About Arlene II
The Arlene II Event Space
Arlene II is a dedicated event venue at Howard Johnson by Wyndham Kolkata, the full-service hotel located in New Town, Rajarhat — one of Kolkata's fastest-growing planned townships and a preferred corridor for business travel, technology campuses, and upscale residential development. The space carries the understated, professional character that defines the Howard Johnson brand: well-maintained interiors, flexible room configuration, and a setup that keeps the focus firmly on the event itself rather than competing décor. Whether a gathering is intimate or moderately scaled, Arlene II provides a contained, air-conditioned environment that feels purposeful without being overwhelming.
The venue sits within a property that understands the full spectrum of event needs, from a focused boardroom session to a celebratory dinner, and Arlene II benefits directly from that infrastructure. Guests and organisers alike have access to the hotel's broader facilities — including its dining and hospitality services — which means that the logistics of running an event here are considerably smoother than at a standalone banquet facility.
Events & Occasions
Arlene II is well suited to corporate meetings, training workshops, product presentations, business luncheons, and similar professional gatherings. Its scale and configuration also make it a comfortable fit for smaller social occasions — birthday celebrations, engagement functions, and intimate family dinners — where a private, hotel-quality environment is preferred over a larger banquet hall. The corporate community in New Town, anchored by the nearby IT and business parks of Rajarhat, represents a natural audience for this kind of mid-sized, professionally managed event space.
For event planners specifically, the Howard Johnson Kolkata property offers in-house catering backed by the hotel's kitchen, audio-visual support, and a coordinated events team that can assist with end-to-end planning. Arlene II can be set up in a variety of standard configurations — theatre, classroom, cluster, or banquet rounds — making it adaptable across different event formats without requiring extensive custom work. This flexibility is one of the most practical advantages the space offers.
Location & Accessibility
Howard Johnson by Wyndham Kolkata is situated in New Town (Rajarhat), which places it in close proximity to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport — making it a genuinely convenient choice for events with outstation delegates or guests travelling from other cities. The New Town area is well connected by road, and the ongoing expansion of Kolkata's metro network is steadily improving public transport access to this part of the city.
For attendees based in Kolkata's central business districts or the Salt Lake Sector V technology hub, New Town is a logical midpoint that avoids the congestion of the older city corridors. The hotel offers parking for guests arriving by car, and its location within the planned township means the surroundings are orderly and easy to navigate. For organisers bringing together a mixed group of local and outstation attendees, this combination of airport proximity, road access, and on-site accommodation makes Howard Johnson Kolkata — and Arlene II within it — a practical and well-rounded choice.
