The ITC group is opening its newest hotel this June in Kolkata - the ITC Royal Bengal. Why are we excited about this property opening next to the existing ITC Sonar Well, luxury, excellent service, dining options and a few other reasons come to mind. Read on to know more 

Royal-inspired Landmark

With the Colonial-style inspired by the architecture of Kolkata, the towering structure of ITC Royal Bengal will form an integral part of the city&rsquos skyline. Taking you back to experience the excellence of the classic British era, this hotel, adjacent to ITC Sonar, is a new landmark in the city.

Luxury Stay

The hotel boats of 456 rooms including 82 serviced apartments. Pick your stay among the 104 lavish smart rooms, the 14 suites or the serviced apartments to make your stay memorable.

Finest Dining Experience

Apart from the traditional vegetarian cuisine of the subcontinent, that will be served in Royal Vega (with the inclusion of the 300-year-old Sheherwali cuisine), the luxury hotel is also offering other interesting and unique experiences. The Grand Market Pavillion replicates Calcutta's Hogg Market or New Market, Ottimo Cucina Italiana is a live kitchen serving Italian, the Brass Room with a stone studded bar is inspired by Kolkata&rsquos heritage while the Jazz Bar will take you back to the golden age of the 1930s. The Darjeeling Lounge recreates the experience of the postcard-perfect tea estates from the 1800s.

Rejuvenating Spa

Another not-so-surprising amenity is the well-established and globally appreciated Kaya Kalp Spa of the ITC hotels. With specially designed treatment rooms, signature spa offers and indigenous therapies combined with traditional remedies, the most refreshing and relaxing experience is created for a guest. There is a fitness centre and a pool to cool off in after a work out or to keep fit on the go.

Perfect Banqueting

The city welcomes business travellers all year. Recognising the needs of these travellers, the ITC Royal Bengal has dedicated 5,630 sq m to banqueting - one of the largest in the state. The various break-out rooms, VIP lounges, the pillarless Grand Ballroom, multiple meeting spaces, sprawling lawns with a dedicated arrival lobby make the hotel an ideal place for both business and social events. And we predict it will be an upcoming wedding venue, too.
