The Oberoi Grand
The
Oberoi Grand is
affectionately known as
the ‘Grande Dame of
Calcutta’. The Oberoi
Grand’s neo-classical
façade and grand
pillared entrance mark a
successful fusion of
classical and
traditional Indian style
and reflect the city’s
colonial heritage.
Located in Chowringhee,
the heart of Calcutta’s
commercial district and
shopping centre, the
hotel makes an
impressive, luxurious
and convenient base for
a business trip.
Cool green marble
floors, Corinthian
columns, balustrades,
classical pediments and
palms all add to an air
of turn-of-the-century
colonial grandeur. All
213 rooms and suites
convey the same sense of
space, elegance and
gracious living, while
providing every
convenience that the
modern traveller has
come to expect.
Impeccable Oberoi
standard service, fine
dining in Indian and
Thai speciality
restaurants, a world
class Banyan Tree spa,
state-of-the-art fitness
centre and 21st century
communications make the
Oberoi Grand the number
one hotel in Calcutta.
