The project was awarded to KIHPL through a competitive government bid under Bihar’s tourism development initiatives, with ITC Hotels finalised as the operator. The property will offer world-class amenities, meeting facilities, and curated experiences that reflect the cultural and heritage ethos of the region.
Speaking on the announcement, Anil Chadha, Managing Director of ITC Hotels, said, "It shall be a privilege to showcase our iconic culinary and service excellence in Bihar through this ITC Luxury Hotel. Our luxury properties epitomize the culture and ethos of each destination offering indigenous experiences while celebrating the rich heritage of the region through distinctive architecture, arts, crafts & rituals."
Manish Kumar, Director of KIHPL, added, "We are excited and honoured to have entered into management agreements with ITC Hotels for a new luxury hotel in Patna. It is a matter of pride for us to develop this project with the vision of Bihar Government to strengthen the commercial and cultural identity of Patna. We look forward to our association with ITC Hotels to develop an iconic luxury project to elevate the tourism potential and hospitality landscape of Bihar."
The upcoming ITC Hotel in Patna is expected to attract both business and leisure travellers, contributing to the growth of the state’s hospitality sector while offering guests a luxury experience that highlights the city’s culture and charm.
The Leela Palace Jaipur has transformed its iconic restaurant, Mohan Mahal, into Jamavar, its signature Indian fine-dining concept. This marks a new chapter in the city’s culinary scene, blending culture, craftsmanship, and True Indian Luxury.
Jamavar, already celebrated at The Leela Palace New Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru, now arrives in Jaipur, bringing a refined approach to royal Indian gastronomy. The restaurant’s name is inspired by the sixteenth-century Jamavar shawls of Kashmir, symbolizing elegance and intricate artistry, a philosophy reflected in both the design and cuisine.
While retaining the architectural splendor of Mohan Mahal, including 3,50,000 hand-cut Thikri mirrors and 18-carat gold-leaf work, Jamavar introduces a refreshed identity combining heritage with contemporary finesse. Guests can enjoy live instrumental performances each evening, evoking the grandeur of Rajasthan’s royal courts.
The menu highlights signature dishes like Gucchi Mutter Masala, Kofta-e-Jamavar, Dal-e-Jamavar, and Gosht ki Galouti, alongside Rajasthani specialties. Ingredients are locally sourced, and each dish is crafted with artistry, inspired by Parchinkari, the Mughal inlay craft known for meticulous detail.
Guests are welcomed with a symbolic handwash ritual, drawing from 16th-century royal dining traditions, setting a respectful and ceremonial tone for the meal. Further enhancing the experience, Jamavar Jaipur is led by an all-women service team, reflecting The Leela’s commitment to gracious hospitality and gender diversity. A narrative-driven beverage program complements the cuisine with heritage recipes, mixology, fine wines, cocktails, and spirits.
Commenting on the launch, Anoop Pandey, Vice President & General Manager, The Leela Palace Jaipur, said, "Mohan Mahal has always been a cherished icon, not only for The Leela but also for Jaipur’s dining landscape. Its transformation into Jamavar is both a tribute to its legacy and a continuation of our vision to set new benchmarks in Indian fine dining. With this, we extend the Jamavar legacy to Rajasthan, curating an experience where every dish and every detail embodies palace-worthy refinement and the soul of True Indian Luxury."
With Jamavar Jaipur, The Leela strengthens its presence in Rajasthan’s culinary landscape, offering discerning guests an immersive, memorable dining experience. This launch is part of a broader evolution in the property’s F&B offerings, with further experiences set to redefine Jaipur’s fine-dining scene in the coming months.
