The Leela Palace

Withornate domes and arches, the Leela Palace is a grand hotel set in acres of lush land, making it both easily accessible and secluded enough, perfect for a relaxed getaway. If you want to make your stay extra special, pick a room to the Royal Club floor, where you get your own butler and access to the Library Bar. The hotel has its own little shopping centre, a good place to start your spree. Head into town, first to Vittal Mallya Road where the Embassy classic Building houses some of the country’s best fashion and lifestyle brands. CMH Road in indra Nagar has some spiffy stores, too. To shop like a local, check out Brigade Road or Commercial Street. On Brigade’s the handicrafts emporium is on nearby M.G. Road, and a lovely detour is Blossom Book Store on Church Street, Malls, like forum, Garuda and City Centre beckon, as do atmospheric boutique-cum-cafes, like Sanctuary on Hospital road.
