Hyatt Aims for 100 Properties in India

04 Nov 2024 CW Team

Hyatt Hotels has outlined an ambitious expansion plan to grow its presence in India to 100 properties over the next 5-6 years. Currently operating 41 hotels in the country, Hyatt seeks to capitalize on increasing tourism and business travel demand in India's rapidly growing hospitality market. This expansion strategy focuses on both luxury and mid-tier brands like Hyatt Place and Hyatt Regency, which have demonstrated strong appeal in Indian cities.

Hyatt's expansion is being driven by a combination of increased foreign tourist inflows and a rise in domestic travel, encouraged by India's expanding middle class and infrastructure improvements in travel connectivity. The hotel group is concentrating on major urban centers and high-growth secondary markets, aiming to establish properties in locations like Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, and Tier-II cities.

The planned investment and partnership strategies reflect Hyatt’s approach to grow through management contracts and selective ownership models, allowing for scalable growth without significant capital constraints. By 2030, India is expected to rank among Hyatt's largest markets globally, underscoring the company’s confidence in the Indian hospitality sector’s long-term potential. As global tourism recovers, Hyatt’s expansion aligns with broader market trends, positioning it to cater to a surge in demand for both business and leisure hospitality options in India.
