Oberoi New Delhi checks in, again

The Oberoi Group today announced the reopening of its flagship property in the capital - The Oberoi, New Delhi - after keeping it closed for renovation since April 1, 2016.
A multi-million dollar transformation of the 220-room hotel was directed by designer Adam D Tihany, who took Edward Lutyens' modernist vision as his inspiration, Oberoi Group said in a statement.
The renovation was expected to take two years but was completed three months ahead of schedule, it added.
Oberoi Group Executive Chairman P R S Oberoi termed it a significant moment for the Group.
"When my late father Rai Bahadur M S Oberoi opened the hotel in the autumn of 1965, he wished it to be the most modern luxury hotel. I am confident that The Oberoi, New Delhi will continue this tradition," he said.

Founded in 1934, the Oberoi Group operates 32 five star hotels, two Nile cruisers and a motor vessel in the backwaters of Kerala under the luxury 'Oberoi' and five-star 'Trident' brands in several countries.
The Group is also engaged in flight catering, managing airport restaurants, travel and tour services, car rentals, project management and corporate air charters.
