Hyatt Hotels Corporation is setting its sights on nearly doubling its footprint in India, planning to reach 100 properties within the next 5-6 years. With India's hospitality market growing at an unprecedented rate, this ambitious target reflects Hyatt's dedication to catering to the surging demand for high-quality travel experiences across the country.
Currently, Hyatt operates 52 hotels in Southwest Asia (50 in India and two in Nepal) under nine distinct brands, having already crossed the 10,000-key milestone. “With our strong pipeline and strategic growth initiatives, we are confident that we will achieve the milestone of 100 hotels within the next 5-6 years,” stated Sunjae Sharma, Managing Director for India & Southwest Asia at Hyatt Hotels Corporation. This growth is part of Hyatt’s focused strategy, aiming to tap into India's expanding travel and hospitality market by delivering personalized, luxury, and lifestyle-focused experiences.
The expansion will see Hyatt introduce more global brands to India while reinforcing its core brands, such as Hyatt Regency, Hyatt Place, and Hyatt Centric. The company also recently introduced the ‘Grand Showroom’ at Grand Hyatt Mumbai, an innovative venture designed to enhance hyper-personalized guest experiences and showcase Hyatt’s diverse hospitality offerings.
In line with its expansion goals, Hyatt has slated Hyatt Regency properties in Kasauli and Ghaziabad and Hyatt Place hotels in Aurangabad and Haridwar. Expanding into new countries, Hyatt Place Dhaka Uttara will soon open in Bangladesh, and India will welcome The Unbound Collection in Bhopal in 2025, reflecting the brand’s increasing regional diversity.
Hyatt's growth strategy in India aligns with what the company calls the “LLLLW” approach: loyalty, luxury, leisure, lifestyle, and wellness. "India is among Hyatt Hotels' top global growth markets, and we see tremendous potential for continued expansion in this region," said Sharma. This approach allows Hyatt to meet evolving guest preferences, solidifying India’s position as a key growth market for Hyatt globally.
The company's expansion goals are further supported by the ongoing growth in both domestic and international tourism in India. With a robust demand for luxury and wellness experiences, Hyatt remains optimistic about India's rising position in their global market rankings, with continued development and innovation on the horizon.

Hilton Hotels & Resorts is set to make a grand debut in Udaipur, the renowned 'City of Lakes,' by 2026, partnering with Elysian Hotels Private Limited to launch the first Hilton-branded property in the area. This move expands Hilton’s footprint in Rajasthan, where it already operates Hilton Jaipur and DoubleTree by Hilton Jaipur Amer, and follows the recent introduction of Waldorf Astoria and Conrad Hotels & Resorts in Jaipur.
The Hilton Udaipur will feature 118 elegantly designed rooms and suites, each set within lush gardens that celebrate Udaipur’s architectural and cultural heritage. Positioned to cater to both leisure travelers and the booming destination wedding market, the hotel will offer over 2,200 square meters of event space, including grand lawns and courtyards. Guests will also enjoy diverse dining options, an outdoor pool, a spa, a fitness center, and an executive lounge.
Strategically located near Udaipur’s iconic Lake Pichola and Fateh Sagar Lake, Hilton Udaipur will provide stunning views and convenient access to main transport hubs, further enhancing its appeal for tourists and wedding planners. Zubin Saxena, Senior Vice President and Regional Head for Hilton, South Asia, expressed excitement about the brand’s new venture, noting, “The signing of our first Hilton in Udaipur marks a significant growth milestone for us, aligning with our strategic plan to expand in India’s most treasured tourism locations.”
Ravindra Singh, Director of Elysian Hotels, echoed Saxena’s sentiment, emphasizing, “This venture, our first in hospitality, brings the globally celebrated Hilton brand to Udaipur. Hilton Udaipur will redefine hospitality standards in the lake precinct, contributing to the city’s growing allure as a preferred destination for tourism and weddings.”
Hilton's new Udaipur property joins its 55-strong South Asia portfolio, part of Hilton’s larger goal to grow its presence to 75 hotels in the region. With Udaipur’s unmatched charm as the 'Venice of the East,' this latest Hilton addition aims to set new standards in hospitality while adding to the city’s appeal as a prime tourism and wedding destination.
In a powerful show of solidarity, Crowne Plaza New Delhi Mayur Vihar joined hands with Dharamshila Narayana Hospital to champion Global Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This heartfelt initiative brought attention to the importance of early detection and community support for those affected by breast cancer. With the hotel’s facade illuminated in vibrant pink, the event resonated as a beacon of hope throughout the community.
The two-day event featured not only the stunning pink lighting but also a captivating laser show that conveyed essential breast cancer awareness messages, blending artistry with impactful messaging. Dr. Kanika Sood Sharma, Director & Clinical Lead - Radiation Oncology at Dharamshila Narayana Hospital, led an engaging health awareness session. Attendees learned about self-examination techniques, risk factors, and treatment advancements. Reflecting on the initiative’s success, Dr. Sharma shared, "The turnout and engagement we witnessed over these two days were truly heartening. By combining visual spectacle with educational content, we were able to reach a diverse audience and spark important conversations about breast health. Our hope is that this event will lead to increased awareness and, ultimately, save lives through early detection."
Ms. Veenu Rastogi, Area Director of Sales and Marketing IHG South West Asia and DOSM at Crowne Plaza Mayur Vihar, expressed pride in the hotel’s role in this initiative. “At Crowne Plaza Mayur Vihar, we believe in extending our responsibilities beyond hospitality. By engaging our staff, guests, and the community, we are cultivating a collective commitment to breast cancer awareness and prevention. Our collaboration with Dharamshila Narayana Hospital reflects our strategic approach to corporate social responsibility, where impactful partnerships can foster meaningful change.”
The initiative gained significant traction on social media, with attendees sharing their experiences using hashtags like #BreastCancerAwareness, #PinkOctober, and #LightUpPink, further amplifying the campaign’s reach and impact.
