The hotels will be located in Chennai, Bengaluru, Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi, and will operate under Marriott’s brands including Fairfield by Marriott, JW Marriott, Courtyard by Marriott and The Ritz-Carlton.

“With this signing, Brigade reinforces its nearly 15-year partnership with Marriott, bringing the total to eight hotels under Marriott’s management, representing 1,388 keys,” BHV said in a release.

Project timelines include:

Courtyard by Marriott, Chennai World Trade Center (45 keys) – expected to open in FY27.
Fairfield by Marriott, Bengaluru International Airport (224 keys) – expected in FY28.
Fairfield by Marriott, Bengaluru Brigade Valencia (151 keys) – expected in FY28.
JW Marriott, OMR Chennai (250 keys) – expected in FY30.
Ritz-Carlton Vaikom Island, Kerala (70 villas) – expected in FY30.
Thiruvananthapuram Marriott Hotel World Trade Center (200 keys) – expected in FY30.

Rajeev Menon, President – Asia Pacific (excluding China) at Marriott International, said: “Our growth strategy focuses on being present where our guests want us to be. This agreement underscores our long-standing relationship with Brigade Hotel Ventures, and leveraging our diverse brand portfolio, we are confident these developments will meet the needs of travellers across segments.”

Marriott, which currently operates over 155 hotels with more than 29,000 rooms across 40 Indian cities, has been scaling aggressively. Last month, it signed an agreement with Blackstone-backed Ventive Hospitality to add six new properties in Varanasi, Mundra, Pune and Navi Mumbai by 2030.

Earlier this year, Marriott International president and CEO Anthony Capuano said he expects India to become the chain’s third-largest market within five years, adding that the group will continue to expand in luxury, upscale and value segments to cater to both international and domestic travellers.
