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.

Clarion Collection to Rebrand as Home Hotel with a Fresh Concept

Clarion Collection to Rebrand as Home Hotel with a Fresh Concept

Published on January 17, 2025

Clarion Collection, part of the Nordic hotel chain and Strawberry brand, will rebrand to its original name, Home Hotel, on February 3, 2025. This marks a nostalgic return to its roots, as Home Hotel was initially founded in Sweden in 1983 by Jan Torgé and later acquired by Petter Stordalen in 1997.

The rebranding initiative introduces the “Home until you’re home” concept, designed to foster a sense of comfort, connection, and community for guests. As part of this transformation, the 54 properties across Sweden, Norway, and Finland will undergo renovations of guest rooms and common areas, enhancing both aesthetic appeal and functionality.

The move is inspired by a Novus survey revealing that 59% of participants value hotels that encourage social interaction, while nearly half expressed a desire to influence the food served. Reflecting these insights, Home Hotel will begin incorporating guest dinner suggestions into its menus by early 2025, further personalizing the dining experience.

Anna Spjuth, Brand Manager at Strawberry, emphasized:

"Home Hotel invites and welcomes guests into a warm and cosy environment where personal service and homeliness are at the forefront. In a time of increasing loneliness and anxiety, we see a growing need for spaces where people feel cared for and at home."

She added, "Our conversations with guests highlight the strong connection between food and a sense of home, which is why we want to include them in our tradition of gathering around the table. Perhaps we’ll see Johan’s favourite Tuesday pasta on the menu soon—and hopefully, this will foster new connections and conversations among our guests."

Home Hotel has always stood out for its unique properties, which include historic buildings or contemporary constructions with distinct names and personalized interiors. The rebranding also aligns with ongoing local initiatives, focusing on social sustainability and community engagement, further strengthening the brand’s connection to its roots.

The six-week transition to the Home Hotel brand is poised to redefine hospitality across the Nordic region, blending tradition, innovation, and guest-centric services.
