Ontario Minister of Economic Development and Trade, Hon. Sandra Pupatello, today officially inaugurated the Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai’s rooftop signage in an intimate lighting ceremony 135 meters above the Arabian Sea, in what will be the company’s first property on the Indian subcontinent.

"Four Seasons is one of Canada's great success stories, its name now synonymous around the world for its innovative ingenuity, luxury and high standards," said the Honourable Sandra Pupatello, Ontario Minister of Economic Development and Trade. "Isadore Sharp, the company’s CEO, and a native Ontarian, is a shining example of the entrepreneurial spirit inherent in the province, and illustrates our ability to compete and win in a competitive global economy."

As the Hotel approaches its opening, the lighting ceremony “represents a symbol of achievement of the strategic alliance between Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and Magus Estates & Hotels Pvt. Ltd” said Uday Rao, Hotel Manager, Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai.

Furthering its collection of Asian properties, Four Seasons is soon to offer its fine hospitality in India in the emerging Worli district of Mumbai. The Hotel’s spacious accommodations and Four Seasons signature service will provide for the utmost enjoyment and relaxation. With views of the Arabian Sea, Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai promises to be an oasis for travellers. The hotel will open early 2008 and is now confirming reservations for arrival from March 15, 2008.
