Royal Club Lounge Le Meridien Bangalore

 

Royal Club Lounge

 

As one of the city's leading business hotels, Le Méridien provides six convention halls and two boardrooms for meetings and conferences. The Royal Club Lounge fits the bill for smaller meetings, interviews, discussions and briefings. Le Méridien offers extremely tasteful banquet halls, banquet options and facilities for business conventions, weddings, celebrations or cosy get-togethers.

Lost for Food?

Le Méridien offers extremely tasteful banquet halls, banquet options and facilities for business conventions, weddings, celebrations or cosy get-togethers. Led by one of the city's finest chefs Vijaya Baskaran, Executive Chef and F & B Manager, the hotel offers several dining options be it for fine dining, a power lunch or a quick snack. The food here shows the rich legacy of Indian culinary history enriched continuously by Mughal, Persian, Chinese, Mongolian, Turkish, British and Portuguese influences, and contemporary international trends. All of which make for a sumptuous and mouth-watering spread. Its most recent addition is Jashn, which offers an experience with a difference. Jashn starts off at an upper level overlooking the wide aquamarine pool, tarries under a high ceilinged sit-out and winds all the way down to the inviting waterside. Lush greenery drapes the surroundings in a soothing hue and come night, twinkling lights add a fairyland ambience. Sipping on a cocktail or two is sure to get the juices flowing; there is plenty of action here at this North West Frontier restaurant as chefs toss up succulent tandooris and aromatic curries in the open kitchen.

 

La Brasserie, Le Meridien Bangalore

 

La Brasserie

 

Just off the lobby, is the La Brasserie, the 24 hour multi-cuisine restaurant. With an open and cosy feel, it serves a superb a la carte menu with Indian, continental and pan-Asian delicacies, and spreads out lavish buffets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. A live band with an eclectic repertoire livens up the evenings. For those with a sweet tooth, a must stop is the legendary La Boulangerie which tempts you with an array of pastries, chocolates and confectionery.

Relaxing Through the Sunset

Le Meridien Pool Bangalore

 

With all the good food inside you, you might think of using the well-equipped health club. A brisk workout at the fitness centre, a few laps in the temperature controlled pool, a soothing massage or a hydrotherapy session in the sauna or the jacuzzi is the perfect way to unwind at the end of a tiring day. You could opt for a session of beauty at the salon or take time off for a sporting encounter of golf, bowling and tennis. In a city that is seen as one of the technology hubs in the country, Le Méridien is a premium player in a sector that is slated for unprecedented growth.
