Pride Hotels Group is embarking on a significant expansion to tap into India's flourishing spiritual tourism market, planning to open new properties at various pilgrimage sites across the country. This strategic move is designed to accommodate the increasing influx of domestic and international travellers embarking on spiritual journeys, with the tourism sector experiencing a notable 40% growth, as reported by The Economic Times.
The expansion will see the launch of Pride Resort Ambaji and Pride Comfort Dwarka in Gujarat, alongside planned developments in key spiritual hubs such as Haldwani, Puri, Ranakpur, Rishikesh, and Rudraprayag. These locations have been carefully selected to meet the unique needs of modern pilgrims, blending spiritual significance with the comforts and amenities of modern hospitality.
Pride Hotels Group, which currently operates in 28 locations nationwide, has set an ambitious goal to introduce 40 new hotels, enriching its portfolio across various market segments. The group's diverse brand offerings cater to a wide range of travellers: Pride Plaza targets the luxury segment, Pride Hotels offers upscale services, Pride Resorts provides leisure and vacation experiences, and Biznotel by Pride is tailored to meet the needs of the smart business traveller.
Senior Vice-President of Pride Hotels Group, Atul Upadhyay, emphasised the company's commitment to faith-based tourism, stating, "Our expansion into the realm of faith-based tourism underscores our commitment to excellence and our responsiveness to the changing desires of today’s pilgrims."
The announcement comes on the heels of the successful launch of Pride Biznotel Canopus Digha in West Bengal last year, marking the brand's debut in the coastal town. The property boasts a range of amenities, including a fitness centre, a swimming pool, and 1,500ft² of meeting space, further showcasing Pride Hotels' commitment to enhancing the travel experience for guests across India.
This expansion into pilgrimage sites reflects a growing demand for sustainable and culturally enriching travel options, highlighting Pride Hotels Group's innovative approach to catering to the evolving preferences of today's travellers. As the company extends its footprint into these sacred destinations, it aims to offer unparalleled hospitality experiences that resonate with the spiritual and cultural heritage of each location.

Sometimes the best way to celebrate Women's Day is also the simplest, just stop, breathe, and give yourself a proper break. And Clarks Exotica Convention Resort & Spa is making that very easy to do this 8th March.
The resort is rolling out special Women's Day spa offers that are genuinely good value, the kind that make it hard to say no, whether you're treating yourself or gifting someone a little moment of calm.
Set in peaceful, serene surroundings, Clarks Exotica is already the kind of place that makes you exhale the moment you arrive. This Women's Day, they're leaning into that with curated spa experiences at prices that are hard to beat.
Here's what's on offer:
Foot Massage and Massage Chair, Whether it's a quick midday reset or a thoughtful gift for a woman who deserves a little extra care these offers tick both boxes without burning a hole in your pocket.
The resort's setting does the rest of the work. Stepping away from the usual rush, even for just an hour, can do a lot and having a calm, beautiful space to do it in makes the whole experience feel that much more special.
This Women's Day, Clarks Exotica is keeping it simple and meaningful — good care, honest prices, and a genuine invitation to slow down.
Some celebrations don't need to be loud or over the top, sometimes the best ones are just good food, good people, and a rooftop with a view. And that's exactly the kind of Women's Day Sector 144 in JP Nagar is putting together.
The Bengaluru restaurant is marking the occasion with a specially curated Sunday brunch that keeps things relaxed, flavourful, and genuinely fun. Guests can pick from a thoughtful à la carte selection of dishes and refreshing beverages, all while soaking in the breezy rooftop ambience that the place is known for. It's the kind of afternoon that doesn't rush you, just lets you settle in, eat well, and enjoy the company around you.
The idea behind the brunch goes beyond just a meal. It's a small but heartfelt tribute to creativity, community, and the everyday warmth that women bring into the lives of those around them. Whether you're coming with your best friend, your mother, your colleagues, or just treating yourself the vibe is welcoming, the food is comforting, and the atmosphere is everything a lazy Sunday should feel like.
Comforting favourites sit alongside more contemporary plates on the menu, with drinks to match. The rooftop setting adds a light, open feel to the whole experience lively enough to feel festive, but laid-back enough that you can actually slow down and savour the moment.
More than anything, it's about togetherness shared stories, joyful moments, and the kind of afternoon you'll want to repeat. Sector 144 has always had a warm, easy hospitality about it, and this Women's Day brunch feels like a natural extension of that.
Here are the details:
If you're looking for a genuinely good way to spend Women's Day in Bengaluru, this one's worth showing up for.

Suba Hotels Limited just made its third move in Ayodhya, and it's a big one. The hospitality group has opened a brand-new Click Collection Hotel in the holy city, adding to its two already-running properties, Quality Inn Rama and Click Hotel Narayana, Ayodhya.
The new hotel sits close to the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, which makes it a natural pick for pilgrims visiting the city. It's also a short distance from Hanuman Garhi Temple and the Saryu Ji Aarti site, two other spots that draw large crowds of devotees. Guests even get a complimentary shared drop service to the temple gate, which is a thoughtful touch for those travelling for religious purposes.
Talking about the launch, Managing Director Mansur Mehta shared, "The city's evolving hospitality landscape presents a unique opportunity for the company to make steady progress in this important temple town and pilgrimage destination. We see significant business potential here, and this expansion reflects our commitment to delivering quality service and warm hospitality. Our existing two properties in Ayodhya have been performing strongly, and, encouraged by this positive response, we decided to further strengthen our presence in the city."
The group's CEO, Mubeen Mehta, also pointed out that this isn't just about Ayodhya, it's part of a larger plan. "We have been consciously expanding our presence in religious destinations. We already have a strong footprint in Varanasi and Vindhyachal, both prominent pilgrimage centres. With rising demand in this segment, we see tremendous potential in further strengthening our presence across key pilgrimage destinations."
The hotel has 48 rooms spread across three categories, all designed to keep comfort and practicality in mind, especially for families and pilgrims who need a reliable place to rest. Rooms come equipped with air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, a tea/coffee maker, minibar, LED smart TV, and an in-room safe, among other amenities.
For food, the hotel has Cinnamon, a vegetarian restaurant that serves a range of Indian dishes, keeping in mind the preferences of pilgrims visiting the city. The property also has modern banqueting facilities for group needs.
With Ayodhya growing fast as a pilgrimage and tourism hub, Suba Hotels seems well-placed to ride that wave and this third property adds another solid layer to their presence in the city.
