JANUARY - MARCH 2012

Dear Guest,

As we are entering 2012, I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all

a very happy and prosperous New Year from all of us at The Claridges

Group. I thank you for your continuous patronage towards our hotels. As

always, this year will be equally exciting in terms of promotions and events

hosted at our group hotels and resorts.

The Claridges, New Delhi’s refurbishment has been completed on time.

Our rooms, spa, steam, sauna and back of the house areas boast a fresh

new look. Now, the refurbished rooms will delight you and make your stay

with us a memorable one.

The Claridges, Surajkund, Delhi, NCR has been a hub of exclusive events

during 2011. Amber Lounge – world’s most exclusive F1 after parties were

hosted at the property during India’s inaugural F1 season. The perfect

setting of the hotel made it an obvious choice to host such a grand event.

Our new acquisition in Rajasthan, The Claridges Bharatpur Palace is already

creating a buzz as a heritage destination that will offer a royal experience.

The hotel is expected to be operational by 2013/2014.

Your smiles keep us going strong and I hope that this year will also be full of

many smiles and happy moments for all of us. Once again, I wish you a

wonderful 2012.

Warm regards,

Peter J. Leitgeb
