International hospitality major Radisson Group has announced plans to open eight new hotels across Uttar Pradesh, reflecting the state’s growing tourism potential.

Speaking at the inauguration of the group’s five-star property, Radisson Prayagraj, Yogendra Agnihotri, Senior Regional Director (Operations), South Asia, said the move aligns with the rapid rise in both domestic and international visitor numbers.

He noted that the group witnessed remarkable demand during the last Maha Kumbh Mela and is preparing to launch a mid-segment hotel under its Park Inn brand next year to cater to the expanding travel market.

The expansion underscores Radisson’s commitment to strengthening its footprint in northern India, with Uttar Pradesh emerging as one of the key tourism and pilgrimage hubs in the country.
