ITC ROYAL BENGAL, KOLKATA
May 2025 - Anniversary Special
|Architecture + Design
Evoking the timeless character of Kolkata's colonial past while embodying the best of contemporary hospitality, the ITC Royal Bengal is a monumental architectural statement
Kolkata's built environment is a testament to its storied past, showcasing a stunning array of architectural styles - from the soaring grandeur of Gothic and Baroque architecture to the intricate beauty of Indo-Saracenic and the sleek sophistication of Art Deco. When tasked with the responsibility of designing ITC Royal Bengal, a structure which would soon be identified as a modern monument, architect Gaurav Shah drew inspiration from Kolkata's venerable architectural heritage, seamlessly weaving timeless influences into a contemporary masterpiece. Set within the Salt Lake area of Kolkata, this 1.2 million sq. ft. LEED Platinum-certified luxury hotel seamlessly blends the typology of a modern five-star urban retreat with the poise of a palace.

#BEATTHEFIRE - WHAT YOU SPECIFY CAN DECIDE WHO SURVIVES
In moments of fire, there is no second chance. The materials you choose today determine whether a building protects lives tomorrow - or puts them at risk. In an age where speed of construction and visual appeal often overshadow safety, one critical truth must remain nonnegotiable: fire safety begins at the specification stage.
