The Astor Collection · Est. 1905

A Growing Portfolio of Hotels and Villas, Curated for Distinguished Stays.

Each address in the Astor Collection is held to the same idea - from a heritage landmark in Kolkata to a boutique retreat in Goa, and every address still to come - hospitality that feels personal, considered, and unhurried, wherever you find it.

The Collection

An heirloom in Kolkata. A sanctuary in Goa. Both owned and run by Archer Hospitality — with the same insistence on warmth, detail, and the small gestures that turn a stay into a memory.

The Astor Kolkata

Built in 1905 and still one of the city’s most recognisable Victorian red-brick landmarks. Set on Shakespeare Sarani - moments from Park Street, US Consulate, Victoria Memorial and the Indian Museum, and conveniently close to the British Deputy High Commission and Australian Consulate-General - The Astor is a boutique heritage address where four-poster suites, a Burmese teak staircase, and Kolkata’s storied dining legacy sit side by side.

Legacy
1905

The original Astor is built

A Victorian red-brick building goes up on Shakespeare Sarani, in what is then colonial Calcutta. It becomes a landmark almost immediately.

Legacy
1985

Kebab-e-Que opens

The hotel's now-legendary Indian kitchen begins service. Four decades later, it's still one of Kolkata's most quoted dining rooms.

Legacy
1999

Archer Hospitality takes charge

The property enters a new chapter under the Puri family's stewardship — a family that would go on to build the modern Astor brand.

Legacy
2012

The heritage restoration

A meticulous, floor-by-floor renovation. The building's Victorian bones are preserved; the rooms behind them are reimagined for a modern guest.

Legacy
2023

The Astor Goa opens

An all-suite boutique retreat in Candolim — the brand's first property outside Kolkata, and its first purpose-built one.

Legacy
2026

Villa in the Sky

A 4,650 sq ft double-storey penthouse launches at Astor Goa, marking the brand's move into ultra-premium private hospitality.

Recognition

Noticed for a standard
we quietly keep.

From leading travel platforms and hospitality councils to the guests who return year after year, the Astor idea has been noticed across every address in the collection.
