The spirit has remained completely undaunted, despite the unsparing and relentless corona-virus, which has wreaked havoc all over the world and severely affected the hospitality sector in particular. It was under such difficult circumstances that The Connaught in Delhi -- the latest addition in IHCL’s SeleQtions -- recently opened as the group’s 15th property in Delhi NCR, with avant-garde offerings discreetly blending with the art deco of Connaught Place. Conceptualised by globally renowned Swedish designer, Christian Lundwall, the 104-room hotel offers Delhi’s legendry favourites dishes from succulent kababs and butter chicken to Old Delhi’s famous chaat and akhrot ki tikki. The stylish restaurant and cocktail bar The Hub is fast emerging as the capital’s favourite watering hole. The restaurant opens into an alfresco dining space which further extends into the bar.
The newest address in the hospitality sector is located right in the centre of historic Connaught Place and provides a perfect haven for all categories of travellers, including those on business or leisure. A stunningly beautiful lobby with charming terraces, the guests at the hotel have an option to savour the gastronomical delights in contemporary-styled spaces. The opening of this property has further strengthened South Asia’s largest hospitality company’s presence in Delhi.
“This is a unique one-of-a-kind hotel,” insists Sonali Chauhan, general manager, The Connaught. “Apart from being excessively pet-friendly, with devoted-animal lovers going to extremes on pet getaways, the hotel also offers select rooms for lady travellers.” Pet parties, coupled with pet-cations, are a major attraction.
