The company stated these properties include the upcoming Anant Vilas Hotel in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), the Stoke Park in the UK, and another planned, unnamed hotel project in Gujarat. The company stated Anant Vilas Hotel in Mumbai has been developed as the first metro-centric property as part of the luxury ‘Vilas’ portfolio run by The Oberoi Group.

Anant Vilas is located in the business district of Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai, which is becoming a mixed-use destination with business, hospitality, shopping, F&B, arts and culture, educational and residential uses. Stoke Park Limited, a subsidiary of Reliance Industries, owns sports and leisure facilities in Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire. The facilities include a hotel, sports facilities, and one of the highest-rated golf courses in Europe.

Reliance Industries said The Oberoi Group will assist the company in terms of upgrading the facilities. The plans that will include a comprehensive upgrade of Stoke Park, including golf and other sports facilities, are under preparation. The company said the partnership also includes a new unnamed hotel project in Gujarat that is currently under implementation. Commenting further on the partnership, Reliance Industries said The Oberoi Group has an ‘unparalleled’ track record of providing ‘outstanding’ customer service in the hospitality industry and has several palaces and other historic properties in its portfolio that have been enhanced while preserving its character and vision.
