Oberoi Hotels Group, which includes the flagship brand Oberoi and more affordable Trident Hotels, has announced that it is expanding its portfolio across India. Oberoi Hotels’ expansion is expected in Goa, Tirupati and Visakhapatnam markets..
Oberoi Hotels’ Expansion
Vikram Oberoi, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Oberoi Group has announced that Oberoi Hotels will finally enter the highly lucrative Goa market while other states like Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh might also get an Oberoi. On the other hand, a Trident Hotel will soon open in Tirupati and Vishakhapatnam.
Mr. Oberoi adds that while Trident was initially focused on foreign and group travellers, post COVID, the focus has reshifted primarily on Indian travellers. Hence, the brand will undergo changes, like having bigger rooms and much more. Mr. Oberoi called on the government to launch an Incredible India 2.0 campaign to fulfil the goal of having about 10 crore tourists in India every year. Currently, that number stands at one crore.
