In a significant boost to Gujarat’s fast-evolving hospitality ecosystem, The Forum Hotel & Convention has opened its doors, positioning itself as a flagship destination for global conventions, premium stays, and large-scale events.
The expansive property, spanning nearly 12 lakh sq. ft., integrates 195 rooms and suites with the adjoining Wyndham Ahmedabad Shela, adding another 192 upscale rooms—taking the combined inventory to 387 premium accommodations. Designed to host up to 5,000 guests, the development marks one of the largest event-led hospitality infrastructures in the state.
Ahmedabad’s global ambition finds a flagship

With over 32 venues, including a 40,000 sq. ft. grand pillarless ballroom, the property offers unmatched flexibility for global summits, exhibitions, and high-profile gatherings.
Its state-of-the-art auditorium, advanced acoustics, and multiple conference spaces enable simultaneous large-scale events—an essential capability for international MICE demand. Backed by parking for 1,500 vehicles and integrated hospitality services, it addresses critical infrastructure gaps for mega events in urban India.

Its integrated design ensures that accommodation, dining, training support spaces, and event venues operate cohesively—delivering a holistic experience tailored for global sporting and diplomatic engagements.
Tech-driven luxury & personalized experiences
Luxury at The Forum goes beyond aesthetics. The property leverages smart room technologies, intuitive service platforms, and design-led hospitality to create deeply personalized guest journeys.
From curated culinary offerings like Aurii (all-day global dining), +33 (French experiential cuisine), and Risqué (nightlife destination) to upcoming immersive concepts, the focus is on delivering experiences that blend global sophistication with local sensibilities.
Sustainability & smart infrastructure at core
Recognizing the growing importance of eco-conscious hospitality, The Forum integrates energy-efficient systems, optimized water usage, and responsible waste management practices into its operations. Its large-format event hosting is aligned with sustainable event protocols, ensuring reduced environmental impact without compromising scale or quality.
Shaping Ahmedabad’s MICE future
With Ahmedabad’s MICE ecosystem expanding rapidly, The Forum Hotel & Convention aims to play a defining role in positioning the city as a global convention powerhouse. Its long-term vision includes attracting international exhibitions, corporate summits, and cultural mega-events, thereby elevating Gujarat’s global hospitality footprint.
Vision from the top
Speaking on the launch, Kalpesh Prajapati, Managing Director, said: “At The Forum Hotel & Convention, our vision was to build a destination that reflects the ambition and growth of Gujarat. This is not just about infrastructure or scale — it is about creating a place where people come together to celebrate, connect, and create memories. We invite everyone to come, experience, and make memories at The Forum, where every moment is designed to become a meaningful experience.”
