Delhi NCR is set to see the highest number of rooms about 17,550, followed by Mumbai with 10,200 and Bangalore with 9,400.
Akshay Kulkarni, Regional Director of Hospitality of South and South East Asia, Cushman & Wakefield pointed out that Indian hospitality sector has been experiencing strong demand from foreign as well as domestic tourists. The new rooms will be added by concentrating growth areas around airports, commercial and industrial corridors and SEZs.
Chennai hotels have 64% occupancy level, registering highest in six top cities of India. While, Hyderabad has been a wilting market for hotel performance, due to some internal disturbances in the region.
