With its blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and rising industrial ecosystem, Udupi presents a unique opportunity. Citadines Udupi reflects our commitment to bringing world-class hospitality experiences to India’s emerging destinations, while strengthening our presence in the southern market.”
Adding to this, Mr. Sudharman Shetty, Director, SKS Sunshine, noted, “We are proud to partner with The Ascott Limited for our first project in India under the Citadines brand. Udupi is our home, and this collaboration allows us to combine our hospitality legacy with Ascott’s global expertise. Together, we aim to make Citadines Udupi a preferred choice for travellers seeking the warmth of coastal Karnataka along with modern comforts.”
With this project, Ascott further strengthens its presence across India, where it already operates and develops properties in Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, and Goa. Its Karnataka portfolio includes Oakwood Whitefield Bengaluru and upcoming projects in Bengaluru’s Electronic City.
The addition of Citadines Udupi highlights Ascott’s focus on coastal and industrial corridors while aligning with its commitment to sustainability and responsible hospitality. Udupi’s recognition as a Blue Flag-certified beach destination underscores this direction, supporting Karnataka’s tourism development vision.
