JW Marriott Bengaluru Golfshire Resort & Spa is now open in the Nandi Hills region of Bengaluru, once an ancient hill fortress and the summer retreat of Indian royalty.

The 301-room luxury resort is located within the 275-acre, award-winning Prestige Golfshire course and luxury residential development. It is a 20-minute drive from Bengaluru’s Kempegowda International Airport.
