“Ahmedabad Junction, also known as Kalupur Station (station code ADI), is the primary rail hub in Gujarat—serving over 300 trains daily across 12 platforms, with clean facilities and digital signage throughout.  🚗 Travel & Access: • Located in Kalupur area, it’s well-connected to major Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Jaipur and across Gujarat. Metro access is available at Kalupur Railway Station Metro on Ahmedabad’s Blue Line.   • First‑time visitors often find road routes to be congested during peak hours; using Metro or prepaid auto services can save time.   🏨 Stay Nearby: • A wide range of lodging options are within a short walk—budget rooms start from ₹400–600 per night, basic AC hotels ₹700–1,200, and mid‑range hotels and lodges nearby.  • Also, popular hotel chains like FabHotels offer affordable and hygienic stays near the station.  🧳 Amenities & Facilities: • Facilities include escalators, elevators, food and drink stalls, cloakrooms (₹15–20/bag for 24 hrs), auto and taxi stands, Wi‑Fi, waiting rooms, and a VIP lounge (₹500 for 6 hrs). Cleanliness is decent but can improve at times.  • Cloakroom accessible at platform no.1 gate; digital boards and staff assistance available. Busy during peak hours.  🌇 Nearby Attractions: • Easily accessible to attractions like Jama Masjid (~2 km), Teen Darwaza, Kankaria Lake, Sabarmati Riverfront, Sidi Bashir Mosque, and Manek Chowk food stalls.
Ahmedabad Railway Station is one of the most important and busiest stations in India-but it deserves better surroundings. The station plays a vital role in connecting Gujarat to the rest of the country, but the area around it is quite dirty and unorganized. For a city like Ahmedabad, known for its culture and progress, this doesn't leave a good impression on travelers. Cleanliness and better maintenance are urgently needed, especially in the areas just outside the station. With a little effort, this station can reflect the true spirit of Gujarat-vibrant, clean, and welcoming!
Kalupur Railway Station is the main and one of the biggest railway stations in Gujarat. Almost every major train stops here — whether you're going to Mumbai, Delhi, Rajasthan, or South India, you’ll find options from this station. It’s located near the Kalupur market, so the area around is always active. Gita Mandir bus stand is also nearby, which makes it easy if you need to switch between train and bus. All basic facilities are available at the station — food stalls, toilets, drinking water, waiting rooms, and transport options outside. Right now, the station is being renovated and modernized, so some construction work is going on, but overall the management is handling it well. Even though it's busy and sometimes a bit chaotic, it’s a strong travel hub — and with the new changes coming in, it’ll be even better.

Reviews

Ahmedabad Junction, also known as Kalupur Station, is a bustling railway hub in Gujarat connecting the city to major Indian destinations. The station offers essential facilities like waiting rooms, food stalls, and clean drinking water. While cleanliness and crowd management could be improved, the station's connectivity and availability of trains make it a vital travel point. Auto-rickshaw services outside may overcharge, so bargaining or using prepaid options is recommended.

Ahmedabad Railway Station is clean and well managed. It has facilities like waiting rooms, food stalls, and clean sitting areas. Announcements are clear, and it’s just a short walk from Sarangpur Janpath Marg bus stop, so very easy to reach. Only one issue — the person at the toilet counter asked for ₹5 just to pee, which should actually be free.

❌ Ahmedabad Junction Worst Experience Outside! The station is fine and clean, but the moment you step out it’s chaos. Those auto and taxi guys outside are absolute nightmare. They’ll keep chasing, shouting, and disturbing you nonstop just to force you into their autos. No manners, no respect just pure harassment. It’s disgusting how no one controls them. They literally ruin the whole travel experience. If you visit this station, don’t even look at them just ignore and walk fast. Total harassment zone outside! Avoid engaging at all costs.
