Building on the legacy of ITC's iconic hotel properties in India, ITC Narmada is a befitting tribute to the rich heritage, grandeur and vibrant culture of Gujarat. It is also the first hotel in the State to receive the LEED Platinum certification for its sustainability and environmental stewardship. I am confident that this world-class property will make a meaningful contribution to the vibrant tourism landscape of Gujarat.Over the years, ITC has been expanding its presence in the state across agriculture, manufacturing and services. Our multi-dimensional interventions include farmer empowerment across a range of agri value chains, growing footprint of our manufacturing and hospitality assets as well as launching new initiatives like ITCMAARS (Metamarket for Advanced Agriculture and Rural Services), a 'Phygital Eco-System' that digitally empowers farmers with FPOs as the pivot. Stepping up our investments further, we are now constructing a state-of-the-art packaging unit at Nadiad, which will create significant livelihood opportunities in the State."Nakul Anand, Executive Director, ITC Ltd said, "The addition of ITC Narmada to our luxury hotel portfolio further strengthens our presence in Western India. Ahmedabad is rich in culture and traditions in a unique way - it has celebrated the culture of the intellect through the centuries, where literature, poetry, painting, sculpture, theatre, cinema, science, have not only blossomed, but are inherent to the ethos of Gujarat. In keeping with ITC Hotels' philosophy of Responsible Luxury and creating indigenous experiences, ITC Narmada is rooted to the ethos of the land and pays a tribute to these finest experiences that while being indigenous to the State are celebrated globally."The ITC promise of luxury hospitality comes with responsibility towards the environment and its resources, through its commitment to sustainability. ITC Narmada registered with USGBC for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) platinum certification. Right from developing the site to construction and operationalising, sustainability has been at the heart of design at ITC Narmada with enhanced focus on energy efficiency, water efficiency, sustainable site development, use of sustainable materials and indoor environment quality.A series of sustainability initiatives such as rainwater harvesting, recycling water, using construction materials with high recycling content and deploying energy efficient systems for air conditioning, refrigeration and water pumping among other key functions, have been actively taken up as a sustainable practice at ITC Narmada, while offering unmatched luxury hospitality to its patrons.In line with ITC Hotels philosophy of staying rooted to the soil of the land, ITC Narmada creates a brand folklore - where various art works and artistic affiliation will spotlight the cultural panorama of Ahmedabad.ITC Narmada draws its architectural inspiration from the heritage icons of Gujarat. The façade elements are inspired by the classical Gujarat Toran of the Sun Temple at Modhera and the unique step wells that were once integral to the region. The central atrium lobby and its majestic water wall is a tribute to lifeline river Sabarmati. The building façade carries elements of local craft, including an interpretation of the famous "Tree of Life" at the Sidi Syed Mosque in Ahmedabad. The super imposing step wells architecture to latticework and mirrors, silks, brocades, world famous cotton weaves and teakwood of Narmada's basins will be the hallmark of ITC Narmada's artistic elevation.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
