Galaxy is the latest boutique banquet at AltAir, adding to the existing four banquets the hotel already has. So why would they come up with another one? “Demand,” said Ayan Mitra, general manager of AltAir, in Sector V. “Even with four banquets we realised the demand is huge and we were unable to offer more space to guests who come to us for booking, so we decided to come up with a new space,” said Ayan Mitra, general manager of AltAir.

Located on the ground floor of Ambuja Neotia, Eco Centre, Salt Lake Sector V, Galaxy is spread across 4,700sq ftand divided into the main hall and a pre-function area. “Our focus is not only to make social gatherings stand apart but a large part of the business in Sector V where Galaxy is situated comes from corporate and business houses as well. Making great experiences for work gatherings that are not just about meetings and presentations will automatically bring in a large part of this,” added Ayan. Galaxy has a look and feel of a modern banquet done with beautiful artwork on the walls. The banquet is now open for booking ideally for any compact social function or corporate gathering.
