Marriott to Open South Asia’s Largest Courtyard Hotel in Bengaluru with 350 Rooms by 2030

Marriott International has signed an agreement with Vedant Enterprises to develop a 350-key Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Bengaluru, marking the brand’s largest property in South Asia. The hotel, named Courtyard by Marriott Bengaluru Hi-Tech Defense and Aerospace Park, is expected to open in 2030.

The project will be located within Bengaluru’s Defense and Aerospace Park, a 2,600-acre special economic zone developed by the Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board (KIADB). Its location near National Highway 7 and Kempegowda International Airport is expected to support demand from companies operating across the aerospace, technology and hardware sectors.

The signing adds to Marriott’s expansion in South Asia, where Courtyard by Marriott currently operates more than 25 hotels. The new property is planned to serve corporate travellers and the meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE) segment as business activity grows in North Bengaluru.

Kiran Andicot, Senior Vice President, South Asia, Marriott International, said, “The signing of the largest Courtyard by Marriott in South Asia marks a key milestone for Marriott International. It reinforces our commitment to expanding in one of India’s most dynamic cities – Bengaluru.”

The development also marks Fairlark Group’s entry into the hospitality sector through its partnership with Marriott International. N Madhava Raju, CEO and Managing Director, Fairlark, said, “This signing represents a defining step for the Fairlark Group as we venture into the hospitality sector. Our decision to partner with Marriott International and bring a 350-key Courtyard by Marriott to the market reflects our confidence in Marriott’s established market leadership and the strength of its global distribution network.”

The hotel is expected to include 350 guest rooms, an all-day dining restaurant with a bar, a fitness centre, spa and swimming pool. It will also have approximately 2,000 sq. m. of indoor and outdoor meeting and banqueting space for corporate events, conferences and social functions.

The project comes as North Bengaluru develops as a business and industrial destination, with the Aerospace Park attracting activity across aerospace, technology and related sectors. Its proximity to the airport is also expected to support corporate travel to the area.

The signing expands its presence in Bengaluru’s business hotel market. For Fairlark, the project marks its first move into hospitality, with the 350-key development forming part of its entry into the sector.
