcome - on the first day he gave us loads of recommendations including places to visit and eat in Dehli - as newcomers, this was invaluable! . The rooms are really comfortable with good facilities. There are plenty of cafes near by within walking distance / short drive.

Pankaj is the perfect host. I was new to India. He helped me navigate, and understand it. He sent me what to visit, where to eat, and what app to download. He woke up at 6 am on my departure day to ensure I did not miss my bus. Pankaj even drove me every morning to the Metro station, even to the Lotus temple on my first day, as I had overslept and was a bit overwhelmed by Delhi. The room was clean, and comfortable with everything you want and need. Slept like a baby too. Best quality for the price. In short, book with Pankaj and you will have a great stay in Delhi.

Simply awesome. Pankaj stayed up for my 11:30pm arrival and still had time to get me connected to wifi and discuss all my itinerary plans for the next 2 days. My itinerary had pen all over it with recommendations etc. He lent me a Metro card, walked me to the nearby market with numerous shops and restaurants and even arranged a chai making masterclass with one of his staff. I cannot speak highly enough of his hospitality which is consistent with every other review I've read about this homestay. Based in South Delhi, it is a quiet neighbourhood with numerous parks and easy to get around with Uber or the Metro. Will gladly recommend to anyone travelling to Delhi to ensure your first time is amazing. True Indian hospitality at its finest!

We stayed two nights in Tatvamasi Homestay. It was a great start for our travel through India. Pankaj was very helpful, friendly und trustful. He showed us around and explained us everything. The rooms are simple, but very big and clean with everything you need (fridge, balcony). The area around the hotel is very interesting, not that crowded with a lot of restaurants. You can get easily in the city with metro or uber. We can highly recommend the Tatvamasi Homestay. Pankaj made us feel welcome.

Where do I start.... An absolute massive thankyou to Pankaj and team from Tatvamasi Homestay for their terrific accommodation and experience during my first time experience in India. Pankaj was such a welcoming host who put so much time and effort into making his guests feel right at home; from the buttomless cups of tea and the stories he willingly shared with us it was such a positive and enjoyable experience. Whats Nearby:? Tatvamasi Homestay is situated perfectly just outside of M Block market which supplies guest with gorgeous bakeries (defense bakery & Nik Bakers) which serves incredible pastries and cakes and exceptional coffee's and is also home to quaint bars ( The Beer Café & Depot48) that supplied a variety of beers and wine with live music entertainments. If bars and cafes are not your cup of tea, M Block is also home to some wonderful Asian, European and American restaurants to cater for all. M block also features several chemists for your convenience and fitness centres to focus and maintain health and fitness.

Smoking: Although premises do not allow for smoking inside there is an upstairs balcony for those needing a puff or a breathe of fresh air. Whats Nearby: Nearby you will have access to Chittaranjan Park Kali Mandir Society Hindu Temple which has rituals during the evenings that are really empowering to watch and be apart of. You will be met with this incredible ring of the bells and ritual demonstrations as they commense the ceremony which slices through the air. I highly recommend taking your time to experience it. Tatvamasi is also nearby some amazing tourist attractions (only a couple minutes by Uber) such as Tughlakabad Fort Delhi, Qutub Minar and Lotus Temple. I highly recommend taking some time out to experience these lovely places too. If all this fails Pankaj has a wealth of knowledge on hidden gems and must see attractions too, I highly recommend to pick his brains for ideas. Rooms: Rooms provided a perfect double bed with plenty of rooms for bags and belongings. Private bathroom with hair-dryer, vanity sink and shower with an adjustable arm. A relatively large fridge is also supplied to keep your water cool or to store snacks. The room also features a small TV with basic channels for your convenience. Nearby activities: Mehrauli Archeological Park Qutub Minar Tughlakabad Fort Lotus Temple Akshardham (They hold an exceptional lights and story telling experience during the evenings) Highly recommend. Walkability: M block is a simple stroll away from the accommodation which cut's through some small lane ways and colourful parks. If walking is not your strong suits I highly suggest a tuk tuk or car hire through Uber. Uber is safer and keep prices in check and the
