As New Delhi prepares to host the 18th BRICS Summit on September 12–13, bringing together heads of state, senior officials and delegations from some of the world’s leading emerging economies, The LaLiT New Delhi is preparing to welcome international guests and delegates arriving in the capital for the high-profile gathering.
Delegations and representatives from countries including South Africa, Burundi and the UAE among other countries are expected to stay at the hotel, contributing to the diverse international presence that The LaLiT New Delhi will host during the summit period.
With India holding the BRICS chairship in 2026, the capital will also host the 16th BRICS Health Ministers’ Meeting and the 4th BRICS Technical Meeting on Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine. In preparation, The LaLiT New Delhi is readying its banqueting and conference facilities to support visiting delegates and technical sessions, while ensuring that service remains rooted in the warmth, attentiveness and personalised hospitality for which the hotel is known.
“India hosting the BRICS Summit is a moment of immense pride for the country, and for us at The LaLiT, it is also deeply personal,” said Vishal Sharma, General Manager, The LaLiT New Delhi. “The LaLiT New Delhi was built with the belief that a hotel should be an extension of the nation it represents — warm, dignified and unmistakably Indian. As the world arrives at our doorstep this September, we look forward to welcoming our guests with that same spirit.”
The hotel’s approach to hospitality has long been defined by enduring guest relationships and thoughtful service. Many guests return year after year, drawn not only by the property’s location and facilities, but by the sense of familiarity and care they experience during each stay.
“At the heart of ‘Hospitality With A Heart’ is the ability to understand our guests beyond the obvious and to anticipate their needs with sincerity,” added Sharma. “As we welcome delegates and visitors from across the world during the BRICS Summit, our focus will remain on delivering an experience that is seamless, personal and genuinely warm.”
Through its preparations for the summit, The LaLiT New Delhi aims to reflect the best of Indian hospitality — combining efficiency and discretion with a sense of welcome that feels both personal and distinctly rooted in the country’s culture.
