IHCL Expands Its Ginger Portfolio with New Hotel in Ahmedabad’s Thaltej District

The Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), India’s largest hospitality group, has strengthened its footprint in Gujarat with the debut of Ginger Ahmedabad, Kristar, located in the fast-developing neighbourhood of Thaltej. With this opening, IHCL now operates five Ginger-branded hotels across Ahmedabad, reinforcing its long-term focus on the city as a key growth market.

Speaking about the launch, Deepika Rao, Executive Vice President – New Businesses & Hotel Openings at IHCL, highlighted Ahmedabad’s rising potential driven by industrial expansion, entrepreneurship, and a growing preference for modern, design-led accommodation. She noted that Ginger’s lean luxe philosophy—which blends smart design with affordability—continues to resonate strongly with urban travellers in the region.

The newly opened property has been designed to offer comfort, efficiency, and contemporary style. It features thoughtfully curated rooms, the brand’s signature all-day dining restaurant Soulinaire, and adaptable meeting spaces suited for corporate gatherings or intimate social events. Its strategic position in Thaltej ensures quick access to major business districts, educational institutions, and cultural hotspots, making it an appealing choice for both leisure and business guests.

The addition of Ginger Ahmedabad, Kristar, further builds on IHCL’s strategy to grow across emerging urban hubs while meeting the evolving needs of India’s new-generation travellers. With this launch, the company deepens its presence in Gujarat and reaffirms Ginger’s positioning as a smart, stylish, and value-driven hospitality brand designed for today’s on-the-move guests.
