Location and neighbourhood

This part of Ahmedabad holds layers of history beneath its modern surface. The riverfront promenades, rebuilt in recent years, offer clean, open space for morning walks and evening views of the old city skyline. Atal Bridge, a footbridge opened in 2022, links this side directly to the historic core. Ellisbridge itself is one of the city's older bridges, connecting colonial-era suburbs to the walled city. The area is quiet at night, with wide roads and a mix of mid-century and contemporary buildings.

The walled city across the river contains Ahmedabad's UNESCO World Heritage listing. Its pols, gated lanes of carved wooden havelis, date from the 15th century. Chabutaras, or bird-feeders, stand at many intersections. The Sidi Saiyyed Mosque, built in 1572–73, is famous for its stone jali windows. Bhadra Fort and Teen Darwaza, both from 1411, are a short walk from the bridge. Jama Masjid, completed in 1424, is one of India's finest mosques. The night market in the old city square transforms the area after dark.

Getting there and around

Hotel Bhavy is around 10.4 km from the airport and 4.9 km from Ahmedabad Junction at Kalupur. The Sabarmati Riverfront is a short walk away, and Atal Bridge lets you cross to the old city on foot. The nearest metro station on the Blue Line is a few minutes by rickshaw; check the current network for connections to the railway station and other parts of the city. BRTS buses run along the riverfront corridor. Walking is a good option for nearby sights, especially along the promenade. For longer trips, autos and app cabs are widely available.
