The setting

Super Townhouse Balewadi Stadium Pune Formerly Hotel Sarovar stands on Survey No. 917 Patil Nagar, off the Mumbai Bangalore Highway in Mahalunge, within the Wakad neighbourhood of Pimpri-Chinchwad. The Balewadi Metro Station is close by, giving access to Pune's metro network. The hotel is about 2.6 km in a straight line from Hinjewadi IT Park Phase 1, and about 12.1 km from Shaniwar Wada in the old city centre.

Location and neighbourhood

Wakad sits in the south-west of Pimpri-Chinchwad, a fast-growing suburb that has expanded rapidly alongside the Hinjewadi IT corridor. For a first-time visitor, Wakad feels like a base camp: it is close to the Mumbai–Pune Expressway and offers easy access to both the old city and the hills. The area itself is a grid of new apartment blocks, commercial plazas and wide roads. Instead, Wakad's value lies in its position. You can reach the centre of Pune in about 30 minutes by car, and the expressway takes you towards Lonavala and the Western Ghats. The neighbourhood is practical, not scenic.

Getting there and around

Super Townhouse Balewadi Stadium Pune Formerly Hotel Sarovar is around 16.7 km from Pune International Airport and around 13.3 km from Pune Junction. The Mumbai–Pune Expressway is a short drive away, making Wakad a convenient stop for travellers arriving by road. For local travel, auto-rickshaws are plentiful. Buses run along the main roads but can be slow in peak hours. Rideshare apps work well. If you plan to explore the city centre, allow 30 to 45 minutes each way.

Nearby sights and food

Most of Pune's major sights are a short drive from Wakad. The Aga Khan Palace, where Mahatma Gandhi was held, is about 20 minutes east. Shaniwar Wada, the 18th-century seat of the Peshwas, lies in the old city near the Mula-Mutha river. The Pataleshwar caves, an 8th-century rock-cut temple, are on Jangli Maharaj Road. For a view of the city, climb the 103 steps of Parvati Hill. Further afield, Sinhagad fort is about an hour's drive south-west. These sights are best visited by taxi or hired car; public transport from Wakad is limited.

Wakad's food scene is modern and varied. You will find North Indian, South Indian, Chinese and Punjabi restaurants in the commercial plazas. For a taste of Pune, look for misal pav, a spicy curry of sprouted moth beans topped with farsan and served with bread. Vada pav, the Maharashtrian potato fritter in a bun, is sold at street stalls. Bakarwadi, a crisp, spiralled snack, is a local speciality. Mastani, a thick milkshake blended with ice cream, is a popular dessert. Many small eateries serve Puneri thali, a complete meal with rice, dal, bhaji and puri.
