Artilla Inn
Sun terrace and garden, close to the riverfront
About this hotel
Artilla Inn centers its stay around outdoor space more than most Ahmedabad hotels at this price point, with a sun terrace, garden and outdoor fireplace giving the property a genuine terrace-first feel. City-view rooms come with a work desk, minibar and free WiFi, and the location, nine kilometers from the airport and close to the Sabarmati Riverfront at 3.1 kilometers and Gandhi Ashram at six, keeps the old city's key sights within a short drive. The restaurant leans into Chinese and Indian cuisine across lunch, dinner and high tea, a menu range broader than most similarly priced properties nearby. Guests consistently mention attentive staff and room cleanliness, and the outdoor fireplace turns the terrace into a genuine evening destination once winter temperatures drop after dark.

- Garden seating area
- Free private parking
Our take
Artilla Inn suits travelers who want real outdoor terrace time, garden and fireplace included, without booking a five-star hotel. It particularly rewards a winter stay, when the outdoor fireplace and sun terrace see their heaviest use; a summer visit will find those same spaces considerably quieter and largely unused until evening.
- ✓Book November through February to actually use the outdoor fireplace on the sun terrace after dark.
- ✓Drive to the Sabarmati Riverfront in the evening, just 3.1 kilometers, for a walk along the promenade.
- ✓Try the high tea service if visiting in the afternoon between sightseeing stops.

Why guests love itWe sat by the outdoor fireplace most evenings during a December stay, the garden quiet enough to hear the city fade into the background. The Sabarmati Riverfront walk became our regular after-dinner routine, close enough that we never needed a taxi, and the high tea service one afternoon was a genuinely nice surprise between two sightseeing days on a busy itinerary.
