Fairfield by Marriott Kolkata
Fairfield by Marriott Kolkata is the least expensive of the three New Town pool hotels. The 146 rooms fill a modern block in Action Area 1C, 12.5 km and about 20 minutes from the terminal, with an outdoor pool, one restaurant, a bar with a view of the Biswa Bangla Gate, a fitness centre and free parking. It costs less than the Novotel and Westin nearby, keeps the pool that families want, and publishes a fixed airport transfer price so the morning cab is not a negotiation.
Guest Rooms
Rooms come with a king bed or two double beds and an Executive category on the upper floors, all with a work desk, a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities, a minibar, a safe and a bathroom with a walk-in shower. Free Wi-Fi is included for Marriott Bonvoy members booking direct. The upper floors on the east side look across New Town to the Biswa Bangla Gate, the glass ring above the roundabout that is the district’s landmark. Rooms with two double beds and connecting rooms are the family choice; cots are available on request.
Standard room amenities include:
- Air conditioning

- Work desk

Breakfast and Dining
Kava, the all-day restaurant, serves the breakfast buffet with continental, Indian and vegetarian options, then lunch and dinner from local and international menus. Breakfast is bundled into some rates and member packages rather than every booking, so check before you assume. Vertex, the bar, has indoor and outdoor seating with a view of the Biswa Bangla Gate and a cocktail list that runs late. Room service is available 24 hours, and there is a convenience store in the hotel.

The outdoor pool is free for guests, with an accessible entrance, and the fitness centre is open to all.
