Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts today announced its debut in the city of Hyderabad, the capital of Southern India’s Telangana state. Located in Gachibowli, a leading corporate hub and home to global tech giants, Le Meridien Hyderabad provides guests with an intimate and urban sanctuary in one of one of India’s most dynamic cities. The hotel design draws inspiration from the city’s rich heritage of craftsmanship and culture, blending minimalistic style with timeless chic elements. Commenting at the opening Neeraj Govil, Senior Vice President- South Asia Marriott International said, “The entry of this legendary brand will provide an even greater diversity of hotel choice for Hyderabad’s growing commercial and leisure markets. The city is a perfect match for a Le Méridien brand debut as we invite and entice the creative-minded traveller to savour the good life, and unlock the destination through the hotel’s mid-century modern design, refined cultural & culinary experiences, and easy access to the rich local culture of the city.”
The hotel offers a welcome experience, suffused with warmth and richness as one steps into a beautiful world of art, that holds centre court in the lobby. The spirit of Hyderabad is palpable through Le Méridien Hub, which is embellished with rich artworks that are signature to the geography and culture of the city. Attention arresting is the stunning lac & acrylic, Birdri (an intricate form of art & design work, inlaid with gold and silver) tiles that adorn the ceiling and come alive in a 3D tile panel. Le Méridien Hub combines design, technology and social living into one holistic offering, catering to the lifestyle needs of the digitally-driven, experiential traveller. Supporting this creative atmosphere is the transitional Latitude Bar. A space that indulges guests with signature Illy coffees, crafted by skilled baristas by day, before it transforms into hosting elegant evenings, that speak of sparkling aperitifs and enticing bites as part of the hotel’s signature Petit Plates programme
Every inch of the 241 artistically designed rooms at the Le Méridien Hyderabad is a nod to rich historically inspired design and textures. Kitted out with chic amenities and indulgent spaces bathed in natural light, the furnishings seamlessly intertwine with Hyderabad’s artifacts, traditionally crafted upholstery and sheer curtains that tint at the skyscrapers, of the city beyond. A rejuvenating spa, a rooftop pool and a fully equipped 24-hour fitness centre complete the hotel checklist.
