The new property offers 254 guest rooms and suites and showcases Le Meridien signature features, such as Latest Recipe, the brand’s all-day-dining concept, and the Le Méridien arrival experience, curated by international arts provocateur Jérôme Sans.
Le Méridien Coimbatore includes 3500m² of meeting and event space and 11 smaller meeting rooms, making it one of the largest meeting venues in South India.
Palani G. Periasamy, chairman, PGP Group of Companies, which owns Le Méridien Coimbatore under its Appu Hotels Limited banner, commented: “We visualize great potential for Coimbatore to emerge as an ideal MICE destination.
“The city's salubrious climate and proximity to well-known hill stations in the Nilgiris such as Ooty, Kodaikanal, Munnar and wildlife sanctuaries make it an attractive destination for the leisure traveller, while its growth as a medicare and educational centre as well as the engineering and textile industries provide opportunities for it to become a strong industrial hub.
“We believe Le Méridien Coimbatore will position the city in the international market as a destination for holding flagship congresses, conferences and conventions,” Periasamy asserted.
