Sterling Holiday Resorts announced the opening of Sterling Hibis Vellore, a 40-key resort located on a lush 5.3-acre estate just off Tiruvannamalai Road. This marks Sterling’s entry into Vellore and adds a unique bleisure destination to its growing national portfolio.

Positioned at the crossroads of pilgrimage, healthcare, education, and commerce, Sterling Hibis Vellore caters to a diverse spectrum of travellers—from devotees visiting the famed Golden Temple at Sripuram, to families exploring the historic Vellore Fort, to medical and academic visitors bound for CMC and VIT, and corporates seeking a retreat-style venue in the city. 

Guests can also extend their holiday circuits with nearby Sterling resorts – Sterling Yelagiri and Sterling Arunai Anantha Tiruvannamalai combining spiritual, cultural, and leisure experiences.

The resort features 36 Classic Rooms and 4 Suites, blending modern comforts with a villa-style layout. Dining experiences are anchored by Orchid Restaurant, which showcases Arcot Nawabi heritage flavours alongside global cuisines, and Iris Bar, a vibrant lounge offering signature cocktails and light bites. A full-service spa, fitness centre, and a 2,500 sq. ft. swimming pool with a kids’ section add leisure indulgence to the stay.

For events, Sterling Hibis Vellore offers a Grand Banquet Hall accommodating 150 guests and an expansive party lawn for up to 600, making it a sought-after choice for weddings, social celebrations, and corporate offsites.
