DHA (Defence Housing Authority) is a large, leafy, upmarket residential area in south-east Lahore, known for quiet, secure neighbourhoods, modern dining and boutique stays. It’s a calmer, more suburban base than central Gulberg, with good access to the airport.
What to expect
Fewer big-brand hotels than Gulberg, but a growing choice of boutique hotels, serviced apartments and guest houses in a safe, upscale setting, popular with longer-stay and business visitors.
Getting around
DHA is well-connected by ride-hailing and is relatively close to Allama Iqbal International Airport; the old-city sights are a longer but straightforward drive. We arrange private transfers and tours from anywhere in the city.
