The Den - Luxury hotel for globetrotters


It's tough enough to get to No.1 and even harder to stay there. With the launch of the state of the art luxury hotel, The DEN Hotel in Bangalore is well on course to achieve it. I attended the launch party and experienced their excellent hospitality. 
Here's a photo tour...


With 226 rooms, suites, facilities and delicious dining options, The Den is positioned as a state-of-the-art luxury hotel for the millennials and globetrotters around the context of "Eat.Work.Sleep.Play". Located close to ITPB, the IT hub of Bangalore, it provides a quiet efficiency for the business travelers as well as destination connoisseurs... 


The lovely welcome drink, a cocktail of basil and orange came with a beautiful presentation...


We gathered for the introduction...


Speaking at the launch, Vinesh Gupta, General Manager, The Den said, " The Den prides itself as being a cultural touchstone that provides state-of-the-art facilities. Our aim is to offer our guests a unique blend of modern and traditional aesthetics"...


The tasteful nibbles raised the expectations for the lunch program... 















The small eats whetted our appetite. We headed to The Creek, a casual and high-energy, round the clock dining restaurant that serves Indian and world cuisines...



Nice ambiance, comfortable seating...


Gado Gado salad is a tale of simple taste and nutrition...



Beef roulade...

My main course picks were dominated by the melt in the mouth pork chops glazed with honey...

Brownie...

Mango berry slice...


Nutty Potli...



My dessert picks were dominated by Vanilla panna cotta and fruits... 


A detox sherbert after all the indulgence...



Now, let us take a walk around the property and look at some of the world class facilities...


Play House is a cosy place for relaxation...


A range of electronic games will help you unwind...


The Arena is a an auditorium with 70 seats...


The 226 rooms are meticulously designed and categorized into Corner rooms, Club rooms, Den rooms and Studio rooms. Each room features latest in-room technologies...


Large open bathroom with sliding doors...


Each room is equipped with a 49 inch smart screen...


I liked the chest...


The lush amphitheater for outdoor parties and events... 





The lounge...


Head to The Sanctuary for a Spa and gym experience... 


The Cave is a 15 seater cinema hall which offers a curated selection of movies...


The outdoor swimming pool is a black bottom pool which gets warmed easily by the sun and also feels deeper and cooler... 


I came out of the Den, really impressed. The facilities are top notch, the service is seamless without being obsequious, the atmosphere is civilized, and the dining options are tantalizing. 
Well worth the pennies!
