Intercontinental The Grand,New Delhi

Our location for Intercontinental The Grand is actually over in Ghaziabad, in a Hig Duplex at Vasundhara. It might seem a bit far from the main hotel hub in New Delhi, but this is where a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff happens. We use this space for managing the various parts of the hospitality business that don't need to be right in the lobby. It’s a quiet residential area, which is a nice change from the noise of the city. The office is basically a house, so it has a very different feel than a standard hotel floor. We have a kitchen where we make our own lunch and a small garden out front that someone tries to keep green. It’s where we sort out the schedules and keep track of the supplies. Sometimes it gets a bit cramped when we have a lot of paperwork to file, but we manage. We’ve been at 9/1046 for a while now, and it feels more like a home than a workplace. There aren't any fancy signs or neon lights out front. You’d probably walk right past it if you weren't looking for the number. We prefer it that way because it lets us focus on the details without too many distractions. It’s just a group of us working through the daily lists to make sure everything at the main property goes off without a hitch.
