Westin Hotels & Resorts, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of 30 hotel brands, continues to propel its footprint in India with the opening of The Westin Mumbai Powai Lake. Embracing the brand’s foundational pillars of Eat Well, Move Well and Sleep Well, the hotel features signature brand programs that empower guest to regain control and maintain their holistic well-being while they are on the road.
Set on the scenic shore of Lake Powai in Mumbai, the hotel features 600 guestrooms with spectacular views of the Hiranandani skyline overlooking the tranquil waters of the lake. Well-being meets style as The Westin Mumbai Powai Lake’s design philosophy takes inspiration from the concept of Biophilia, which posits that people have an innate need to connect with nature, and that our link to the natural world affects our well-being.
“We are excited to bring the second Westin hotel to Mumbai. With an increasing demand for wellness travel, the opening of The Westin Mumbai Powai Lake will further expand our portfolio in South Asia, offering industry-leading well-being experiences designed to empower a better you,” said Jennie Toh, Vice President, Brand Marketing and Brand Management, Marriott International Asia Pacific. “The hotel is committed to delivering the wellness promise that the brand is known for, giving travellers and locals new ways to experience this iconic destination.”
The hotel experience comes to life through the brand’s six pillars of well-being – Sleep Well, Eat Well, Move Well, Feel Well, Work Well, and Play Well – allowing guests to personalize their stay and engage in programming that meets their needs. Guests can enjoy brand signatures such as refreshing amenities including White Tea Aloe Heavenly Bath products and Sleep Well Lavender Balm to promote a revitalizing rest. The state-of-the-art WestinWORKOUT Fitness Studio offers world class equipment, overlooking the breath-taking views of the Powai Lake. The outdoor pool offers the perfect complement to any workout. As a part of the Move Well program, our Run Concierge anticipates guest’s wellness routines and ensures that individuals maintain their workout regimens while travelling as well. To translate this on ground, the hotel has a 2km scenic track across 15 acres of lush greenery around the Powai Lake helping guests physically unwind.
