the Mumbai suburb of Goregaon. This marks the entry of the Westin Hotels & Resorts owned by US-based Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc to Mumbai.
The Westin Mumbai Garden City will constitute the hotel component of Commerz, a mixed use commercial tower. It is located off the Western Express Highway at Goregaon (East). As one of the first five star hotels in this area, it is also expected to cater to the 80 acres of the integrated township of Oberoi Garden City. This business hotel will occupy multi levels of the 32 storey tower and would be operational for business in 2009.
Commenting on the potential of a star hotel in the western suburbs, Oberoi said, “There has been a gradual shift of commercial activity to the western suburbs with well connected infrastructure and modern housing facilities. In view of this, we foresee a big demand for five star hospitality services in the area. Besides, Oberoi Garden City will house leading multinational companies, which will directly benefit.”
Commerz will manage the commercial space and the hotel through separate entrances. The hotel and commercial floors will have a separate set of lifts. The ground level of the tower will house a restaurant as well as banquet rooms. The 18th floor will house the rest of the restaurants and a bar with an atrium that opens right up from the 18th floor to the 32nd floor. The 269 room hotel will be located from the 19th to the 32nd floors. The hotel will also feature a Westin Heavenly Spa, Westin WORKOUT and a business center.
