The Hotel, a 4 star world class urban resort,
floats on the River Hooghly only a hundred yards from the shore.The
Hooghly river is a center-point of Indian history and the Floatel on
the Hooghly today, between the two Howrah Bridges, brings back that
history in its splendor, a time when Calcutta was in her finest
glory.
The 49 room Floating Hotel is based on the concept of
combining the best qualities of a luxury cruise ship with the beauty
of a world class hotel permanently anchored in the City Centre of
Calcutta. The land along the Floating Hotel consists of a promenade walkway
by the river (the only one of its kind in the city), a beautifully
landscaped garden, centrally air-conditioned reception areas, open
air banquet halls (ideal for weddings, book-launches, music concerts
or business parties), a promenade deck (ideal for parties, events,
celebrations, meetings). All in all, The Floatel is the only City
Centre Urban Resort in India. The Floatel is one of the properties
of Manor Floatel Limited, Calcutta.
India's only Floating
Hotel has been conceived, designed, constructed and built in
Calcutta by Mr. Manab Pal, Managing Director, Manor Floatel Limited
who worked tirelessly for many years and against huge odds to create
an exquisite unique river-front environment in Calcutta because he
strongly believed that a city as progressive in its ideas as
Calcutta, needed a hotel as unique and spectacular as The
Floatel.
