Being eight minutes' walk from UCP makes Royal Continental Hotel an obvious pick for anyone with business at the university, and its Block R3 spot in Phase 2 Johar Town keeps Bahria Lahore and UoE Lahore within a short drive too. Shaukat Khanum hospital is barely 200 metres away, with Gourmet, Jalal Sons and a Bank of Punjab branch all clustered nearby for meals and errands. Rooms are priced from PKR 8,500 to PKR 11,500 per day, which is reasonable for the neighbourhood. Guests get air-conditioned rooms with beds and mattresses ready, and there is parking on site, so arriving by car is no headache. A laundry service handles longer stays, CCTV security covers the building, and Wi-Fi plus filtered drinking water round out the basics. The appeal here is really the walkability: you can leave the car parked and reach the university, a pharmacy or a decent meal on foot. For visitors who value being close to Johar Town's medical and academic hubs without paying a premium, it is a practical, no-fuss place to base yourself for a few nights.
