Marriott to add 24 new hotels by 2012

Luxury hotel chain Marriott International will open 24 new properties in India over the next three years. The company, which largely operates through management contracts, has sealed the deal for the properties with real estate developers.

Some of these are regional players, like K Raheja Corporation (Mumbai), Salgaonkar (Goa), Viceroy Hotels (Hyderabad) and Panchshil Realty (Pune).

Marriott will launch six properties this year. Of these, the Courtyard Marriott in Pune will be the first to open. Subsequently, four more Courtyard-branded properties would come up in Ahmedabad, Gurgaon, Hyderabad and Mumbai. The sixth would be operated under the Marriott brand. In all, the company intends to have 14 hotels operating under the Courtyard brand.

The hospitality major currently has six properties in Mumbai, Goa, Hyderabad and Chennai and operates through five different brands, including Marriott, JW Marriott, Courtyard, Renaissance and Marriott Executive Apartments.

Rajeev Menon, Marriott International, Inc’s area vice-president for India, Malaysia, Maldives and Pakistan, said, “Our focus for expansion will be pan-India. We have signed up for properties for 24 hotels and we are in discussions with our real estate partners for further additions.”

The five Courtyard-branded properties, which will be operational this year, are in Ahmedabad (150 rooms, in August), Gurgaon (200 rooms, month yet to be finalised), Hyderabad (164 rooms, in October), Pune (153 rooms, in May) and Mumbai (340 rooms, in December).

Recently, a number of international hotel companies — like MGM Mirage Hospitality, Wyndham Hotel Group, Langham Hotel International, Corinthia Hotels & Resorts, Jumeriah Group, Movenpick Hotels & Resorts, Swissotel Hotels & Resorts and Hampshire Hotels & Resorts — either indicated their plans to enter India, or made announcements about expansion.

However, a significant drop in tourist inflows into the country, following the economic slowdown and also due to the threat from terrorism, has eroded the margins of most of the top hotel operating companies in India.

In addition, due to the financial meltdown, many international hotel companies were apprehensive about launching newer properties in developed as well as emerging markets. In India alone, plans of launching about 50 new properties were shelved.

“Typically, hotels are constructed over a period of 3-4 years. So our properties, which began construction 2-3 years ago, will open for operation according to their earlier schedule. Like everyone else, we too have been impacted by the slowdown. But our plans are still on track,” said Menon.

Star hotels Asked to boost Security

HYDERABAD: The City police has advised the star hotels to strengthen their security arrangements by engaging the services of ex-servicemen and Special Protection Force (SPF) as security personnel. Officials of the City Security Wing (CSW) held a meeting with the security managers of star hotels to beef up their security systems in the wake of terrorist attacks. The meeting was attended by more than 40 managers of different hotels.“The managements of the hotels are advised to engage ex-army personnel for security with firearms to retaliate in case of armed attack. Armed police will be provided on payment,” the CSW officials said.The managements were asked to install security gadgets like closed circuit cameras, door frame metal detectors, baggage scanners and also deployment of a full-fledged bomb disposal squad with sniffer dogs on their own. In case of emergencies, they were asked to create escape routes for evacuation, a public address system fitted in each room to alert the guests in case of emergency. A mock blast was demonstrated and the managements were shown samples of various explosives.

Hotel majors' plans unshaken despite downturn

In spite of the recession, international hotel chains are not holding back their investments in India. For example, Vikram 'Sant' Chatwal, chairman and chief executive of Hampshire Hotels, has said he is looking to invest Rs5,000 crore by 2012-13 in hotel properties in Kochi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Jaipur, Kolkata and Hyderabad.

Europe's Movenpick Hotels & Resorts also wants to manage 15 hotels in India by 2015, according to a Moneycontrol report. Swissotel Hotels & Resorts and Corinthia Hotels, along with US-based Berggruen Hotels, plan five mid-priced hotels under the Keys brand in Tier I and II cities, with an investment of $21 million.

MGM Mirage Hospitality, HK's Shama Group, Langham Hotels International, and the UAE-based Jumeirah plan to service 136 upscale room apartments in November in Bangalore.

Existing chains too are going ahead with expansion plans. France-based Accor Hospitality is to introduce nearly 10,000 rooms. Chicago-based Global Hyatt Corporation also has major expansion plans for India.

Tourism Secretary Sujit Banerjee says India needs additional 150,000 rooms, of which 100,000 rooms should be in the budget category.

According to hospitality consultant HVS, international and domestic hotels plan to build at least 114,000 rooms in India, but only 47,000 rooms are actually under construction.

Chatwal too pointed out that India is still facing huge shortage of rooms, and the economic downturn presents an opportunity, as the cost of development and construction is lower.

Task Force personnel expose lax security in Hyderabad hotels

According to the Times of India, Task Force decoy teams were deployed to check security measures adopted by star category hotels in Hyderabad, post the Mumbai terror attacks. The teams successfully managed to enter the Marriott, Taj Krishna and Grand Kakatiya properties armed with fire-arms, sharp weapons and gelatin sticks.

The Task Force personnel drove up in private cars and entered the hotel’s restaurants; the security personnel at the properties neglected to frisk them. After the exercise, the security head of each hotel was contacted and informed of the security breaches on their respective properties. The police commissioner will receive a report regarding the same.

Parsvnath Hotel at Hyderabad gets '5 Star' approval

Parsvnath Hotels Ltd. a subsidiary of Parsvnath Developers Limited (PDL), India’s leading real estate and infrastructure company, has received 5 star category project approval from Ministry of Tourism, Government of India for its hotel project at Hyderabad. The construction of the hotel is undertaken by Parsvnath Hotels Limited which is expected to be operational by late 2011.

Sprawling over an area of approximately 11063.68 sq. meters, the total plot area would offer a judicious blend of Shopping Mall, Office Complexes and a Five Star category Hotel. The hotel comprising of 186 rooms offers coffee shop, multi cuisine and specialty restaurants, a bar and a few boutique shops coupled with all amenities of a five star hotel. The hotel is strategically located in the Rajiv Gandhi Circle at Kukatpally, Hyderabad. Being situated in close vicinity of Secundrabad Railway Station and mere 35 kms away from Shamshabad Airport, the hotel project ensures easy commuting via road, rail and air ways.

Speaking at the occasion, Mr. Deepak Mowar, Vice President - Hotels said “Hyderabad, the capital city of Andhra Pradesh, known for its rich history, culture and architecture representing its unique character as a meeting point for North and South India. The city being a modern hub of Information Technology, ITES, and Biotechnology has always been a preferred tourist destination and convention centre. This huge influx of fluctuating population has led to burgeoning demand for qualitative place which addresses the leisure as well as business activities of the visitors. Our project in Hyderabad bridges this gap by providing all the amenities under one roof.”

The proximity to Hi-tech city- the 10 storied cylindrical building housing Indian and multinational IT companies would further enhance hotel’s demand.

Global hotel majors still bullish on India

Mumbai, Jan. 23 The world could be in the grip of the most severe slowdown in recent times but this has not deterred global hotel players from announcing new projects in India.

A key reason could be cooling land prices, coupled with the need for quality hotel rooms in the country, say analysts.

“International hotel majors have a long-term view of India. Most properties will become operational only around 2012 by which time the market is expected to bounce back. Most of them also have enough cash to buy land,” Mr Rashes Shah, analyst with brokerage ICICI Direct, told Business Line.

Over the last few years, many hospitality projects were announced by local real-estate companies. Most of them are, however, in the midst of a tight cash trap and are keen on exiting as these projects involve long gestation periods.

Window of opportunity

According to an earlier estimate by ICICI Direct, 20-30 per cent of additional room capacity planned by 2010 will be deferred by two-three years. This has opened a window of opportunity for foreign players in terms of expanding their presence. A slew of developers are ready to part with unfinished, partially finished or recently commissioned hotel sites. Some of these are distress sales, said Mr Julian Groom of Mumbai-based DB Hospitality, which is a partner of Le Meridien and recently signed an agreement with Japan’s JAL Hotels.

The US-based Hilton Hotels Corporation announced the launch of its upscale brand, Doubletree, in India. It signed a long-term management pact with Indian real-estate property developer JMD last week for a 182-room hotel in Gurgaon scheduled to open in 2010.

Global Hyatt Corporation also made public recently its intention to add 20 properties in India over the next four years. Its strategy is to penetrate Tier 2 and 3 cities apart from the traditional leading markets.

Six of these hotels will sport its upper mid-market brand, Hyatt Place. The ones spread across India are the Hyatt Regency, Grand Hyatt and Park Hyatt. “During the last year, we have completed more hotel transactions in India than at any other time in our 25-year history,” said Mr Steve Haggerty, global head of real-estate and development for Chicago-based Global Hyatt Corporation.

Marriott, IHG plans

Marriott International Inc is also sticking to its plan of opening seven hotels this calendar, which translates into 1,561 new rooms. These include JW Marriott Hotel in Bangalore, Marriott Hotel & Convention Center in Pune and five of its mid-market brand Courtyard(s) in Gurgaon, West Pune, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad and Mumbai. Another 14 (previously announced) hotels are expected to be commissioned by 2012.

InterContinental Hotels Group had announced development of 22 additional hotels within the next few years. These will be spread across its three brands — InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts and Holiday Inn Hotels & Resorts.

IHG has a current portfolio of 13 hotels in major business and tourist hubs across the country. With this recent initiative, IHG will add 5,000 rooms to its existing number of 2,400.

Gas shortage hitting hotels hard

Bangalore : Hotels and restaurants
found it difficult to manage with the shortage of cooking gas, as well as reduced supply of onions
and potatoes.
HOTELS: Hoteliers said that there was a severe shortage of LPG cylinders. The oil companies' strike made it difficult to run the generators. Hotel sources said it also affected outdoor catering. Lunch is served for around 2-3 lakh employees in the city. As fewer vehicles were plying, there was a delay in delivery.

Krishna Rao of Bangalore Hotels Association said many hotels are finding it difficult to cope with the gas shortage. There was also inadequate supply of some essential commodities like rice and tur dal in RMC Yard. If it continues till Saturday, it will seriously affect the hoteliers, he said.

POULTRY: The supply of poultry was unaffected. Mohammad Fazaullah Sharif, MD, Karnataka Co-operative Poultry Federation, said that there is no hike in prices. Vegetables, poultry and milk are being allowed to enter the city.

VEGETABLES: The supply of potatoes and onions was hit as these come from other states. One vegetable supplier said that there was only 50% supply of these items. Potatoes come from Hyderabad and Pune, and onions are procured from Maharashtra, Pune and other places.

The prices too shot up -- potato was at Rs 15 per kg (Rs 12 earlier), onions cost Rs 28 per kg, tomatoes has jumped from Rs 12 to Rs 15 a kg.

The supply of other vegetables was not affected and prices remained the same. From the APMC Yard, vegetables were loaded into three-wheelers and other private transport vehicles.

HOSPITALS: Hospital authorities heaved a sigh of relief that the oil company strike ended as they were worried about running generators and sending ambulances for emergencies. Assistant administrator of St Martha's Hospital James Saqueira said that it had requested KPTCL to provide power. "At present, there is no problem and we can manage to run the generator and ambulances," he said.
