The Welcomhotel Guntur, just 40 miles West of the Bay of Bengal, finally opened in January 2022.
Our concept for the hotel was to immerse guests in the spirit of the region drawing on the tropical climate and beautiful botanical surroundings, complemented by the traditional elements intrinsic to all Welcom hotels.
The bedrooms aim to create a relaxed, luxurious but business like environment for guests, while introducing traditional elements such as a statement bed and decorative tiles to the bathrooms. Archtectural photography provides striking artwork to all rooms.
The majority of the public spaces are double height, which create a series of dramatic volumes. These have been layered and divided through the use of screens, metalwork and bespoke light fittings to create a rich interior, reflecting the colours of the region ranging from the vibrant greens found in the local chillies to the distinctive colours of peacock feathers also native to the area.
