Celebrating a milestone

And in what seems the first-of-its-kind event, five of the resorts of the group were rated in the top 15 in the readers’ choice survey. It was definitely a great honour to say the least and a great occasion to celebrate.  In the survey, the Best Hotel of the World 2010 Award was given to The Oberoi Vanyavilas, Ranthambhore and the rest to join it were The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra, The Oberoi Rajvilas, Jaipur and The Oberoi Udaivilas, Udaipur. A truly proud moment for the hospitality chain as well as the industry, the evening was organised to celebrate this milestone with the people in the City.

The event saw all the old patrons of the group coming together to add in the joy to the achievement and also to meet old friends. And everyone seemed to enjoy themselves in this breezy evening affair.

A small video presentation gave the guests a look into the luxuries of the Vanyavilas, which had managed to achieve this honour and everyone seemed to agree that it was well-deserved. “It is great to know that five of the best hotels in the world are present in our country. It is a great achievement for the group,” said Prerna, one of the guests. But glory set aside, it was all about having a good time and it was made sure that everyone did so. The music was enchanting, a mixture of soft country tones and jazz, it provided just the right kick to set the evening’s pace.

The fine food was enjoyed thoroughly by the guests. A good mix of young and old, the crowd were all well acquainted with the place and the evening ended in a good note.
