| Each room is of course fitted with the latest technologies and entertainment systems. Cable television channels can be found on the flat screen televisions found in each room, as are dual line telephones equipped with voicemail and speakerphones. Every room also offers a great view, whether it is the ideal view for the people watcher, looking over the pool, or sweeping panoramas of the city skyline. |
| A special initiative in which guests can take part in at the Gateway hotel, and which highlights this Bangalore hotel above the rest are the hotel's "green rooms" which form part of their Earth initiative. As a motion towards sustainability and being more environmentally friendly, choosing these specially designed rooms means that guests will be contributing to saving energy and recycling. |
| Small but noticeable touches such as the replacement of the refrigerated mini bar with a snack bar, to the use of presence of a live potted plant instead of cut flowers on arrival means that by opting for these characteristic rooms, you are simultaneously helping the plight towards a more sustainable industry and lifestyle. |
| Another great characteristic of the Gateway Hotel is the fact that its kitchens never shut. This means that should guests fancy a bit to eat late into the evening, their desires can be met. This hotel focuses quite intently on the use of local flavor and traditions in its menus and restaurants. Taking advantage of the local flavors, natural ingredients and regional cooking methods, the several dining options all ensure that dining with them is an adventure as opposed to just a necessity. |
| While "Stir" is a great venue in which to enjoy al fresco dining and the 24 hour service, the prized restaurant is the "Karavalli" which has received a number of awards and been mentioned in several well-known world food guides. Imagine combinations of coconut, curry spices and chillis, all being used creatively to construct some wildly incredible meals. Any dining experience can then be topped off with a visit to the stylish Lobby Lounge Bar, where guests can mingle, relax and enjoy some refreshing cocktails and beverages. |
| Entertainment is certainly something the hosts at the Gateway hotel understand, and apart from their superb wining and dining venues, their events and banqueting amenities and venues are a testimony to this approach. Since the hotel is located amidst many of Bangalore's better known entertainment and business areas, holding an event at the Gateway Hotel is not only very chic, but wonderfully convenient. The hotel has five banquet halls alone, and over and above this offer several trendy poolside or outdoor lawn options. |
| The banquet halls vary in size from the intimate "Council room" which is perfect for board meetings and interviews, to the grand "Gardenside Hall" which adjoins both the garden verandah and the lush green lawns. This splendid venue can accommodate up to 500 people for dramatic yet fresh cocktail parties or launches. And of course "Tipu's Chamber" cannot go unmentioned. This hall exuded royal splendor through its raw silk paneling, and chandeliers that glint and sparkle above heads. Accommodating less people, it allows for slightly more intimate gatherings, draped in class and charisma. |
| These venues are obviously also available for conferences or conventions, which suggests the hotel has a host of facilities available for business guests hosting events, or just for those visiting Bangalore for international business. Some of these facilities include secretarial services, courier services, and great workstations boasting state of the art computers with all the software necessary to perform everyday business tasks. |
| For the more active guest, the hotel also provides a hi-tech fitness centre and a beautiful aquamarine outdoor swimming pool. Topping this off is a stunning spa where guests can be treated to many treatments, ranging in origin from the east to the west. |
| The Gateway Hotel is a fine example of hospitality in the heart of India's Garden city. A combination of the charm of this Garden city, exemplified in the outdoor dining and taste sensations, and contemporary world-class style, witnessed in the high trendiness of the venues, bedrooms and appearance of the entire hotel ensures that guests are treated to a hotel stay worth every penny, and sure to inspire many wonderful memories. |
| For a true taste of modern-day Bangalore, simultaneously the Garden City and IT city, the Gateway Hotel should be any travelers first and most obvious choice. |
