Hotel Appolo Siliguri

Our place, Hotel Appolo Siliguri, is actually located at D-51 Princess Park on Copour Nicus Marg in Delhi. Even though the name might make you think of West Bengal, we are right here in the capital. The building at Princess Park is where we do all our daily work. It’s a bit of an older structure, but it serves us well enough. We spend the day managing the rooms and making sure the front desk is always attended. It’s not a very big operation, just a few of us making sure things run as they should. The area around Copour Nicus Marg is quite central, so there’s always something happening outside. We get all kinds of people coming through the doors, mostly travelers looking for a place to rest for a night or two. Our office area is tucked away in a corner with a few old chairs and a desk that’s seen a lot of use. We keep our keys on a big wooden board and use a physical guest book for most things. It’s a very hands-on job. Sometimes the air conditioner acts up and we have to call the repairman from down the street. We don't have any fancy uniforms or big speeches. We just try to make sure the beds are made and the water is running. It’s a straightforward way to earn a living in a busy city like Delhi and we just get on with it.
