Sinclairs Hotels Ltd. has marked its first foray into North India with the acquisition of two new properties in Udaipur, Rajasthan: Sinclairs Palace Retreat Udaipur and Sinclairs Udaipur. Announced at the Board of Directors meeting on August 9th, 2024, this expansion signals a significant growth for the hotel chain.
Sinclairs Palace Retreat Udaipur is an expansive heritage-style property spread across 5 acres on Haldighati Road, approximately 35 kilometers from Udaipur. With 90 rooms and suites, 5 cottages, a 7000 sq ft ornate banquet hall, conference facilities, and several terraces for events, the property is well-equipped to host weddings, large conferences, and family holidays. The resort also features a multi-cuisine vegetarian restaurant, a bar, a swimming pool, and a children's park. Located near the renowned Shrinathji Temple, Nathdwara, and the historic Haldighati, Sinclairs Palace Retreat is poised to become a top destination for weddings and leisure.
Sinclairs Udaipur, situated in the bustling RK Circle area of Udaipur, offers 56 well-appointed rooms. The property includes a large banquet hall, a multi-cuisine restaurant, a bar, and ample parking space, making it ideal for corporate events, individual travelers (FITs), and wedding groups. Operations are expected to commence in October 2024.
The addition of these two properties increases the Sinclairs chain’s total number of keys to 598, representing a 33% growth in its portfolio. This expansion is anticipated to significantly boost the company's revenues and profits in the coming years.
Future Expansion Plans:
Sinclairs has ambitious plans to further strengthen its presence in the region. The company aims to create a cluster of 5 to 6 properties in Rajasthan, with a target of increasing the total key count to 1000 over the next three years. Additionally, Sinclairs is exploring opportunities to develop greenfield projects to expand its portfolio further.
Financial Performance:
The company also announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30th, 2024. Sinclairs Hotels Ltd. reported a Total Income of Rs 1943.15 lakh, compared to Rs 2183.03 lakh in the corresponding period last year. The EBIDTA for the quarter stood at Rs 1032.23 lakh (compared to Rs 1287.07 lakh), and the Profit after Tax was Rs 684.81 lakh, down from Rs 847.63 lakh in the previous year's corresponding quarter. The decline in revenues and profits was attributed to a decrease in tourist and corporate travel due to extended election dates and severe landslides in Sikkim and West Bengal, which led to prolonged road closures.

Udaipur welcomes a new luxury landmark as Wyndham Hotels & Resorts opens Wyndham Grand Udaipur Fatehsagar Lake, a lavish lakeside retreat set across 26 acres of scenic landscapes. Overlooking the Aravalli mountains and minutes from Fatehsagar Lake, the resort marks Wyndham’s flagship debut in India’s luxury space.
The grand opening saw an elegant gathering of hotel leaders, industry names and special guests. A traditional Rajasthani welcome set the tone—flower showers, tika and pag rituals, followed by vibrant Kachi Ghodi dancers and live regional music. With dusk settling over the hills, the celebration moved into curated culinary experiences that showcased Udaipur’s artistic and cultural charm.
“Wyndham Grand Udaipur Fatehsagar Lake represents a defining milestone in our India journey. This resort is a perfect blend of Rajasthan’s timeless charm and Wyndham’s global standards,” said Rahool Macarius, Market Managing Director – Eurasia, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.
The property mirrors Udaipur’s royal heritage, featuring 140 guestrooms and suites with Gokhda-style sit-outs, indulgent marble interiors and whirlpool bathtubs in select rooms. The upcoming Palace Wing will add 60 more rooms designed with an elevated heritage feel.
As a pure vegetarian resort, guests can enjoy Indian and global flavours at Pyaala, Shakahari and O Sian, each focusing on fresh, local ingredients.
The resort offers some of Udaipur’s most impressive event spaces, including:
One of the largest amphitheatres in the city
A lavish ballroom
Expansive Vintage Lawn for large gatherings under the night sky
For leisure, guests can unwind at the heated outdoor pool, indulge in wellness rituals at Zivaya Spa, or enjoy multiple sports—from tennis and badminton to cricket. Thoughtful services such as concierge support, childcare, butler service, bridal studios and even EV charging make stays seamless.
“Our goal was to create a space connected to the spirit of Udaipur, where mornings begin by the lake and evenings flow with warm Rajasthani hospitality,” the team shared.
With its blend of natural beauty, royal-inspired design and global comforts, Wyndham Grand Udaipur Fatehsagar Lake sets a fresh benchmark for luxury travel and celebrations in India’s beloved City of Lakes.
Atmosphere Core has introduced its fourth brand, ONE Atmosphere, marking its entry into the extended-stay space. The new brand is designed for modern travellers who prefer a flexible lifestyle, one that combines the comfort of home, the structure of a workspace, and the convenience of hotel services.
ONE Atmosphere will offer fully serviced apartments that bring together spacious layouts, branded amenities, seamless support and design-led interiors. These spaces aim to serve today’s work–live–travel pattern, giving guests a place that adapts to different routines and longer stays.
Speaking about the launch, Mr. Salil Panigrahi, Managing Director, Atmosphere Core, said, “As travel becomes more fluid and work becomes borderless, guests expect more than a hotel room, they expect a lifestyle solution, ONE Atmosphere is designed to meet this shift by offering a reliable model of flexible living that blends the warmth of home with the precision of hospitality.”
The design philosophy will focus on calm materials, efficient layouts and local art, creating warm and intuitive environments across locations. Each apartment will feel residential, supported quietly by hotel-style services in the background.
Built for long stays, relocations, holidays and hybrid travel, the brand will deliver a consistent ‘ONE Experience’, supported by a wide range of work, leisure and convenience amenities under the ‘ONE Promise’.
Highlighting the growth opportunity, Mr. Sandeep Ahuja, Managing Director, ONE Atmosphere, said the segment is expanding quickly but remains fragmented. He added that the brand aims to set a strong global benchmark by combining scale with dependable, high-quality experiences, drawing from Atmosphere Core’s proven operational strengths in the Maldives.
The upcoming pipeline includes urban, metropolitan and leisure destinations across South Asia, Southeast Asia and the Gulf, with more international markets being evaluated for future expansion.

Della Resorts & Adventure has unveiled its Christmas Festive Package for 2025, bringing the holiday season alive in a way that feels warm, thoughtful and pleasantly personal. The package offers a two-night stay, available for either 24–25 or 25–26 December, giving guests a simple but memorable festive escape.
The experience is designed around meaningful moments rather than extravagance, a stay that feels slow and unhurried, mornings that ease into a relaxed breakfast and an Adventure Day Pass that brings a playful spirit to the holiday. Guests can enjoy The Vegas Noelat, the resort’s annual Christmas production, and begin their evening at Café 24 with festive cocktails or mocktails that set the mood just right.
A Christmas Brunch becomes the highlight of the day, and every guest leaves with a traditional pudding, a nostalgic touch that adds to the charm of the celebration.
Children have their own world of December cheer with gingerbread decorating, a Santa Meet-and-Greet and curated activities designed just for them. For adults, the experience sits between a refreshing getaway and a soft festive reset, celebratory without being loud, joyful without being predictable.
The package is ideal for anyone wanting to step away from the city’s usual December rush and spend the holiday in a setting that feels warm, relaxed and a little extra special.
