Mr. Rupam Dutta's 29-year hospitality career, starting with his graduation from the Institute of Advanced Management, Calcutta in 1994, is marked by dedication and strategic expertise. He quickly rose to leadership roles in India, notably at Sarovar Hotels (2000-2009) in Chennai, Delhi, and Bangalore, shaping his career. In 2009, he joined Radha Hotels, leading Radha Regent's development in Bangalore and later opening Feathers - A Radha Hotel, Chennai, in 2016, where he stayed until 2022. In March 2022, Mr. Dutta became General Manager at Radisson Blu, Outer Ring Road, Bangalore, managing a luxury five-star hotel.
In an exclusive interview with Hospitality news, Mr. Rupam Dutta provided valuable insights into various aspects of hotel management. When asked about ensuring high customer service and guest satisfaction, he shared:
"I'm very happy to share that Radisson as a brand has a well-laid program, a process where our connection with the customers, with our guests, is absolutely top-notch. Our guest relation team, as well as the service managers, are constantly following those standard operating procedures. We measure how we are performing with each guest, their stay experience, and their feedback. We constantly have a process to check how each of our areas are performing, and I think that's something brilliant that Radisson does."
Further, when the conversation steered towards staying updated on industry trends and implementing innovative practices, Mr. Rupam Dutta emphasized:
"Staying updated is very important, I believe, for all hoteliers and every other professional. It's not just limited to the hotel industry. First of all, we need to understand which market we are operating in and who we are doing business with. As long as you are aware of it, you understand what's going on with the industry as such, such as the hotel industry, globally. What are the trends, what's happening? And secondly, what's happening with the customers' platform? How are they evolving, how are they performing every year? So, through various studies, newspapers, news, and of course, all your professional networking, we always keep ourselves updated on the things that are happening within the industry."
It was indeed a great conversation we had, filled with insightful perspectives and practices from a leading figure in the hotel industry. For those interested in delving deeper into this engaging discussion, the complete video is available on the Hospitality News YouTube channel.
