Encalm announces the launch of Encalm Xenia at International Departures, Terminal 3, Indira Gandhi International Airport, New Delhi. Conceived as a sanctuary of privacy and privilege, Xenia redefines the art of luxury by curating an experience that is both deeply personal and meticulously elevated.
With Xenia, Encalm sets a new standard in airport hospitality, where every element reflects thoughtful design, intuitive care, and refined service. Crafted for those who value serenity and sophistication, this exclusive retreat offers a haven for travellers where elegant interiors and bespoke experiences come together to create an atmosphere of calm and effortless grace.
Within Xenia, travellers are invited into a space designed to prepare and elevate them for the journey ahead. Quiet rooms and ergonomically designed recliners offer tranquil spaces for rest or reflection, while expert spa therapies help ease pre-flight fatigue. Culinary indulgence lies at the heart of the Xenia experience. As an exclusive first-class lounge offering a complete à la carte menu, every meal begins with a curated ritual: a refreshing towel, followed by an amuse-bouche- a bread basket, marinated olives, and a grape coated in goat cheese and crushed pistachios, served directly at your table. Guests are then invited to explore a tapas-inspired service, where an array of bite-sized global and Indian plates are presented individually- each dish designed to surprise and delight. The Xenia Bar complements the experience with a refined selection of wines, premium spirits, and signature cocktails, while a bespoke Tea Trolley may also be requested, featuring a handpicked selection of teas accompanied by delicate tea-side snacks.
Beyond its elevated comforts, Encalm Xenia has been envisioned as a space where connection, calm, and seamless service converge. The lounge’s design reflects timeless architectural harmony and rich, tactile materials, creating a visual language of quiet transcendence. Guests may unwind in dedicated quiet rooms, rejuvenate in private shower suites, or restore their rhythm at the spa, while buggy transfers and high-speed Wi-Fi ensure effortless transitions and connectivity throughout. Ambience and service blend intuitively, with thoughtful guest care ensuring every journey begins in complete comfort. With curated art accents, ambient lighting, and a philosophy centred on mindfulness and exclusivity, Xenia stands as an experience that celebrates the beauty of stillness amidst movement.
Speaking on the launch, Vikas Sharma, Group Chief Executive Officer, Encalm Hospitality, said: “With Encalm Xenia, we are proud to introduce a new benchmark in airport hospitality– one that engages all the senses. From the quiet rhythm of personalised service to the aroma of freshly baked goods and the warmth of handcrafted teas, Xenia is a sanctuary designed for those who move the world yet seek a moment of solace before take-off. A complimentary pour of champagne sets the tone for an experience that is both thoughtful and deeply personal. With this space, Encalm reimagines airport lounges as something deeply personal, exclusive, and exceptional- a first-class experience.”
