URBAN RETREAT

Sitting in my private balcony, sipping a kulhad chai, looking at the setting sun at Aravali hills with a slight breeze sway-ing the trees and forming little ripples in the blue pool, I could feel all the pleasures of the world packed here. This is how I was making the most of my Friday evening at Courtyard by MarriottAravali Resort, all set to celebrate Lohri. Located in the thriving cosmopolitan area of Delhi NCR, the resort is a perfect quick weekend getaway for people looking for some time away with their friends and family.

The 158-room hotel spreads across eight acres and provides a sophisticated yet comfortable environment for you. I was greeted with a mala along with a refreshing and lightly spiced buttermilk (masala chaas) in a kulhad. How authentic! As soon as you enter, the lobby takes your breath away….exquisite interiors, wide open spaces and plenty of natural light! You can see the uniquely tiered swimming pool from the reception itself. It is beautifully landscaped with lounge sofas, making it even more inviting.

Upon entering my room, I was greeted with a cute decoration on my bed and little delicacies kept alongside the exciting itinerary for the weekend. As soon as I opened my curtains, I was delighted how spacious my private balcony was! Moreover, it overlooked the stunning pool with a backdrop of hills. If you are travelling with your kids, you need to check out their Family Suite. Distinguishing itself is their Family Suite with bunk beds for kids – an already much-raved and unique amenity kids can enjoy.
