Marriott International has officially opened Le Meridien Ahmedabad, marking the brand’s debut in India’s first UNESCO World Heritage City through the transformation of Courtyard by Marriott. With 164 design-forward rooms and curated art installations, the hotel draws inspiration from mid-century modern aesthetics while paying homage to Ahmedabad’s textile heritage and architectural legacy.

Strategically located at the city’s heart, the hotel offers guests a sophisticated experience that blends global elegance with local culture. Interiors include azure-tinted glass pieces referencing the Sabarmati River and bespoke lobby art symbolising movement and life.

Culinary offerings span The Market for global cuisine with local accents, Java+ café with Illy coffee, Drift – a poolside lounge that transitions into evening dining, and Bayleaf – a refined Awadhi kitchen. The Le Scoop programme adds a fun touch with artisanal frozen treats. Guests can also enjoy a 20,000 sq. ft. event space, Explore Spa, fitness centre, and an outdoor pool.

Initiatives like Unlock Art, which offers access to Archer Art Gallery, and Family Passport, which curates interactive stays for families, reinforce the brand’s experiential approach. 

“Le Meridien Ahmedabad celebrates the city’s rich identity through thoughtful design, evocative cuisine, and curated experiences. This is a story waiting to be lived and shared,” said General Manager Prashant Chadha. Ranju Alex, Regional VP – South Asia, Marriott International, added, “We’re excited to bring Le Meridien to Ahmedabad, a perfect backdrop for our brand’s celebration of the good life through art, culture, and cuisine.”
