Leela Palace Kempinski

Our office is situated at Asnal Mansion in Kodihalli, right on the 23-Airport Road. Most people know the Leela Palace Kempinski name because it is a big landmark here in Bangalore, especially with the 560008 zip code. Working here means seeing a lot of people coming from the airport or heading back out. The road is always packed with cars and taxis. Inside the building, we handle the daily operations that keep a place like this running. It is a lot of coordination. We have people working in the front, some in the back, and others just making sure the building itself is in good shape. It is a grand place, but for us who work here every day, it is just our workplace. We see the big chandeliers and the fancy carpets, but we also see the service hallways and the kitchens. There is a lot of movement all the time. Whether it is a big event or just a few guests checking in, something is always happening. We don't really have time for complicated talk. We just focus on the tasks at hand. Sometimes the rain makes the Airport Road a mess, and that’s usually what we talk about over lunch. It’s a busy life at Kodihalli, but we are used to the pace by now. It is just how things go at this end of town, day in and day out.
