It was really great place to must visit in old ahmedabad city. I went to photowalk here by instagram here and they made here really nice wall paintings here any LXS ngo did that by the way and good architectural view too. They did vertical gardening here too which is really good idea to make city look better and also for hood environmental views of city. You can visit this place and more around to see heritage buildings of ahmedabad.

Must visit place in ahmedabad #heritagecity Dhal ni pol is the must visit place if you are visiting heritage purpose. Wall painting are very good. I dont know properly but there is some fees for visiting french haveli. And you can also stay in french haveli.

Located in a pol (housing cluster), this is a typical old city house of Ahmedabad (like many other its vicinity) converted into a comfortable home-stay. Its architecture, interiors and location inspires you to explore Indias first World Heritage City all the more.I came across this place while on a Chabutra Trail. Chabutras are bird-feeders, which you find in the pols of Ahmedabad. They are a symbol of community, compassion, creativity and charity. One of them is located just opposite the French Haveli.

We had a wonderful 3 nights stay at this quaint Haveli. The manager Mr Mohan, is very helpful and courteous. The ambience of the Haveli is a wonderful experience within the busy old city of Ahmedabad. Proximity to major monuments is a great plus for this haveli

The French Haveli, a restored heritage haveli is located in Ahmedabad. The City Centre is 1 km. The French Haveli is 150 years old.Its is a gracefully restored heritage hotel in the heart of Walled city of Ahmedabad.Ahmedabad-based builder, Rajiv Patel, who owns French Haveli in the walled city, is the man who started the cultural heritage restoration mission a decade ago.The French Haveli previously known as Arts Reveri is renamed by the new owner commenting the Indo-French Project. The name is derived to commemorate the first of its kind ‘Indo-French project’ in India to ‘revitalize the Old City of Ahmedabad’. French architects restored this Haveli and lived here. Threee Foundation restored this century-old haveli.While the haveli offers a micro-lesson in heritage conservation.Watch this video for information about initiative by French Haveli.French Haveli has five compact rooms, including Mahajan Suite. Agaashi, the terrace room, with two queen-size beds and en-suite bathroom (Malo and Chabutro rooms have bathrooms on the outside). Ordo Double bedroom is on 1st floor.Agaashi’s sun-kissed private balcony, lined with bougainvillea creepers.If affords a nice view of the pol’s Chabutra (the bird feeder), a 100 yrs old Jain temple.After the beautiful entrance there is “jhula” which is feature of many Gujarati Homes. The is a big “tanka” built for storing rain water for summer months.At French Haveli you will find a shared kitchen. Other facilities offered at the property include a shared lounge, a ticket service and luggage storage. Heritage tours can be arranged.Haveli is 7 km from Gandhi Ashram and 8 km from Sardar Patel Stadium. The Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport is 15 km awayand the State Transport Bus Station are within 2 km.visit amdavadiheritage for more information about heritage place

Elevation was good . but inside of this haveli is not as much as attractive however it is my personal opinion. you can watch it by paying 100rs fees. Foreigners choose it for stay. stay cost around 4000 to 5000.

Simply combining modern era interiors with essence of retro elements. A great place to stay, a great place for photography and on the top, heart warming locality.

I had a truly amazing stay. This old haveli made me feel like I was living in a place from the beginning of last century. In every corner there are beautiful old-style chairs, tables and furniture. The location is great, the room was very cosy and the staff was attentive and warm. The man who works in the house welcomed us with tea and pastries, and the day we left he went the extra mile and prepared a good breakfast really early in the morning. All in all, I had a wonderful time. Many thanks to the staff for making this experience awesome!

Fantastic and unique place. It is an old haveli-style house dating back 180 years ago. Each of its 3 floors is beautifully decorated and filled with antique pieces everywhere. It reminded me of my grandma’s old house back in Spain. The room was spacious and very clean. The bed was big and comfortable, and the bathroom was clean. The staff were friendly and charming. If I come back to Ahmedabad, I will definitely stay here again.

Pleasant stay. Staff are very helpful even though their English is a bit limited. Breakfast was filling and caffetiere coffee is available.Its in a traditional Pol, and so it is not that quiet (other families and children shouting, prayer calls from the nearby mosque and people ringing bell at the temple opposite). Its also difficult to get transport to/from restaurants, as cars cant travel into the Pol. The roads in the Pol are very poor quality. You have to walk for 5 mins to the main road. This isnt the Havelis fault, though, but just saying for other travellers -- better to bring a rucksack.Only problem with the Haveli itself is that the hot water tank is incredibly small. There is not enough hot water for one shower, if you are washing your hair and its shoulder-length. For two people, you have to wait for 20mins for more hot water.

Its an ancient artitectured haveli located at old city area of ahmedabad. Inside one of famous pol - Dhal ni Pol. A must visit place. One of great heritage place within Ahmedabad to look into the heritage we have. Streets are lively. And New generation has made efforts like wall painting, Some designs, a concept like vertical garden.

Its a wonderful small mansion near the Astodia darwaja inside old city. Once inside, it feels like a warmest home. I immediately felt at home. The caretakers are nice. Food, though costly, is tasty and simple. The building has been restored, hence gives a feel of old good times.

Review №22

Quaint haveli in old Ahmedabad. Hard to access and in a poor and dirty neighborhood. But it is an experience to dodge cows, two wheelers and slush in narrow lanes that can barely take two abreast.That said, the French Haveli is an oasis of warmth and comfort in the city and one we would return to again. Rooms are well appointed, the coffee is sensational and the team of Mohan and Bansi are the most motivated, responsive and caring staff a place can have. They made our stay special.

Review №27

I stayed at the Mariott then moved the nexy night to the French Haveli. The FH required a transfer from our taxi to a rickshaw to get up the alley. The alley was relatively clean, but still had cow and dog droppings all over. The people we saw all could tell we were looking for the hotel and gave us directions. The house was very pretty on the inside, with clean rooms and showers. The next day my son played cricket with some neighborhood boys. One of the rooms had a balcony. The indoor stairs are very steep, and not safe for anyone with bad arthritis. If you want to try something different from the Marriott or Hyatt, this is a very nice alternative.

Great tea and breakfasts...on demand ...especially Poha...awesome haveli stay experience ....not easy to get here...but worth the effort..u have drag ur luggage a bit from uber cabs drop-offs...but a luggage service is available if u inform them in advance.
