The meaning of their names is similar – aspiration or hope for Armaan and longing or wish for Arzoo. Their parents begot them after much effort. Today the young couple has crafted a beautiful European style luxury boutique hotel – District 5 in Sector 5 Panchkula – by amalgamating the best of their experiences of newly opened boutique hotels during their frequent worldwide sojourns.

“The theme, Feel At Home, Away From Home pervades every nook and corner of the hotel, inspired by European design aspects and the minimalistic and functional approach towards all aspects of hospitality,” the lovely duo shared with LifeInChandigarh.com during a media preview on Thursday.

“Both of us are very fond of glass. So, you will find large-sized glass panes, and exquisite chandeliers everywhere on the property. The glass panes in the gold and silver rooms, in the restaurant area and the two banquets allow guests to soak in the natural sunlight. We have used soothing colours like whites and cool blues to provide an environment of calmness, relaxation and rejuvenation. Plants, mainly palms, have been placed liberally, wherever possible, in the hotel to act as natural air purifiers,” they explained.
