Marriott International has expanded its brand in Bengaluru, India, with the opening of the first dual branded property in the country – the Courtyard by Marriott and the Fairfield by Marriott. Located on the Outer Ring Road, the new complex offers corporate travellers easy access to the commercial hub for the city’s leading IT companies.

“The business community in South Asia, specifically in India, is growing at an unprecedented rate and this community is looking at lodging options that combines options, comfort and value,” says Craig S. Smith, president and managing director of Marriott International, Asia Pacific. “To cater to this demand, Marriott International now offers this new property that delivers two different experiences under one roof. We are committed to providing great value to our customers and the opening of our first dual branded complex in India is one of the important steps towards achieving this goal.”

Courtyard by Marriott Bengaluru Outer Ring Road features 170 rooms, including 134 deluxe, 24 executive deluxe rooms and 12 suites, and a chic all-day dining restaurant, MoMo Café, which offers fresh ingredients and international flavours. For business travellers on the go, the MoMo 2 Go offers take-away pastries and savories; while the Lobby Bar provides refreshing after-hour tipples.

Fairfield by Marriott Bengaluru Outer Ring Road comprises 169 guest rooms, including 115 deluxe rooms and 54 deluxe pool view rooms. The all-day dining restaurant Kava serves sumptuous Indian and International cuisines; while Kava The Bar, a modern mood bar and lounge, offers freshly brewed coffee by day and interesting cocktails by evening.

Apart from the individual facilities offered by the two hotels, Courtyard by Marriott and Fairfield by Marriott together bring to guests a luxurious Mediterranean restaurant, BG’s, offering a magnificent spread of Mediterranean cuisine. Guests staying at both hotels can also have access to a common fitness center, meeting rooms and a swimming pool. www.marriott.com
