LIFE TREE BED & BREAKFAST

About!

Lifetree has been our family home for over three decades.

Located in a lively residential neighbourhood, just two minutes walk from one of Delhi's best known local markets (Central market, Lajpat Nagar) and a 5 minutes rickshaw ride to the closest Metro station (Lajpat Nagar), we offer four large, airy rooms.

When our son moved out to follow his dream of starting his own B&B (Tree of Life), we had lots of space available. We got the building fully renovated to meet modern standards and started the venture in October 2010.

With a lifetime spent serving foreign visitors, Mr. Ramesh Manocha is the visionary founder of Metropole Tourist Service (www.metrovista.co.in), one of Delhi's oldest and most respected car rental agencies, which finds pride of place in prestigious travel guidebooks like the Lonely Planet, Le Guide du Routard, Footprint, Love Delhi and many more.

Mrs. Kanta Bazaz-Manocha is the 'mother of the house' a warm, kindly grandmother, who takes keen interest in the day to day running of the B&B. Sensitive to the needs of the modern day travelers, she ensures a calm and un-intruding atmosphere, where assistance, whenever needed, is just seconds away.

We eagerly wait for a opportunity to share with you the joy of staying at 'Lifetree'
