Hotel Nalanda
Adults-only fireplace terrace, close to IIM Ahmedabad
About this hotel
Hotel Nalanda pairs its adults-only room category with a sun terrace and outdoor fireplace, a rarer combination in Ahmedabad, where most terrace hotels serve a broadly family-friendly crowd. The location works well for a quieter business or couple's stay: IIM Ahmedabad sits 4.6 kilometers away and the Sabarmati Riverfront 3.8 kilometers, both within easy reach of the property's central position nine kilometers from the airport. Rooms come with a tea and coffee maker, refrigerator and free WiFi, and the modern, family-friendly restaurant, despite its name, serves Chinese, Indian, local, Asian and international cuisine with a genuinely broad breakfast menu including continental, American, buffet and full English or Irish options. A fitness centre and concierge service round out the practical side of a stay that couples have rated among the highest in the city for a two-person trip.
- Adults-only sun terrace
- Outdoor fireplace
- Fitness centre on-site
Our take
Hotel Nalanda is the strongest adults-only pick in Ahmedabad for travelers who want a genuine fireplace terrace alongside proximity to IIM Ahmedabad and the riverfront. It suits couples and small groups specifically, and is not an option for families given its adults-only room category throughout the whole property this time.
- ✓Book fireplace terrace time for a December or January evening, when the fire is genuinely necessary after dark.
- ✓Walk or drive to the Sabarmati Riverfront, 3.8 kilometers away, for an evening promenade walk.
- ✓Try the full English or Irish breakfast option for a change from the standard continental spread.
Why we love it
- Adults-only sun terrace with outdoor fireplace
- 4.6 kilometers from IIM Ahmedabad
- Genuinely broad international breakfast menu
- Highly rated for two-person trips
Why guests love itMy partner and I spent both evenings of our December stay around the outdoor fireplace, the fire genuinely necessary once the temperature dropped after dark. IIM Ahmedabad was close enough for an early morning walk before the day heated up, and the quiet of the adults-only floor meant we never had to negotiate pool time with anyone else's children at all.
