Ginger Chandigarh, Zirakpur

We were travelling from Delhi to Shimla, using the “toy train” from Kalka as the last part of the journey. Not wanting to cover the whole distance on the same day, we elected to stay in the Chandigarh area after flying from Delhi before continuing onward the following day. The Ginger Hotel, part of the IHCL/Taj Group, was a well placed intermediary stop - 13 km from the airport and 30km to Kalka station - and provided a clean, welcoming oasis for both the outward and return travels. Situated a couple of hundred metres from National Highway 44, the hotel was unaffected by traffic noise and provided a peaceful haven with a restaurant offering predominately Indian cuisine. All staff were welcoming and helpful - for example, booking taxis for our onward journeys from the hotel with guidance on the maximum prices that we should be paying. The restaurant staff were similarly of great assistance, adding that they thought we were ordering too much at dinner (correctly so) and pointing to special 2-for-1 offers on beers. The only issue was they wanted to keep feeding us with a variety of foods at breakfast but in so doing they ensured that we did not need to eat until the evening!!! If making the same journey in future, I would have no problem with planning to stay at the Ginger Hotel.

Nice hotel with good food. Recommended for stay. Please plan your visit to it hotel. It is on main road and accessible to nearby locations for outings. Various other outlets are nearby for shopping eating etc and good parking space. Encouraged by staff behavior.

The hotel is located in a nice and peaceful area, opposite to DMart. The staff is very friendly and supportive. Subhash from the food and restaurant department was very friendly and attentive to the needs, especially my Jain food requirement. Rooms are nice and have required amenities. It was a good stay overall.
