The Pride Hotel Pune
Shivaji Nagar comfort with a garden restaurant nearby
About this hotel
The Pride Hotel Pune sits a minute's walk from Shivaji Nagar, putting the old city and Shaniwar Wada within easy reach while the hotel's own outdoor pool, spa and fitness room cover a full day's downtime. Free breakfast and two restaurants plus a bar keep dining largely on-site, and a short taxi ride to Savannah, the garden restaurant and cafe, adds a change of pace for an evening out. The business center serves a steady flow of corporate guests, but the Shivaji Nagar location gives the property a more central, old-city feel than the Kharadi or Viman Nagar towers built purely around the IT corridors. The hotel closes its pitch on balance: business-ready, but genuinely close to Pune's history.

Our take
This hotel suits travelers who want to combine business facilities with easy access to Shaniwar Wada and the old city, without paying Koregaon Park's premium. It's a less natural fit for travelers chasing a rooftop or elevated pool setting, since the outdoor pool here sits within the hotel's own ground-level grounds.
- ✓Walk to Shivaji Nagar and Shaniwar Wada in the same outing, since both sit close enough to the hotel to combine into one morning.
- ✓Book a table at Savannah for dinner at least once, a short taxi ride and a good change from the hotel's own two restaurants.
- ✓Use free breakfast daily rather than skipping it, one of the property's more reliable cost savers on a multi-night stay.

Why guests love itBeing a minute from Shivaji Nagar made The Pride Hotel an easy base for exploring Shaniwar Wada without a long taxi ride each way, and free breakfast every morning kept our costs down over a five-night stay. Savannah was a nice change of pace one evening, and the pool gave the kids somewhere to cool off after a day of walking around the old city's forts and markets.
