The setting

Hotel Paras Palace is on Naroda Road at Himalaya Square, Fourth Floor, near Galaxy Cinema. Naroda is an industrial and residential area in East Ahmedabad. Ahmedabad Junction railway station is about 7.1 km away in a straight line. Sabarmati Ashram is also about 7.1 km away.

Location and neighbourhood

It is an industrial and residential district, home to the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation estate and a cluster of textile and chemical units. For couples seeking a slow weekend, the area offers a quieter base than the old city. The streets are wide, with local markets and small parks that see few tourists. Life here moves at an unhurried pace, and the air carries the scent of industry and roadside tea stalls. It is a place to observe everyday Ahmedabad, away from the monuments and the riverfront crowds.

Getting there and around

Hotel Paras Palace is around 1.6 km from the airport and around 7.1 km from Kalupur station. A cab or auto from the hotel takes you to the old city in about 30 to 40 minutes, depending on traffic. The nearest metro station is a short ride away; the Blue Line connects to the centre and the Red Line runs north-south. BRTS and AMTS buses stop near the district, but for a relaxed weekend, hiring an auto for the day is more convenient. Plan journeys outside peak hours to avoid the congestion on the Naroda road.

Nearby sights and food

No major sights lie within Naroda itself. A drive of 20 to 30 minutes brings you to the walled city, where you can walk the pols and see the carved havelis, chabutaras and khadki gates. The Sidi Saiyyed Mosque's stone jali windows and the Jama Masjid's courtyard are worth the trip. Further south, the Sabarmati Ashram offers a quiet afternoon by the river. The Calico Museum of Textiles requires a pre-booked guided tour. For a different pace, Kankaria Lake has a promenade and a zoo, though it can be busy on weekends.

Naroda's own food scene is modest: small eateries serve Gujarati thalis, dhokla, khaman and fafda with jalebi. For a more extensive choice, drive to the old city's evening food stalls in the market squares. There you find stalls selling pav bhaji, bhajiya, khandvi and thepla. Undhiyu appears in winter, especially around Uttarayan. Everywhere, the food is vegetarian. A slow weekend allows you to try a different dish at each stop, without rushing.

A day from Hotel Paras Palace

A day from Hotel Paras Palace begins with a late breakfast at a local tea stall, then a drive to the walled city. Start at the Jama Masjid and the Sidi Saiyyed Mosque, then wander into the pols around Rani no Hajiro. By mid-morning, head to the Sabarmati Ashram for a peaceful walk through Gandhi's former home. The museum there is free; check opening days. Lunch can be a Gujarati thali at one of the old city's dining halls. Afternoon: the Calico Museum of Textiles if you have a booking, or the Adalaj stepwell north of the city. Return to Hotel Paras Palace in the late afternoon. Evening: a slow stroll along the Sabarmati Riverfront or Atal Bridge, then dinner at the old city's evening food stalls before heading back.
