775-room hotel set to transform Bengaluru Airport City

Bengaluru Airport City, which is all set to be transformed as the Bengaluru Airport City Limited (BACL), on Friday unveiled investment plans for a two million square feet business park, concert arena and 775-room hotel near the Kempegowda International Airport. BACL is the subsidiary wholly owned by the Bangalore International Airport Limited, which operates the KIA. In a statement, the BACL said that in a positive stride towards sustainability and technological innovation, the biophilic-inspired business park promises smart workspaces within a vibrant public realm.

Seamlessly blending work and play, the development aims to cater to the diverse needs of businesses and employees, offering a dynamic environment for growth and collaboration, it said. According to them, the project's most exceptional and breathtaking attribute lies in the Urban Forest, a lush oasis in the centre of the development. This green space will serve as a focal point, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the area. The upcoming Metro station in Airport City will provide seamless connectivity to the business park from the northern side, ensuring convenient accessibility. "This investment by BACL will propel our vision of transforming the Airport City into a bustling hub for businesses, knowledge-intensive zones, R&D centres and Global Capability Centres. With world-class infrastructure and a focus on sustainability, our goal is to create a thriving environment that nurtures growth, brings in job opportunities and makes a positive socio-economic impact on the region," Rao Munukutla, CEO of BACL said.

The transformative journey continues with the expansion of the hospitality and entertainment offerings within the Airport City. The business park will be accompanied by a Combo Hotel and a concert arena, it said. The BACL stated that Combo Hotel is poised to become one of the largest hospitality establishments in India.
