ITC Royal Gardenia, New Luxury Collection Hotel Opens in Bengaluru, India
October 22, 2009
Owned by ITC Limited, the hotel features 292 luxuriously appointed guest rooms and suites, an outdoor pool, tropical gardens, five world class restaurants and lounges, a state-of-the-art business center and a signature spa.
Committed to sustainable luxury, ITC Royal Gardenia implements research and practices used at the platinum rated ITC Green Centre in Gurgaon, including energy and water efficient plumbing, solar energy, a rainwater harvesting system and zero solid waste, ensuring the hotel remains carbon positive and energy neutral.
"The Luxury Collection is a portal to the world's most enriching and desirable destinations, where nothing less than an exceptional level of service, perfect location and indigenous personal offerings will do," said Paul James, Global Brand Leader, The Luxury Collection and St. Regis Hotels & Resorts. "Offering guests a mix of sophisticated elegance, eco-luxury, stunning design and spectacular location, ITC Royal Gardenia adds another jewel to The Luxury Collection brand's glittering portfolio."
"An 'eco responsible' ethos is an inherent part of ITC system and in creating ITC Royal Gardenia, the challenge was to see how luxury and responsibility could be in harmony together. True luxury cannot stand alone, it needs to embrace and harness the elements and at the same time give back to nature. We call this responsible luxury. Bengaluru has always been India's ultimate garden city and in our own small way, we hope to be able to give back to the city what time took away," said Nakul Anand, Divisional Chief Executive of ITC Hotels Division.
Taking inspiration from Bengaluru's numerous gardens and public parks, each of ITC Royal Gardenia's 11 floors follows a design theme based on various elements of nature including earth, water, fire, stone, foliage and more. Upon entering ITC Royal Gardenias wind-cooled atrium lobby, guests are enveloped in a stream of natural sunlight and tropical gardens created by the hotels vast windows, high ceiling and over 175,000 plants. Designed to grow vertically, the indoor gardens are soil free and use a state-of-the-art drip irrigation system to preserve water and energy. All of ITC Royal Gardenia's plants have been grown locally, helping to sustain local communities. Envisaged to exemplify the mood of an unhurried past, a dynamic present and an exciting future, ITC Royal Gardenia offers a lush oasis in the midst of Bengalurus bustling business district.
Dining at ITC Royal Gardenia indulges the senses offering a mix of authentic Indian and international fare. Guests are invited to enjoy dinner at ITC Royal Gardenia's signature Indian restaurant Kebabs & Kurries, featuring a variety of north Indian recipes, including signature dishes from the internationally acclaimed Bukhara, Dum Pukht and Peshawri restaurants. The hotel's 24-hour dining restaurant, The Cubbon Pavilion, offers international cuisine, indigenous Bengaluru flavors and innovative cuisine through its buffets and a la carte menu. The décor and architecture of The Lotus Pavilion echoes the spirit of Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace and is the perfect setting to experience Bangalore's great weather, while sipping on a hand- crafted beer with a selection of tapas or hors d'oeuvres. Guests can also enjoy fine single malts, wines and cocktails at the hotel's Highland Nectar bar, Mediterranean-style cuisine at West View restaurant and an innovative take on traditional Japanese fare at Edo.
