Sterling Holiday Resorts has launched a new landmark in Dehradun: Sterling Marbella Dehradun, the city's first-ever Spanish-themed hotel. Located on the bustling Rajpur Road, this unique hotel blends Spanish elegance with Indian hospitality, making it a standout destination in the Himalayan foothills.
Inspired by Spain's vibrant culture and distinctive Moorish architecture, Sterling Marbella Dehradun features 500 pieces of art, including paintings, photographs, and sculptures, that adorn its walls and ceilings. The hotel offers 37 European-styled rooms and suites, designed to provide an authentic Andalusian experience. These accommodations cater to families, solo travelers, and business guests, offering stylish interiors and modern amenities.
A highlight of the hotel is its rooftop venue, Dreamers Restro. This dynamic space is perfect for private events and nightlife, offering both indoor and outdoor seating. Dreamers Restro serves an eclectic menu featuring Indian favorites and Spanish specialties like paella, tapas, tortilla, gazpachos, and sangrias. Guests can enjoy these delicacies while listening to live music and soaking in the pleasant Dehradun weather.
Sterling Marbella Dehradun also offers versatile banquet facilities, including an indoor boardroom that can accommodate up to 16 guests and an outdoor rooftop terrace for up to 75 guests. These spaces are ideal for intimate celebrations, private meetings, and business events.
Mr. Vikram Lalvani, Managing Director and CEO of Sterling Holiday Resorts, expressed his enthusiasm about the launch, stating, "Sterling Marbella Dehradun perfectly blends Indian hospitality with a Spanish-themed ambiance. Dehradun serves as a pivotal entry point to Uttarakhand, offering a harmonious blend of leisure and business travel between Haridwar, Mussoorie, and Rishikesh."
Inderjeet Singh and Komalbir Singh, Founding Partners of Marbella Hotel & Resorts, LLP, shared their vision for the hotel, saying, "We aimed to bring the essence of Spain to our hometown. By immersing ourselves in the architecture and culture of Marbella in southern Spain, we have infused our hotel with the same style, creating an iconic destination that promises guests unique cultural and culinary experiences."
Guests at Sterling Marbella Dehradun can explore a variety of local attractions and activities. Highlights include the Tapkeshwar Mahadev Temple, Robbers Cave, paragliding adventures, the Mindrolling Monastery, and vibrant shopping along Rajpur Road. The hotel's central location also serves as an excellent starting point for visiting other Sterling resorts in Uttarakhand, such as those in Mussoorie, Rishikesh, and Haridwar.

Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai has officially unveiled visuals of its newly launched 10,000-square-foot ballroom, a landmark addition that sets a new benchmark for luxury celebrations in the city. Located in Worli, one of Mumbai’s most vibrant cultural and social districts, the ballroom has been conceptualised as a refined spatial experience rather than a traditional banqueting hall. Designed to feel expansive yet intimate, the venue seamlessly balances scale, proportion, and meticulous detailing.
Opened on 29th January 2026, the pillarless ballroom brings together architectural elegance, cutting-edge technology, and the signature personalised service synonymous with the Four Seasons brand. A private arrival porch and dedicated entrance establish a sense of exclusivity from the outset, leading guests into a 1,300-square-foot pre-function area ideal for welcome rituals, cocktail receptions, and elegant mingling.
The heart of the venue is a 5,700-square-foot uninterrupted main hall with soaring ceilings and clear sightlines, offering remarkable flexibility for weddings, milestone celebrations, social soirées, fashion showcases, automobile launches, and corporate galas. Integrated LED panelling across an entire wall, advanced audiovisual systems, and adaptable lighting allow the space to transition effortlessly from sunlit daytime ceremonies to immersive evening celebrations.
The ballroom’s design palette blends deep blues with nuanced gold accents and luminous whites, creating a setting that feels both contemporary and timeless. Subtle spherical motifs and bespoke finishes introduce warmth and architectural rhythm, while a live kitchen concept, anchored by a dedicated local maharaj, ensures that culinary artistry remains central to every occasion.
Speaking on the unveiling, Nitesh Gandhi, General Manager, Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai, said, “At Four Seasons, we believe celebrations should feel deeply personal and effortlessly grand. This ballroom has been crafted to honour life’s most meaningful milestones, where every wedding vow, every toast, and every gathering is elevated by design, service, and heartfelt attention.”
In keeping with the hotel’s commitment to conscious luxury, sustainability is thoughtfully woven into the ballroom’s offerings. These include locally sourced menus, collaborations with eco-luxe décor partners, and a zero-waste culinary philosophy that balances indulgence with responsibility.
The newly released imagery highlights the ballroom’s grandeur, design nuances, and immersive atmosphere, offering a compelling preview of what awaits. Now open, the ballroom at Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai positions itself as one of the city’s most coveted event destinations, where impeccable service, architectural sophistication, and thoughtful personalisation come together to create celebrations that are not just hosted, but exquisitely experienced.

Cygnett Hotels & Resorts has announced the signing of Cozzet Amritsar, marking a strategic expansion of its value-driven brand in Punjab’s thriving hospitality market.
The upcoming 54-key property will strengthen the group’s presence in one of North India’s most resilient tourism and commercial hubs, Amritsar.
Cozzet Amritsar will feature 54 well-appointed rooms, an all-day dining restaurant and a banquet facility equipped with modern technology, capable of hosting up to 500 guests.
The hotel is located approximately 20 minutes from the iconic Golden Temple and about 30 minutes from Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport. Its proximity to religious landmarks, retail districts and commercial zones positions it to cater to a balanced mix of pilgrimage, leisure, wedding and corporate demand.
Amritsar continues to record strong year-round footfall, driven by domestic and international visitors. Improved road infrastructure and enhanced airport connectivity have further strengthened demand across the midscale and upper-midscale hotel segments.
Cozzet Hotels are designed around a simple promise, clean rooms, quality food, reliable service and essential comforts such as Wi-Fi, gym access and hot showers, all at smart price points. Each property reflects a distinct local identity while maintaining consistent service standards.
Cozzet Amritsar will target value-conscious travellers seeking comfort, efficiency and dependable hospitality without compromising on experience.
Commenting on the signing, Sarbendra Sarkar, Founder and Managing Director, Cygnett Hotels & Resorts, said, “Amritsar is a high-performing hospitality market with strong year-round demand across pilgrimage, leisure and social events. With Cozzet Amritsar, we are strengthening our presence in Punjab by offering a product that balances comfort, efficiency and value. The city's improving infrastructure and expanding commercial activity make it a compelling long-term market for organised hospitality brands.”
The addition of Cozzet Amritsar aligns with Cygnett’s asset-light expansion strategy focused on high-growth secondary cities with strong demand fundamentals and limited organised supply.
Beyond the Golden Temple, the hotel’s location also offers convenient access to the Wagah Border, the War & Partition Museum and Amritsar’s bustling shopping streets, making it an attractive base for both business and leisure travellers.
With this signing, Cygnett continues to deepen its presence in North India, tapping into markets where tourism, weddings and corporate travel converge to drive sustained hospitality growth.
