You'll Love The Old-World Charm Of This Offbeat Heritage Hotel In Ahmedabad

Sitting on the cusp of old world charm and a very contemporary vibe, The House of MG is an urban heritage hotel that is a great option for an offbeat getaway to Ahmedabad for your New Year’s Eve, especially if you’re into artsy stuff.

Opposite the Sidi Sayyed Jali {a stunning mosque with the most intricate of lattice work}, The House of MG gives easy access to the glorious heritage of the city while at the same time, it isn’t too far from some of the most touristy places, including the Sabarmati Riverfront and Gandhi’s Ashram.

Daily guided heritage walks {a night and a day one} that the hotel organizes are a wonderful way to lose yourself to the charms of a bygone era, and revel in the secret wonders of the pols. Walk into the new year discovering a whole new side of Ahmedabad.

Each nook of the property is rich in art, meticulously detailed and tastefully done, with clever flourishes here and there. Sepia tinted family portraits adorn most walls, and the family legacy built on textile is apparent both at an onsite museum, and sit-outs in common areas. A terrace garden, lush courtyards and a wondrous cascading waterfall add a verdant vibe to the stately opulence of the place.

Rooms are fitted with the traditions of an old haveli, including a swing in the living area, and stately four poster beds that add to the grandness of the property. Perfect way to start the next 365 days for an old soul, isn’t it?

The House of MG is home to Agashiye, arguably the city’s finest traditional restaurant, which puts the swag back in the very homely Gujarati thali. Spread across two terraces, this all vegetarian eatery has a daily changing menu and an unending supply of hearty, delicious food. From farsaan that’s good enough to doggy bag, to soul food like khichdi, hot dal and veggies and even an eclectic mix of mukhvas {mouth fresheners} the joys of this unadulterated gluttony deserve a post of their own.

For quick bites and pick-me-ups, the hotel also houses an al fresco café- The Green House that’s perfect for healthy snacks, freshly brewed coffee or even handmade ice-cream.

Discover the city of Ahmedabad and let The House of MG make your stay better with its old world charm, impeccable food and stunning architecture that’s a true representation of this glorious city.
