Bengaluru, South India, India

The Leela Palace Bengaluru is an impressive modern hotel in India’s garden city and within walking distance of the financial and shopping districts. There are 357 spacious rooms and suites to choose from, each furnished in stylish neutral colours. We love the Conservatory Rooms that overlook the gardens with its cascading waterfalls. Guests in the Royal Club Rooms and Suites benefit from a dedicated butler service and access to the amenities of the Club Lounge.

Start your day with a morning yoga session, a stroll through the gardens or a refreshing dip in the swimming pool.  There is an impressive gym with personal trainers and Ayurvedic and holistic treatments are available in the ESPA.

As you would expect from a hotel of this size, when it comes to dining there are plenty of options to whet your appetite. Le Cirque Signature restaurant offers Franco-Italian fine dining under its impressive Murano glass chandelier.  Sample the best of Korean, Japanese and Thai cuisine at Zen or, if you prefer something more informal, the wood-fired pizzas at Citrus, the all-day diner are well worth trying.
