Encalm Privé (Domestic T1)
Indira Gandhi International · Delhi
Guide by Lounge Frog
Details checked
At a glance
One of three lounges in Terminal 1, and the best-rated of them. A premium domestic lounge with enough quiet for a read or a nap, food and drink worth arriving early for, and staff who look after you — though upkeep lets it down and anyone with a day pass can get in. It runs a full bar. Fine for a layover, not a reason to plan one. No network or membership access is recorded. Check the operator's current entry requirements.
