BEST NEW HOTEL
The Lalit Mangar, Faridabad
Just an hour’s drive from the capital,
The Lalit Mangar sits pretty in the lush
valley of Faridabad, ensconced by the
Aravallis. It is an experiential hotel
designed to follow the sounds of nature
and offers an assortment of outdoor
activities such as rock climbing,
cycling, and village walks to name a few.
The Lalit Mangar bags our award for
the Best New Hotel for its farm-to-table
approach in dining and the use of
natural raw materials such as chalk and
gravel as part of its specially rammed
earth architecture.
Andaz Delhi
Andaz Delhi is the stylish new hotel
that blends together a personal and
uncomplicated approach to hospitality
for its guests. The luxury lifestyle brand
of Hyatt has registered its footmark in the
galaxy of luxury hotels in Aerocity for its
vibrant settings. The star attractions of the
house are Juniper Bar, India’s first gin bar,
AnnaMaya, a modern European food hall,
and Andaz Studio, a carefully curated space
for meetings. The 401-room hotel gives
you 401 Reasons to Fall in Love With Delhi,
a custom made book placed in each room,
to acquaint travellers with the city it is
inspired from.
W Dubai, Al Habtoor City
If you’re a fan of contemporary hotels, the swanky
new W Dubai in the Al Habtoor City collection is
where the young and vibrant crowd loves to check
in. The hotel is inspired by the many driving lanes
of Dubai's highway, with the main check-in lounge
on the 30th floor of the hotel. Their hard-to-book
presidential suite, known as the Extreme Wow
Suite, has a giant round bed, a DJ station, a dance
floor, and even a catwalk ramp. FROM ABOVE: COURTESY OF THE LALIT MANGAR; COURTESY OF ANDAZ DELHI; COURTESY OF W DUBAI AL HABTOOR
