JW Marriott Bengaluru Review: Executive Suite Stay Using Marriott Bonvoy Points

 If you're looking for a luxury hotel in Bengaluru with an unbeatable location, elegant rooms, and exceptional service, JW Marriott Hotel Bengaluru is a top contender. On my recent trip to Bangalore, I used Marriott Bonvoy points for a 1-night stay and had a truly memorable experience—complete with a surprise Executive Suite upgrade and Executive Lounge access.

📍 Location: Central & Convenient for Business and Leisure

Located in Bengaluru’s Central Business District (CBD), the hotel sits right next to:

Cubbon Park – perfect for morning walks or scenic views

UB City Mall – a luxury shopping and dining destination

M.G. Road and Koramangala – bustling areas with nightlife and restaurants

This makes JW Marriott Bengaluru ideal for both corporate travelers and tourists.

🛌 Room Experience: Executive Suite with Park View

I was pleasantly surprised to receive a complimentary upgrade from a base room to an Executive Suite, despite holding only Gold Elite status with Marriott Bonvoy (lounge access is typically reserved for Platinum or higher).

🔹 Suite Features:

Size: 900 sq. ft. / 81 sq. m.

King bed with plush linen

Spacious separate living room

Floor-to-ceiling windows with views of Cubbon Park

Marble bathroom, soaking tub, and premium toiletries

Coffee/tea maker, mini fridge, and work desk

Complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi

☕ Executive Lounge: Great Food, Quiet Space, Premium Perks

Access to the Executive Lounge was the highlight of my stay. The lounge offered:

Evening cocktails and hors d'oeuvres

Fresh juices, tea, and coffee all day

Indoor seating with city views and park views

Attentive and courteous staff

The evening spread included both Indian and international dishes, and the tranquil atmosphere made it ideal for relaxing or catching up on work.

Whether you're in the mood to relax or stay active, the amenities at JW Marriott Bengaluru won’t disappoint:

Outdoor swimming pool with city views

24/7 fitness center with modern equipment

🍽️ Dining Options at JW Marriott Bengaluru

While I mostly dined in the Executive Lounge, the property houses several fine dining venues:

JW Kitchen – Global buffet and à la carte options

ALBA – Upscale Italian cuisine

UNO Izakaya – Japanese-style casual dining

These make the hotel a mini culinary destination in itself.
