I don’t usually post reviews, but I just had to for this one.
I visit Amritsar every year—sometimes once, sometimes more—and I’ve stayed in countless hotels near the Darbar Sahib. My only real filter has always been that the hotel should be walking distance from the Gurudwara. Since my visits are usually short (a weekend or just one night), I tend to go for small hotels. Over the years, I’ve stayed in everything from decent to downright awful places—especially because my visits are around Diwali, when the city is packed and options are limited.
This time Oct 11-12, I found a new property that I hadn’t come across before, and I’m so glad it did. It’s just about 250 meters from Jallianwala Bagh, right at the point where the Gurudwara complex begins (meaning vehicles can’t go further—so yes, you’ll be walking from there).
The location is perfect, and the property itself is a gem—brand new, clean, quiet, and free from the usual crowd and noise of the area. The rooms are surprisingly spacious (bigger than some Ibis locations I’ve stayed in), spotless, and well-maintained.
Service was excellent, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We were a family of six, and they kindly gave us ground floor rooms and all together - since we had two elderly members with us. (There’s also a lift for convenience.)
I’m writing this review because the hotel truly deserves recognition. My first instinct was honestly to gatekeep it but credit where it’s due: the owner and staff are doing an exceptional job.
Having worked in travel and experienced many global hotel chains, I can confidently say: you won’t be disappointed here. Highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Amritsar.
