Accor hotel Group to open second property in A'bad

Accor, a European hotel operator, is mulling to have another property in Ahmedabad soon. Accor has already launched its first property in Gujarat, Hotel Formule 1. The company said that the upcoming hotel could be any one of the seven to eight major brands that the group owns.

The group owns brands like Sofitel, Pullman, MGallery, Novotel, Suite Novotel, Mercure, Adagio, ibis, and Formule 1, which range from budget to luxury hotels. Accor has 19 hotels with 3,780 rooms and two convention centers in India.

Formule 1 is its low-cost brand. After opening a Formule1 in Greater Noida recently, the Ahmedabad property is the Group's second Formule 1 in India. It is all set to launch a third one in Pune next month and plans to have 15 Formule 1 hotels in India over the next few years.

The Group is looking at three or four more locations within Gujarat to set up the Accor range of hotels.
