Gokulam Grand Hotel & Spa is a luxury hotel on BEL Road, HMR Layout — conveniently located near Ramaiah Hospital, Indian Institute of Science, and other prominent institutional and corporate locations in north Bengaluru. It's not Whitefield and it's not the CBD, but it occupies a useful position for events that draw delegates from the science and education belt, or groups that want five-star accommodation without the east-corridor price premium.
The property runs four banquet halls — the flagship Gokulam Ground Ball Room at 6,350 sq ft, plus the Davos Banquet halls, Geneva Meeting rooms, and Zermatt Boardrooms — giving operators genuine flexibility across event sizes from 550 pax down to intimate boardroom setups. 360 rooms is a solid room block.

The Gokulam Ballroom in full configuration handles 279 theatre or 550 classroom — appropriate for mid-to-large conferences. The Gokulapuram room mirrors the same dimensions and layout, giving you a natural parallel space. The Davos Banquet Halls suit smaller corporate dinners and training sessions. The Zermatt Boardrooms are strictly intimate — board meetings and small client review sessions.

How to Reach
By Air: Kempegowda International Airport.
By Rail: Bengaluru City Junction Railway Station, Krantivira Sangolli Rayanna, Yesvantpur Junction.
Location context: BEL Road and HMR Layout put you in northern Bengaluru. This is practical for events where delegates are drawn from IISc, DRDO, BEL campuses, or the Mathikere/Hebbal corridor. For groups arriving from the airport, the drive is manageable outside peak hours.
Best For
- Scientific, academic, and defence-sector conferences (proximity to IISc and BEL campuses)
- Mid-size corporate conferences in the 100–280 pax range
- Training programmes where you need multiple parallel rooms (Davos halls + Geneva rooms + Zermatt boardrooms give you good configuration options)
- Groups that need a full-service luxury hotel without city-centre congestion
- Events with a mix of formal sessions and informal recreation (infinity pool, sports bar)
Operator Tips
- Ballroom split: The Gokulam Ballroom can be used as two separate rooms (Room 1 and Gokulapuram), each mirroring the other's dimensions. For conferences running plenary and breakout concurrently, this gives you matched parallel halls.
- Wi-Fi tiering: Complimentary access starts at 1 Mbps. For hybrid events or large delegate groups expecting conference-grade connectivity, negotiate the 15–30 Mbps tier into the package.
- Production Area A: 5,274 sq ft with no seating configuration data — this is your staging, AV, and technical setup zone. Confirm access timing and loading dock logistics with the venue.
- Doctor on call: Listed as a facility. Worth flagging in your proposal for pharma or healthcare sector clients who appreciate medical readiness.
- Chauffeur service: On-property luxury car transfers are useful for VIP delegate logistics within your programme design.
