JW Marriott New Delhi Aerocity, a symbol of luxury and sophistication, is celebrating its 10th anniversary, marking an extraordinary journey in the heart of India's capital. In 2013, Marriott International expanded its presence in India with the grand inauguration of this magnificent hotel.
Reflecting on this milestone, Sandeep Gupta, Executive Chairman of Aria Hotels and Consultancy Pvt. Ltd., expressed his joy, saying, "Celebrating this remarkable journey is a source of immense happiness. It's a testament to the legacy of my late father, Padma Shri Sushil Gupta, and the successful partnership between Aria Hospitality and Consultancy Pvt. Ltd. and Marriott International. I'm grateful for the unwavering support of our guests, partners, and the dedicated team that has made this journey possible. I eagerly anticipate many more decades of providing unparalleled hospitality and creating cherished moments at JW Marriott New Delhi."
Culinary excellence has been at the core of the hotel's success, featuring a range of award-winning restaurants and lounges. The latest gem in their culinary crown is ADRIFT Kaya New Delhi, a Japanese Izakaya concept conceived by Sandeep Gupta and led by Michelin-starred chef David Myers. K3: New Delhi's Food Theatre, an all-day diner, offers a unique dining experience with three live kitchens showcasing Mediterranean, Asian, and Indian cuisines, all prepared by a team of master chefs. For those with a sweet tooth, the Delhi Baking Company delights with an array of desserts, bread, bakery products, and the finest illy coffee. JW Lounge caters to guests with a selection of premium spirits, cocktails, and hors d'oeuvres.
Sharad Datta, General Manager of JW Marriott New Delhi Aerocity, emphasized that their success isn't solely defined by their splendid facilities or elegant ambiance. Instead, it's the unwavering dedication of their associates who have tirelessly cared for their guests. In turn, their guests have nurtured their business by choosing them as their preferred destination. This journey has been remarkable, and they eagerly look forward to many more years of providing extraordinary experiences to their cherished guests.
Over the past decade, JW Marriott New Delhi has remained a beacon of luxury in Aerocity, offering 509 rooms and suites. The hotel has consistently pushed the boundaries of luxury and has made a strong commitment to sustainability by setting up an in-house water bottling plant, reducing the use of over 50 lakh plastic water bottles in the last three years. The hotel is also renowned for providing over 30,000 sq. ft. of flexible convention spaces, including a 12,000 sq. ft. pillar-less ballroom, making it an ideal choice for meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions.
As JW Marriott New Delhi Aerocity enters its second decade, it remains committed to offering an unmatched experience of luxury, elegance, and unforgettable memories to its guests. It has firmly established itself as a leading luxury hotel, consistently delivering excellence over the past ten years.

Sterling Holiday Resorts has launched Sterling Ameris Kasauli, a boutique retreat nestled amidst pine-clad slopes and panoramic Shivalik views. Located along the scenic Dharampur–Kasauli Road, the resort invites travellers to slow down and rediscover mindful mountain living.
Once a colonial hamlet, Kasauli has grown into one of North India’s most loved escapes, where misty mornings, heritage trails, and a gentle pace of life blend seamlessly. Just a short drive from Chandigarh and Delhi NCR, Sterling Ameris Kasauli offers peace, wellness, and understated sophistication for travellers seeking a serene getaway.
The resort features Shivalik-facing rooms with private sit-outs, combining contemporary mountain chic with natural elegance. Warm palettes, handcrafted accents, and design simplicity mirror the quiet grace of its surroundings.
Dining at Valley View offers more than a meal, it’s a mindful experience. The pure-vegetarian menu features local classics like Siddu, Sepu Vadi, and Cholai Kheer, reinterpreted with modern sensibilities and served against panoramic mountain views. As evening falls, the terrace transforms into an open-air lounge, ideal for yoga, relaxation, or leisurely conversations.
As part of Sterling’s Discoveries & Experiences program, guests can explore Gilbert Trail, Manki Point, Christ Church, Sunset Point, or join guided pine walks to fully experience Kasauli’s charm.
Vikram Lalvani, Managing Director & CEO of Sterling Holiday Resorts, said, "Sterling Ameris Kasauli reflects our intent to grow with purpose, expanding into destinations that embody serenity, design, and discovery. Our ‘What a Trip’ curated circuits link destinations like Kasauli, Chail, Shimla, and Kufri into immersive travel experiences, shaping a soulful travel ecosystem across India."
Madhav Gupta, Director of Satvik Bliss Pvt. Ltd., added, "Our vision for Ameris Kasauli was to create a retreat that honours the land’s natural grace while offering guests refined simplicity. Partnering with Sterling was a natural choice, and together we hope to present Kasauli as a destination that stays with you long after you leave."
