Indian luxury hotel group ITC Hotels will launch its first five-star leisure retreat in Manesar near Delhi, India, on 1 October including a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course and an ITC Hotels signature ‘Kaya Kalp - The Royal Spa’. The 104-suite resort, located in 300 acres of land within the Aravalli mountain range, is called the ITC Grand Bharat and is 40 minutes away from Delhi.
Kaya Kalp, the name of the spa, is a Sanskrit word that means rejuvenation of the mind, body and soul. The wellness facility has nine treatment rooms dedicated to achieve revitalisation: an Ayurveda suite, seven therapy rooms and a couples’ suite. In addition to traditional therapies, the spa will offer medicinal healing, detoxification programmes and yoga regimes from the Bihar School of Yoga.
There will also be a 130sq m (1,400sq ft) fitness centre offering classes such as Pilates and aerobics.
Leisure facilities at the hotel include four dining venues and a range of indoor and outdoor recreational activities such as golf, night treks, zorbing, kayaking and bird watching at nearby the Sultanpur National Park.
ITC Hotels has designed and built the property in line with its strict sustainable ‘Responsible Luxury’ vision. Water conservation facilities, on-site recycling plants and energy-efficient lighting is being installed.
The company is set to expand its portfolio with a second resort, The ITC Vilasa, due to open in mid 2015. Located 25km (15 miles) away from south Chennai, this resort will overlook the Bay of Bengal and will be the ITC Hotels’ first beach resort and spa.
It plans a further four hotels to open before 2018 – expanding ITC Hotels’ portfolio from 10 to 16 properties.
