About the property:

Mention Ahmedabad and you get a picture of mad rush. Well, you can brush aside all the hurly-burly and head towards Divan’s Bungalow – an abode of peace, stateliness and comfort. Thankfully, it’s not too far from the city also. Be careful though, for you might get totally awestruck by its magnificence, which is so evident in its colonial façade, fountain fore court, two tower rooms with European-style tiled roofs, two grand Gujarati wooden jharokha-balconies and traditionally exquisite rooms and suites.Yes, it may take you some time to recover from the initial rapture. Divan’s Bungalow is a heritage hotel, which is woven by the character and traces of the Kadri family, the descendants of the “Sufis” of Baghdad. The Sufism is very much reflected in the rooms as well – Iftikhar Khana, Munir Khana, Salahuddin Khana, Siraj Khana and Zia Khana are named after the Kadri family. Don’t be surprised if you feel something is ethereal in the air!So, sashay your way through the heritage Bungalow and feel like a monarch for a few days. A little bit of pomp and show is not a bad idea, after all.Divan’s Bungalow also allows you to explore some of the interesting attractions of Ahmedabad, which you shouldn’t miss, such as Sabarmati Ashram, Law Garden Night Market, Sarkhej Roza and The Calico Museum of Textiles.
