Our Project

The Marriott Resort & Spa , is located approx. 40 km from the city of Jammu which is also where the nearest Airport is located. It is about 10km from the city center and The Vaishno Shrine is 18.5 kilometer from the site. The City has a very strong Local Culture and Religious sentiments attached , and that has been the inspiration for the Design of the Interior spaces , which reflect local geography , History and ritualistic Symbolism. This was a very important part in the development of the Architecture as well as Aesthetics of the Interior Design.
