Roseate Hotels & Resorts has positioned itself as a leader in experiential and sustainable hospitality, seamlessly blending eco-conscious practices with cutting-edge technology. Under the leadership of CEO Kush Kapoor, the brand has been expanding rapidly across global markets. Its recent acquisition of Beechfield House in Wiltshire, UK, and upcoming plans for a 220-room hotel at Noida Airport equipped with advanced AI-driven solutions reflect Roseate’s forward-looking vision.

On the occasion of World Tourism Day, which this year focuses on Tourism & Sustainability, Kush Kapoor emphasised how Roseate weaves responsibility and care for the planet into every detail of its operations.

Quote from Mr. Kush Kapoor, CEO, Roseate Hotels & Resorts, “Tourism is a powerful force for connection, culture, and care for the planet. At Roseate Hotels & Resorts, sustainability is woven into every aspect of our guest experience—from farm-to-table dining and hydroponic farming to organic teas, locally sourced coffees, and handcrafted marmalades. We find joy in thoughtful details: recycling flowers into incense, turning food waste into nourishment for the earth, and creating moments that honour both nature and community. This World Tourism Day, we celebrate a future where travel uplifts, enriches, and sustains.”

Roseate Hotels continues to lead by example, integrating farm-to-table dining, organic produce, and eco-friendly innovations across its properties. From reducing waste to developing sustainable guest experiences, the brand is committed to making hospitality a force for positive change. With its global growth and new-age technology investments, Roseate is setting benchmarks in how travel can be both luxurious and sustainable.

Summit Hotels & Resorts, Eastern India’s largest hospitality chain, has announced its entry into the luxury market with the launch of its flagship brand, The Summit, in Siliguri. Scheduled to open in May 2027, this landmark development marks the group’s bold expansion beyond its mountain-based portfolio into the high-end urban hospitality segment.

Located in the heart of Siliguri, the gateway to Darjeeling, Sikkim, and Bhutan, The Summit is envisioned as the region’s first true urban luxury resort. The 100-room property, with each room featuring a private balcony, blends city convenience with resort indulgence. Designed by Vivek Singh Rathore, Partner at Salient and a Forbes India “Bold Club” honoree, the resort will integrate global design standards with Eastern India’s cultural and natural heritage. It will also serve as the corporate headquarters for the group.

The resort is set to redefine hospitality standards in tier-2 cities, positioning Siliguri as a hub for luxury weddings, corporate events, and leisure travel. With the largest banquet facilities in Eastern India, it will host up to 2,000 guests and manage 10 simultaneous events. Its complete wedding ecosystem will cater to the growing ₹1 crore-plus wedding market in Bihar and Bengal. In the MICE segment, state-of-the-art conference facilities will address the rising corporate presence in the city, offering premium event solutions.

Guests will also experience a wide-ranging lifestyle offering. Dining options will include Himalayan specialties, global cuisines, rooftop venues with city and mountain views, and poolside grills. A wellness sanctuary will feature traditional Himalayan therapies and modern treatments, while a recreational complex will introduce pickleball, squash courts, a multi-sport ground, indoor games, and a fitness centre. The resort will also debut Siliguri’s first 40-foot-high nightclub and lounge, featuring international DJs, live entertainment, and premium mixology.

Sustainability remains central to the project, with plans for green building certifications, renewable energy use, water conservation, and collaborations with local artisans and suppliers. The development is expected to create over 300 local jobs while embedding authentic regional elements into its design and guest experiences.

Sumit Mitruka, CEO & Founder of Summit Hotels & Resorts, said: “This resort is our love letter to Siliguri and the entire region. For 15 years, we’ve welcomed guests to our mountain properties. Now, we’re bringing that same warmth and world-class hospitality to the city that’s been our home. The Summit is our bold step into the luxury market, a destination that will set new benchmarks for Eastern India and put Siliguri firmly on the national hospitality map.”

Industry experts have noted Siliguri’s growing importance as a wedding and events hub, with several global brands eyeing the market. However, The Summit is already under development, making Summit Hotels & Resorts the first mover in addressing the demand for large-scale luxury venues in Eastern India. Representing the group’s largest investment to date, the property also forms a cornerstone of its goal to expand to 50 hotels by 2030.
