Strategically located just 20 minutes from Ludhiana Railway Station and around 1.5 hours from Shaheed Bhagat Singh International Airport in Chandigarh, the hotel will also benefit from proximity to the upcoming Halwara Airport, only a 15–20-minute drive away. It offers excellent connectivity to major North Indian cities such as Delhi, Patiala, Bathinda, Amritsar, Jalandhar, and Moga.
The hotel will also feature expansive event and banquet facilities, including a large outdoor lawn ideal for weddings, conferences, and social events.
