Ginger Chandigarh, Zirakpur

We stayed in this property twice for 24 hours each. It is a good compact hotel. Few observations: PROS: Food is good. Breakfast spread also good. Staff professional. Need to mention one specially. Rupinder Kaur. She is on reception.Very professional and ready to help. Even the restaurant staff is very courteous. Fairly close to the airport. 30 mts. CONS: Rooms are small for the price one pays. Bathrooms in the rooms very small. Location is in Zirakpur an industrial area. So , outside scene is not encouraging.

Rooms are very small and not worth for it’s cost. Secondly service is poor. I missed my jacket in my room during check out and even after informing them immediately they sent it for laundry and charged me for the same.

Rooms are small but neat and clean. Perfect business stay. The buffet could have been better. Price is ok.

Very bad experience when i came to check in the whole staf was busy in Group Check in and i ws ask to wait No one giving attention to other Guests . The service is zero , first they denied that they do not have reservation after wasting my time i was ask to wait until group check done the room was decent but my check in experience very bad that was my first and last stay

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.
