The hotel forms part of the wider Oberoi Garden City development, sitting alongside the mall, private members’ club and surrounding residential neighbourhood.

A—NY was commissioned to develop the concept design, establishing the architectural character of the hotel and its relationship with the wider site. A slender glass tower rises above a lower hospitality podium, with shifts in the façade breaking down its scale and creating opportunities for planted terraces and outdoor space.

At the lower levels, stone, timber screens and deep planting give the building a warmer, more tactile character, allowing it to meet the landscape at a more human scale. The hotel is conceived as part of the wider sequence of gardens, streets and destinations that make up Oberoi Garden City, rather than as a standalone tower.
