The Leela Palace Bengaluru announces the launch of its Coffee Table Book

The Leela Palace Bengaluru has launched the Coffee Table Book, a heartfelt tribute to the hotel’s iconic 23-year journey. The unveiling of the book took place amongst a close-knit gathering of 60 key personalities of the city on Thursday, November 7th at their recently inaugurated Maharaja Ballroom.

This book is more than just a collection of images—it’s a celebration of the rich cultural tapestry of Bengaluru and Karnataka. With every page, it unfolds a captivating story of the city’s history, its architectural marvels, its art, its fabrics, furniture, ornaments, and even its flora and fauna. It’s a visual love letter to a land that has inspired so much of what The Leela Palace Bengaluru stands for.

This ethos of highlighting the destination of the hotel, is woven into every corner creating a profound connection to the land. The hotel's design, inspired by the grandeur of the Vijayanagara Empire, echoes the regal splendour of the Mysore Palace. The architecture, the decor, the art, and even the fabrics speak of a royal heritage—once the privilege of blue-blooded aristocracy.

In its pages, the book unveiled untold stories from a bygone era, inviting readers to immerse themselves in the history that surrounds the hotel. The Palace Tour, a guided journey through the hotel, offers guests a sensorial experience where sculptures, paintings, and artefacts are steeped in antiquity—each one a living testament to a royal past.

The Coffee Table Book is a dedication and tribute to the beautiful city of Bengaluru. Through this book, we preserve the hotel’s timeless legacy and share its graceful heritage with guests. We hope that this Coffee Table Book is donned as a centrepiece in the living room at home, for generations to come.
