About Poolside Lawn
An Open-Air Lawn by the Pool
The Poolside Lawn at Orritel Hotel, Pune is an outdoor event space set against the backdrop of the hotel's swimming pool, offering a refreshing al fresco atmosphere that stands apart from conventional banquet halls. The open setting brings natural light and sky into the event experience, creating a relaxed yet elegant ambience that works equally well for daytime celebrations and evening soirées illuminated by ambient lighting. The combination of greenery, water, and open air gives the space a distinct character — unhurried and scenic — that is difficult to replicate indoors.
For couples planning a wedding, the Poolside Lawn provides a picturesque setting for pre-wedding functions such as mehendi and sangeet ceremonies, cocktail evenings, and intimate wedding receptions. Its outdoor format lends itself to personalised décor themes, from floral canopy setups to fairy-light canopies and themed lounge arrangements, allowing planners to transform the space to match their vision. Corporate teams equally find it well-suited for informal networking sessions, outdoor team-building activities, product launch sundowners, and casual client entertainment that benefit from an open-air venue rather than a formal boardroom setting.
Location in Hinjawadi, Pune's IT Corridor
Orritel Hotel sits in Hinjawadi, the technology and business hub on Pune's western edge, which is home to the Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park and several major multinational companies. This location makes the Poolside Lawn particularly convenient for corporate event organisers whose guests and delegates are based in or travelling through the Hinjawadi–Wakad–Baner belt. The hotel's position in this growth corridor also means proximity to serviced apartments, business parks, and transit routes connecting to Pune city, making logistics straightforward for out-of-town attendees.
For social event hosts, Hinjawadi's expanding residential communities mean a large catchment of potential guests in the immediate vicinity, reducing travel time for local invitees. The area is well connected by road to Pune's main arterial routes, and the hotel provides an accessible base for guests arriving from the Mumbai–Pune Expressway direction as well.
Choosing the Poolside Lawn for Your Event
What distinguishes the Poolside Lawn from a typical hotel banquet room is its sense of openness and the visual depth that a poolside backdrop provides. Event photographs taken here carry a quality of space and light that enclosed venues rarely achieve. The setting invites creative décor decisions — the water surface can be used for floating floral arrangements or candle setups, while the surrounding area accommodates stage structures, buffet counters, and lounge seating in flexible configurations.
Orritel Hotel's in-house events and catering team supports bookings at the Poolside Lawn, coordinating food and beverage service, audiovisual requirements, and operational details so that hosts can focus on the experience rather than the logistics. Whether the occasion is an intimate family gathering or a mid-sized corporate mixer, the Poolside Lawn at Orritel Hotel, Pune offers a venue that combines the energy of the outdoors with the service standards of a full-service hotel.
