The House of MG

A really great, well-renovated historic property. The public spaces, restaurants and shops are absolutely beautiful. The location in the middle of the old city is excellent. My room was enormous and well appointed, but had not outside windows. Perhaps the front desk and housekeeping staff need a bit more training. I arrived after 3:00 pm to be told my room was not ready, even though check-in time was 3:00 pm. I was asked to wait "5 minutes", and when I inquired again in 20 minutes was AGAIN asked to wait 5 minutes. On the first day I when out for four hours to return to an unmade up bed. The desk said someone would be sent, but no-one arrived. Otherwise, service was friendly and efficient. The hotel could use a good walking make of the old city.

Real Indian style and taste. You hardly find this anywhere else.

A beautiful heritage property in the heart of the city. We were initially given a room facing the street, which is very busy and very noisy. We requested one away from the street and were given room 23 downstairs. The room had twin beds, a large desk, a small divan, minibar and safe. The en-suite bathroom was very good-sized. Towels were wonderfully thick and soft and robes were provided. Nice toiletries provided and there was no issue with having plenty of hot water for bathing (shower only in this room). Wifi worked very well throughout the hotel. There is a lovely indoor pool, but the water was way too cold to consider a dip. There is a lovely garden on the upper level at the back and a rooftop terrace with a nice view of the setting sun. The breakfast in the attached garden restaurant was vegetarian, but a nice variety with eggs made to order. We did not try the upstairs restaurant, but did look at the menu and the prices seemed very high compared with other local restaurants. There is a beautiful mosque just across the street with amazing carving work. There is also a fun cafe also across the street with loads of character--tree growing through the roof and graves inside the cafe. The local area is walkable if you are a brave soul. Traffic is as traffic is in India. We found the city not too dirty by Indian standards. If inclined to do so, you could walk to the main market and even the mosque in about 15 minutes. A guaranteed good time awaits you here.

Beautiful one of a kind historic boutique hotel. Huge room (#127) with a separate sitting area and large functional bathroom. Friendly staff. Must experience at least once. Folks I met in Ahmedabad raved about the Gujarati Thali at the restaurant called Aghasheye though I did not have a chance to eat there.

Check in required so long time.

Fantastic Heritage Hotel with original features but modern at the same time. The only fault we had was a shower where there was not enough hot water and a party across the road which went on until 3.30am and kept us awake.

Beautiful hotel, super helpful efficient staff.

Authentic place. Nice to stay in a heritage property

We enjoyed our stay. Very centrally located. Very well maintained rooms, courteous staff and a great choice of food. Would certainly love to go back.

What a property, amazed to stay in heritage property in the heart of the city.
