Thane/Chandigarh: In a move that reinforces its leadership in India’s luxury and upper-upscale hospitality segment, the Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), India’s largest and most iconic hospitality group, has announced the grand opening of Vivanta Thane, located on LBS Road. This new launch marks the Vivanta brand’s debut in Thane, one of the fastest-developing urban pockets within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).

Set against the scenic backdrop of Yeoor Hills, Vivanta Thane offers a harmonious blend of urban sophistication and natural tranquility. The hotel aims to cater to both business and leisure travelers, bringing with it IHCL’s legacy of world-class service, design, and hospitality innovation.


Strategic Expansion in a Rising Satellite City

Commenting on the launch, Ms. Deepika Rao, Executive Vice President – New Businesses & Hotel Openings, IHCL, said:

“The opening of Vivanta Thane reflects IHCL’s strategy of expanding into key urban centres. Thane, as an immediate neighbour to Mumbai, has evolved into a major satellite city within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. Located on LBS Road with seamless access to key transport arteries and business corridors, the hotel is well-positioned to meet the evolving needs of travellers.”

Thane has emerged as one of Maharashtra’s most dynamic urban hubs — combining industrial heritage with rapidly modernising infrastructure. Its proximity to Mumbai and improved connectivity through major expressways and metro projects makes it an ideal location for a premium hospitality offering.

Vivanta Thane offers a delightful selection of dining venues designed to suit varied palates:

  • Mynt – The hotel’s all-day diner, which features live stations and regional specialties, serves up more than just food; it offers panoramic views of Yeoor Hills, creating a serene and flavorful dining experience.

  • Zira – A specialty vegetarian restaurant, celebrating India’s rich plant-based culinary tradition through refined recipes and seasonal menus.

  • Wink – Vivanta’s signature bar that brings the nightlife alive. Guests can enjoy handcrafted cocktails, eclectic music, and a vibrant ambience perfect for socialising or unwinding after a long day.

  • Swirl – A colourful patisserie located in the lobby area, offering artistic desserts, baked treats, and curated teas and coffees.
