Lemon Tree Hotels today launched a women’s initiative that focuses on the growing segment of women travellers and their specific needs.
To launch the new initiative, actor Milind Soman, brand Ambassador for Pinkathon, who is in town to promote the 2-day event for spreading awareness on breast cancer, today inaugurated the dedicated women’s wing at Lemon Tree Premier, Ulsoor Lake in Bengaluru.
This new initiative revolves around creating dedicated spaces within Lemon Tree Hotels for women guests and developing a product-service offering that provides greater security, offers special amenities that meet ladies expectations and most of all pampers them every time they choose Lemon Tree Hotels..  Some of the prominent features include enhanced security in public areas and near these rooms, screening of phone calls, specially designed and decorated rooms with a range of women oriented amenities such as cosmetics, robes, jewellery boxes and full length mirrors, etc.
As part of the new initiative, women travellers at all Lemon Tree Hotels will also enjoy the use of facial steamers and foot massagers (on request) in their rooms, in addition to  the relaxing and rejuvenating services available at the spa and salon.

“As a woman, I can see how this focus has grown the women’s segment for Lemon Tree Hotels over the last few years. Our focus on enhanced security, amenities in tune with their requirements and a little bit of pampering makes this a winning proposition.,” said Aradhana Lal, Vice President Corporate Communications & Sustainability Initiatives, The Lemon Tree Hotel Company.
