Tivoli Hospitality Group is set to expand its presence in Chhatarpur, South Delhi, with the launch of Midori by Tivoli on November 13, 2026. Located in the same vicinity as its existing property, The Tivoli Hotel, the new luxury destination will feature premium accommodation, large banquet venues, landscaped outdoor spaces and leisure facilities.

Spread across approximately three acres, Midori has been designed to cater to the growing demand for destination-style weddings, social celebrations, MICE, corporate events and leisure stays across Delhi-NCR. The property will bring together event spaces, luxury rooms and personalised hospitality services, with a focus on offering a hotel-led approach to celebrations.

The launch is part of Tivoli's strategy to strengthen its position in the luxury leisure, accommodation and events segment. Chhatarpur offers a strategic location for this expansion, supported by its established wedding market, premium catchment across South Delhi, Gurugram and Noida, and connectivity through MG Road and the airport.

Commenting on the launch,  Akshay Gupta, Executive Director, Tivoli Hospitality Group, said, "Chhatarpur has emerged as one of Delhi-NCR's prominent luxury wedding and hospitality destinations. Our successful presence through The Tivoli Hotel has given us a strong understanding of the market's potential. With Midori, we are taking our presence forward through a distinctly different proposition.

It is also the vision of my father, Rohit Gupta, Chairman of Tivoli Hospitality Group, to continually build differentiated hospitality destinations that evolve with changing consumer expectations. Midori reflects that vision by bringing together luxury accommodation, expansive celebration spaces, leisure experiences and hotel-led services. Our aim is to create a destination that caters to the growing appetite for larger, more elaborate celebrations while offering guests a premium hospitality experience."

The property features two main event venues designed for celebrations of different scales. Avalon, spread across 15,000 sq. ft., is an indoor venue suited to weddings, receptions, social functions and corporate gatherings. The Glass House, spanning 27,000 sq. ft., includes a 19,000 sq. ft. landscaped lawn, bringing together indoor and outdoor spaces for large-scale celebrations.

Both venues feature triple-height ceilings, allowing space for elaborate décor, lighting concepts and event installations. The Glass House also offers climate-controlled interiors, enhanced acoustics, natural light and all-season functionality, making it suitable for different event formats.

Speaking about the property's design and event infrastructure, Mr Ishan Gupta, Director, Tivoli Hospitality Group, said, "We wanted Midori to offer more than conventional banquet infrastructure. Avalon and the Glass House have been designed with distinct architectural identities and celebration experiences. Avalon offers the grandeur of a premium indoor event space, while the Glass House brings together expansive indoor and outdoor settings. The triple-height ceilings and flexible layouts allow event planners to explore elaborate décor concepts, bespoke installations and large-format celebrations. We have also reimagined the glass-house format with climate-controlled interiors and all-season functionality, ensuring that aesthetics and practicality go hand in hand."

Midori will also feature premium rooms and bridal suites for wedding parties and leisure guests. While the property has been developed with a strong focus on celebrations, it will also cater to travellers looking for an upscale stay. Although located close to The Tivoli Hotel, Midori will operate as a distinct property with its own accommodation and event facilities.

Its architectural and interior design will follow a contemporary luxury approach, with clean lines, natural light, greenery, warm neutral tones and timeless detailing. The design aims to balance aesthetics and functionality while offering a comfortable setting for different occasions.

Food and beverage services will be an important part of the property's event offerings. Midori will provide dedicated catering arrangements, customised menus and curated culinary experiences for weddings, social celebrations and corporate gatherings. Rather than operating as a standalone restaurant destination, its food and beverage services will be integrated into the overall event experience.

Aryaman Gupta, Director, Tivoli Hospitality Group, added, "Today's wedding and events market is increasingly looking for destinations that deliver an integrated experience, from accommodation and food to event design and hospitality. Midori has been developed keeping these evolving expectations in mind. Our focus is on customised culinary experiences, flexible event formats and personalised services that can cater to everything from intimate social functions to elaborate weddings and corporate gatherings. We want to offer event organisers and guests the flexibility to create celebrations that reflect their individual preferences, supported by well-designed spaces and professional hospitality."

The launch of Midori by Tivoli marks another step in Tivoli Hospitality Group's expansion across North India. With 15 operational projects and another 10 in its development pipeline, the group continues to strengthen its presence in luxury hospitality, weddings, MICE and large-format celebrations. Scheduled to open on November 13, 2026, Midori by Tivoli will add another luxury hospitality destination to Chhatarpur's growing wedding and events market.
