Packaging Variety: Options in boxes, pouches, plastic bottles, tubes, or eco-friendly materials like wooden elements. Products are available in guest-sized portions (e.g., 30-35ml bottles) as well as bulk formats, including large 5-liter cans for dispensers. 

These products are designed to elevate the guest experience, offering luxurious scents, nourishing formulas, and sustainable options that align with modern hospitality standards.

2025 is shaping up to be the most significant year yet for Chennai’s hospitality sector, as the city continues to expand its hotel landscape with new signings, long-term developments and growing investor confidence. With rising demand from business travel, leisure tourism and the IT corridor, Chennai’s hospitality ecosystem is steadily evolving, creating new experiences and employment opportunities across the city.

Adding momentum to this growth, three global hospitality brands have identified Chennai as a key destination for future expansion: Courtyard by Marriott Chennai World Trade Center, JW Marriott Chennai OMR and The Ritz-Carlton Chennai. These announcements have generated strong anticipation among residents and industry stakeholders alike, reinforcing the city’s position as a growing hospitality hub in South India.

Courtyard by Marriott Chennai World Trade Center, anticipated to open in FY 2027, is expected to feature 45 thoughtfully designed guestrooms and two dining outlets. The hotel will include a modern fitness centre and reflect the brand’s classic design language, offering seamless service focused on comfort and connectivity. Located close to major commercial office complexes, the property will also benefit from being approximately 13 kilometres from Chennai International Airport. It will form part of a mixed-use development that includes the World Trade Center, residential spaces and retail outlets.

JW Marriott Chennai OMR is scheduled to open in FY 2030 and will bring 250 guestrooms and suites to the city. The property is planned to feature wellness-led offerings such as the Spa by JW, a swimming pool and a fitness centre. Additional highlights include a JW Garden, five dining venues and around 1,400 square metres of meeting and event space. Located along Old Mahabalipuram Road, Chennai’s prominent IT corridor, the hotel will cater to both leisure and business travellers. Both Marriott properties are being developed in collaboration with Brigade Hotel Ventures Limited.

Industry circles are also awaiting further updates on The Ritz-Carlton Chennai, with more details expected to be announced in the coming days, adding to the excitement surrounding luxury hospitality growth in the city.

Beyond these developments, Indian Hotels Company (IHCL) is strengthening its footprint in Chennai with multiple projects. IHCL, in collaboration with the Chennai-based Ampa Group and Bharathi Meraki, is developing Taj Skyview Residences and Hotel on Nelson Manickam Road. This project marks India’s first Taj-branded residences alongside a new Taj luxury hotel and is expected to open by December 2027.

In another major move, IHCL has announced the signing of a new Taj hotel on Chennai’s East Coast Road as a greenfield development, in partnership with MGM Healthcare. This further underlines the brand’s long-term confidence in Chennai’s hospitality potential.

With several premium and luxury hotels in the pipeline, Chennai is preparing to offer one of its strongest hospitality portfolios yet. The coming years are expected to redefine the city’s accommodation landscape, positioning Chennai to deliver world-class hospitality experiences while supporting economic growth and employment generation.
