Faletti’s Hotel is located in the heart of Lahore, the capital of Punjab Province and the second largest city of Pakistan. Apart from being the cultural and academic center of the country, Lahore is the Mughal Show-Window of Pakistan. Mughal Emperors beautified Lahore, with palaces, gardens and mosques. During the British regime, many monuments sprang up in Lahore, which blended beautifully with the Mughal, Gothic and Victorian architecture.
Faletti’s Hotel was established in British India in 1880 and was one of the most prestigious hotels in Pakistan until the establishment of modern hotels in the late sixties and early seventies.
The Hotel is only 15 minutes drive from the Lahore Airport and 5 minutes drive from the Lahore station. It is ideally located in the business district of Lahore within walking distance from commercial centres, the Mall Lahore, railway and airlines offices and the landmark building of the Assembly Chambers, WAPDA and the Islamic Summit monument. It is also close to the famous botanical gardens, the Lahore Zoo, the Al-Hamra theatre complex, and the famous Anarkali Bazaar, the Lahore Museum and the legendary Kim’s Gun. It has a total area of over 363,000 sq. ft. including a build-up area of approx. 18,249 sq. Ft. It has total staff of 173 and 44 residential rooms, banquet hall, restaurant and facilities like tourist office, post office, travel and tour operating agencies, car rental and currency exchange counters etc. It walls and floors are decorated by Burma Teak and its fine lawns have centuries old trees.
Presently, the land owned by the Hotel is not being efficiently utilized. The number of rooms per acre of land works out to be 7.68, which is extremely low. There exists great opportunity for constructing a modern multi-storied hotel while retaining the Old World charm of Faletti’s hotel building by refurbishing and renovating the historical parts of the hotel building. Vast tracts of land at the disposal of the hotel can be utilised by construction of a shopping arcade or an office tower. This will significantly enhance the revenue of the hotel as well as the value of the property.
