The news: Lemon Tree Hotels has acquired land adjoining Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) on the Western Express Highway in Bandra (East). The proposed hotel will have approximately 172 keys and capitalize on BKC's status as Mumbai's premier business and financial hub.
Why it matters for MICE operators: BKC is home to major corporations, financial institutions, and multinational offices—core clients for corporate events, meetings, and incentive programs. A 172-key property positioned directly adjacent significantly boosts overnight capacity for mid-to-large corporate groups. For DMCs and PCOs managing Mumbai-based MICE, this adds a strategically located venue option with direct connectivity to key client locations, reducing ground logistics complexity and improving group accommodation efficiency.
The takeaway: Add Lemon Tree's BKC property to your Mumbai venue roster once it opens and negotiate early partnership terms with the pre-opening sales team.
