LuLu group puts 217-room Marriot on block for ₹400 crore

An under-construction 5-star hotel near Bengaluru airport is up for sale for an estimated ₹400 crore. The hotel, owned by Twenty Fourteen Hotels India Pvt. Ltd, is 75% complete and is expected to be finalized within two months. The property, which was supposed to be ready by 2019, faced delays due to the mounting debt of Twenty14 Holdings, the hospitality investment arm of LuLu Group International. The hotel will be operated by Marriott International. The buyer is willing to pay ₹350 crore for the property, but additional funds will be needed to complete the construction.
