aloft to open two fanciful Indian hotels in 2010, HDTVs included
We've seen a number of US hotel developments including those four delightful letters (that would be HDTV, for the uninitiated), but now a pair of options in India should enable those traveling to Chennai and Bangalore to enjoy such high-resolution niceties. aloft hotels has recently announced plans to partner up with Urbanedge Hotels Private Limited to open up a hotel in the two aforementioned areas, both of which will supposedly open in 2010. aloft Chennai is slated to feature 140 guest rooms while aloft Bangalore will include 170, and both locations will tout WiFi and the ability to connect cellphones, DAPs and other gadgetry to an unspecified "large flat-panel HDTV." Sounds like a visit is in order in just a few years, no?

I have stayed in the five star hotels in Chennai. While they do have nice 32 to 42 inch HDTVs, there's no programming that's HD. So, its all set to "Stretch-o-rama" and that defeats that purpose of having a HDTV other than to claim that they have one!

Yeah...I stayed at a hotel in St. Maarten with a 37" HD LCD in the room...but no HDTV service.

Best hotels I've ever stayed at anywhere in the world were the Taj and Meridian hotels in Bombay. Freaking amazing. Fastest wireless Internet anywhere in a hotel too. If India weren't so depressing a place to be, I'd go there on vacation and stay in those amazing hotels again!
