Location and neighbourhood

Riverfront and Ellisbridge sit on the west bank of the Sabarmati River. This part of Ahmedabad is a natural starting point for first-time visitors. The Sabarmati Riverfront promenade runs along both banks, with Atal Bridge linking Ellisbridge directly to the old city on the east side. Many of Ahmedabad's best-known sights are within a short walk or a quick auto ride. The area is quieter than the walled city but still busy with local life. You can watch the river from the promenade, cross the footbridge in the evening, or explore the tree-lined streets around Ellisbridge. It is a practical base for sightseeing without staying inside the old city's narrow lanes.

The west side of the river has broad roads, modern buildings and a relaxed pace. Ellisbridge itself is one of the older bridges across the Sabarmati. The area is well connected to the rest of the city by auto-rickshaws, app-based cabs and AMTS buses. The nearest metro station on the Blue Line is a short ride away. From here you can reach the walled city's monuments in under fifteen minutes on foot or by auto. The riverfront is especially pleasant in the early morning or just before sunset. First-time visitors will find the mix of old and new easy to navigate.

Getting there and around

Exora Inn is around 9.1 km from the airport and around 3.3 km from Ahmedabad Junction at Kalupur. The nearest metro stop on the Blue Line is a short auto ride away. From there you can reach the walled city, Law Garden or the riverfront. Auto-rickshaws and app-based cabs are easy to find on the main roads. Many of the main sights are within walking distance if you are comfortable crossing Atal Bridge. The Sabarmati Riverfront has a long promenade for walking or cycling. For longer trips, the BRTS bus network and AMTS buses connect the area to other parts of the city. Check the current metro and bus routes as they are extended regularly.

Nearby sights and food

From Exora Inn you can walk across Atal Bridge to the old city. Sidi Saiyyed Mosque is a short walk from the bridge; its stone jali windows are the most photographed in Ahmedabad. Bhadra Fort and Teen Darwaza are just beyond the mosque. Jama Masjid, built in 1424, is a large sandstone mosque with a calm courtyard. The night market near the fort sells food after dark. On the west side, Law Garden has evening food stalls and a lively atmosphere. All these sights are within a few kilometres of Exora Inn.

Gujarati street food is the highlight of this area. Look for stalls selling dhokla, khaman, fafda and jalebi. In the evening, the market near the fort fills with vendors preparing pav bhaji, dosa and sweet dishes. Law Garden has a cluster of stalls with local snacks and drinks. The food is largely vegetarian. You will find small eateries serving Gujarati thali for lunch. The night markets are busy but safe. Try undhiyu if you are visiting during winter. Most dishes are freshly made and inexpensive.

A day from Exora Inn
