OYO 42743 Hotel Midway is a 3-star hotel in Punjab.

Guests rate it 3 across 110 reviews. It’s a midscale choice for Punjab.

Not for Amritsar, Chandigarh, Ludhiana or Jalandhar — the Shatabdi and Vande Bharat trains connect them in under 3 hours each. You do need a car for the heritage loop of Patiala, Fatehgarh Sahib, Anandpur Sahib and Kapurthala, because train connections between these towns can eat a whole day. Budget ₹3,500–4,500 per day for a Dzire with driver and fuel included. Self-drive is possible but Punjabi highway traffic and tractor-heavy village roads make it more work than it is worth.

Punjab works well for families with school-age children because the Golden Temple, Wagah border ceremony and Khalsa Heritage Complex at Anandpur Sahib are all engaging without needing hikes or long drives. Couples tend to prefer the heritage stays in Patiala (Neemrana’s Baradari Palace) and Kapurthala over the business hotels of Ludhiana. There is limited nightlife outside Chandigarh Sector 26 and the Elante Mall area. Honeymooners usually pair Punjab with Himachal, driving on from Pathankot to Dharamshala in about 3 hours.

Book Amritsar hotels 4–6 weeks ahead for any date between mid-November and mid-January, and specifically for Guru Nanak Jayanti when Heritage Street inventory sells out. Heritage properties in Patiala and Kapurthala have 10–20 rooms each and should be booked 6–8 weeks out year-round. Vande Bharat tickets from Delhi to Amritsar open 60 days ahead and the 6am departure fills first. Wagah border does not require booking but arrive by 3pm in winter for a seat.

A clean mid-range hotel across Punjab averages ₹3,000–4,500 per night in season. Amritsar sits slightly above this at ₹3,500–5,000 near the temple, Chandigarh and Mohali business hotels are ₹4,500–7,000, and the smaller towns like Bathinda, Sangrur or Hoshiarpur come in at ₹1,500–2,500. Top-end properties like the Taj Swarna or JW Marriott Chandigarh run ₹10,000–18,000. Off-season summer rates knock roughly a third off these numbers.

The walled city inside Hall Bazaar is walkable and cars are excluded within about 500 m of the Golden Temple, so if you stay on Heritage Street you will not need transport for the main sights. Jallianwala Bagh and the Partition Museum are both within a 10-minute walk of the temple. Beyond the old city — to Ranjit Avenue, the cantonment or the airport — you need an auto or cab. Chandigarh, by contrast, is not walkable between sectors; each sector is roughly 800 m across and you will use autos or Ola constantly.
