Both the hotels have been designed to meet the needs of business as well as leisure travelers, offering them a welcoming environment and a comfortable stay.

“It gives me immense pleasure and pride to announce our partnership with one of the largest hotel companies in the world having 4,200 hotels in more than 100 countries. Our association with Best Western Hotels & Resorts shall ensure that quality services and experience are provided to our customers, who are mostly foreigners,” said Mr. Piyush Nagrath, Director – Blue Mango Hotels. “That our hotel is the first to bring in an international brand shall definitely change the hospitality trend in this location. I am sure more international brands will follow in the near future,” he added.

Best Western Plus Central will feature 71 well-appointed rooms, including rooms with a private balcony for large families or small groups, a multi-purpose hall, health club and three F&B outlets. Guests can cool off in the outdoor Jacuzzi, enjoy sumptuous kebabs at the terrace Barbeque that offers a pleasant view of the old city and the distant high rise buildings of Connaught Place, or unwind over a book and coffee at the “Deli Café” and relish the delectable international cuisine in the multi-cuisine restaurant.
