The Leela unveils new hotel in New Delhi

The Leela Palaces, Hotels & Resorts will unveil its newest hotel in the heart of New Delhi this September 2010.

Excellently located in the exclusive diplomatic enclave at Chanakyapuri, the hotel is in close proximity to the commercial and business districts as well as the historical monuments making it a great choice for the business and leisure traveller. The international and domestic airports are both a short distance away from the hotel.

The interiors of this new hotel are inspired by European classical architecture with subtle references to the rich culture and history of India. Spaces are timeless and elegant with a grandeur that befits this landmark hotel. The exquisite craftsmanship of India is showcased in its architectural details and select furnishings. Lightly honed limestone walls and handcrafted marble floors set the tone for a regal and welcoming promenade that creates a warm and welcoming ambience for every guest. Rich hand-blown crystal chandeliers light up the evenings at dusk creating a warm and sensuous mood.

The 260 guest rooms are luxurious and generous in size adding to a sense of exclusiveness when staying at the hotel. All deluxe suites at the hotel have their own dip pools. In addition, The Royal Club offers exclusive value added benefits that all discerning travellers will welcome. Attention to detail in the rooms is evident everywhere from the hand-woven rugs to the carefully selected sculptures and tapestries. Refined taste and elegance is reflected in the marble vanities, dual wash basins, deep-soaking bathtubs and separate showers. Round-the-clock butler service is available to cater to every guest’s needs.

Fine dining options offer a choice of Indian, Italian and Japanese cuisine served in elegantly designed restaurants. There is also an all-day dining restaurant in a unique glass enclosure. Well appointed bars add to the overall experience.

There is also a spa by the world renowned ESPA which offers a comprehensive range of rejuvenating treatments in a relaxed and serene atmosphere. Recreational facilities include a roof-top swimming pool and a well-equipped fitness centre.

The Leela Palace Kempinski New Delhi has several venues for select gatherings, meetings and conferences. A Grand Ballroom with a pre-function area is part of the many banqueting and conference facilities the hotel offers.

The hotel is the perfect choice for a business meeting or a relaxed weekend. One can experience the true spirit of Indian hospitality at its best and can enjoy a unique new experience at New Delhi’s newest grand hotel.
