Have you delivered a hotel fit-out in Bengaluru?
No, and to be complete about it, we have not delivered a hotel in any city. Our completed record is residential, two Chennai offices and one Chennai cafe, plus a single Bengaluru villa. We would rather state that than present a render as a reference. If a delivered hotel is a shortlisting requirement, we do not meet it — and if your scope is a serviced-apartment or co-living fit-out, our residential record is genuinely more relevant.
Why build a prototype room first?
Because a guest-room fit-out is a repeated product and every error repeats with it. The prototype locks dimensions, finishes, socket and switch positions, hardware, and the housekeeping details that only surface when someone tries to clean the room. Finding a problem in room one costs a week; finding the same problem in room thirty costs the programme and the budget.
Can you work while the property stays open?
Yes, floor by floor or block by block with hoarding, separate worker access and agreed noise windows. Expect roughly 20 to 40% longer than the same scope in a vacant property, because hours are restricted and set-up and clean-down happen daily rather than once. The maximum rooms out of inventory is agreed before mobilising — that number, not our labour capacity, sets the programme.
How is guest-room joinery specified differently from residential?
For abuse and for cleaning rather than appearance. Suitcase impact on skirtings and bed bases, wet towels on vanity tops, and daily chemical cleaning are loads no home imposes. That means moisture-resistant substrates, fully sealed machine-banded edges with no open joints, and surfaces chosen so a damaged panel is repaired in place rather than requiring the room to be stripped.
Can you execute to an operator's brand standard?
Yes — shop drawings, material submittals and a prototype for approval against the manual. Where a brand standard specifies something that will not perform in the position it is called for, we raise it in writing with an alternative rather than install a known failure. What we cannot offer is a track record of having done so on a completed hotel.
What does a hospitality fit-out cost in Bengaluru?
There is no useful published rate: cost per key swings with key count, number of key types, whether the property is live, and how much public-area and F&B scope is included. We price from a BOQ after surveying the property, with guest rooms costed per key type and public areas costed separately, so the repeatable component is visible distinctly from the bespoke one.
