Harking back to the royal heritage of the Vijaynagar Dynasty, the 358-room hotel showcases gold-leaf domes, ornate ceilings and grand arches. It effortlessly combines the traditional past of Bangalore with the technological present. Liberally sprinkled with both business essentials and creature comforts, it is conveniently close to both Bangalore's business districts and its golfing greens. Guests are welcomed into the foyer by a 24-hour reception service, and are offered use of a hotel safe, room and laundry services, and currency exchange facilities. Other features of the hotel include conference facilities, Internet access (for a fee), parking for guests arriving by car, a hairdresser, and excellent bars and restaurants. The Lobby is large with chandiliers. There are ample corners which have seating areas where one can comfortably conduct busniess.

The hotel is located on Airport Road, in close proximity to business, shopping, and cultural centres. It is adjacent to the KGA Golf Course, and a 30 minute drive from the business districts of Whitefield and Electronic City. M.G. Road, the arterial road of Bangalore, famous for its opportunities for both business and recreational activities is just 5 km away. Bangalore Airport lies a mere 3 km away, and the central train station is 10 km from the hotel's front door.

The hotel's two eateries offer diverse cuisines. The Citrus offers the freshest salads, perfect pastas, risottos and freshly-made pizzas in the own wood-fired oven. Jamavar serves the cuisine of Northern India - succulent kebabs and fragrant biryanis - while Southern Indian cuisine is represented by some delectable curries.
