Ginger Patna

Ginger Patna is IHCL's (Tata group) budget hotel at Dak Bungalow crossing on Fraser Road, right in the commercial centre. It has 70 compact rooms, the Café Et Cetera all-day diner, a conference room and a gym. Patna Junction is under a kilometre away and Gandhi Maidan about the same, so it's a good cheap base if you're arriving by train. Fraser Road is noisy and congested at most hours. Bihar is a dry state, so there's no alcohol. Mainstream budget hotel, not a gay venue.
