We didn’t set out to build another hotel. The world already has too many places with beige lobbies, playlists on shuffle, and thread counts passed off as character. Lifestyle hospitality began as rebellion; hotels as living rooms for culture, places to feel something new. Then sameness crept in. Wallpaper disguised as wonder. A category that once promised surprise became just another checkbox on a booking site.

Otherland was born as the counterpoint. We knew South Asia didn’t need imported templates or Western imitations. It needed hotels that could carry the noise, the rhythm, the layered chaos of where we live. Places where luxury doesn’t mean silence but pulse. Where check-in happens at the bar, names are remembered before Wi-Fi codes, and the playlist could have only come from this city, this night.

Luxury, for us, is not ornament but intention. It’s taste with teeth. The linen is real because you can feel it. The lighting flatters because it’s honest. The cocktail coaster is designed with as much care as the rooftop DJ set. The small things matter more than the clichés—because memories don’t form in straight lines, they come from plot twists.
And here’s the thing: we’re not trying to do everything. We’d rather do fewer things brilliantly.
Our mission is simple: to turn every stay into a love story worth retelling. Our vision is bolder: to become South Asia’s most loved, most talked-about lifestyle hotel brand by making luxury fearless, personal, impossible to duplicate.
We’re not really into rules on the wall or framed mission statements. What matters is the little signals that tell you someone cared. Like the way a playlist feels perfectly timed to the rain outside, or how the coaster under your drink is just as considered as the drink itself. That’s love, and we show it through taste.
What lasts isn’t the big-ticket stuff anyway. No one goes home bragging about a “deluxe king.” They talk about the night the chef rolled out a street cart in the lobby at 1AM, or how the rooftop turned into a festival by accident.
The memory is always the moment.
We also think curiosity keeps things alive. It’s why our menus change, our spaces shift, our people are always nudging you toward something you haven’t tried yet. If you leave here having discovered a new flavor, a new track, or even a new friend, then we’ve done it right.
And through it all, we lean on warmth. Not the stiff kind, not the robotic “your call is very important to us” version. Real warmth. The sort that feels like walking into a cousin’s house, being handed a plate before you’ve taken off your shoes, and immediately being folded into the chaos. That’s the culture we were raised on, and that’s the kind of hospitality we want you to feel.
And yes, we’re still building this thing. Every day, new plot twists. If reading this makes you want to join the ride, if you’ve got taste and curiosity in your bones, drop us a line: careers@otherlandhotels.com. We’re not looking for people to follow rules; we’re looking for people who’ll write new ones with us. So if you’re here just for a bed,
