Heritage with High Tea
Turning a large vat used for kneading dough into a planter, using a steam-iron as a flower vase, or carving out a private dining hall from a large walk-in oven may seem like a wonderful reuse of old objects or space. But in Kolkata’s Lalit Great Eastern Hotel they evoke memories of another time.
About The LaLiT Hotels

Rapid expansion and consolidation of its leadership position continues under the enterprising stewardship of Dr. Jyotsna Suri, who took over as Chairperson & Managing Director in 2006.
