JULY - SEPTEMBER 2010

Dear Guest,

Northern India has experienced one of its worst summer in these past few

months with an unprecedented rise in temperature. Those of you on vacation

were lucky to have skipped this heat wave. Now, with monsoon round the corner

we hope to get some respite from the heat.

With everyone back in the city from their holidays, refreshed and rejuvenated, The

Claridges Hotel Group unfurls a slew of new facilities for guests this season.

Dhaba, the signature North Indian restaurant at The Claridges, New Delhi is

opening in the first week of July at The Claridges, Surajkund, Delhi, NCR. This will

be followed by The Claridges Spa, in early August. The luxurious spa spread over

15,500 sq ft with 10 treatment rooms, spa suite, salon, state-of-the-art

gymnasium and international therapists promises an unparalleled experience.

The team at The Claridges, Surajkund, Delhi, NCR looks forward to welcoming you

to experience these new additions in their bouquet of facilities.

At The Claridges, New Delhi, Sevilla, the multiple award winning Mediterranean

restaurant will open with a fresh new look soon. The Health Club, guest rooms and

The Claridges Garden have also been refurbished.

Our boutique hotel up in the hills, The Claridges Nabha Residence, Mussoorie is

scheduled to go for renovation at the end of the year. Work on mock up room is in

progress currently.

I hope to see you at our Hotels as always and look forward to your feedback and

suggestions on the new facilities and services to help us serve you better.

Warm regards,

Peter J. Leitgeb

BEER & BALTI CUISINE

July

The month of July is dedicated to the Balti cuisine which

originated from the Northern Pakistan region of Baltistan.

The Balti people were nomads who developed a cooking

technique that was simple and involved just one small pot,

commonly known as Balti. Here at Dhaba we bring a few

specialties of this cuisine served in the contemporary

miniature 'balti' accompanied by Daal Dhaba, Indian breads

and chilled beer.

DHABA TRUCK GOES COASTAL
