That's the spirit: Trident to reopen next month

New Delhi: Mumbai's Trident Hotel will re-open on December 21, 2008.

The Oberoi and Trident hotels, which are actually adjoining twin towers, were both sites of last week's terrorist attacks.

Work is underway at the Trident to equip it to deal with the Christmas holiday rush.

The hotel is also getting new and improved security infrastructure. The local police have also been requested to extend all assistance.

However, the adjacent Oberoi Hotel - which took the brunt of the terror strikes - will take many months to re-open.
