Hotel Aram

Gujarat & Diu


This former royal property has had an upgrade, creating an interesting mix of historical and contemporary. Rooms vary widely, from simple standards to luxurious superdeluxe rooms and suites, some of which can’t decide on a style. Still, it’s the nicest place around. There’s a very popular multicuisine veg restaurant with garden seating. It’s 1.5km northwest of the city centre
