IHCL Expands Karnataka Presence with New Hotel

According to a company release, The Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), India’s largest hospitality firm, has signed a hotel in Mysore. This conversion project marks the debut of IHCL’s iconic Taj brand in the city.
Ms. Suma Venkatesh, Executive Vice President, Real Estate & Development, IHCL, highlighted Mysore’s evolving hospitality market and the significance of this expansion. She said, “Driven by growing presence of manufacturing and IT sectors, Mysore, an established leisure destination, is now fast becoming a diversified hospitality market. As a gateway to destinations like Coorg, Kabini, Bandipur and Ooty, it attracts a significant mix of domestic and international travellers. The signing of this hotel reflects our commitment to expanding the Taj brand in key markets across India. We are delighted to strengthen our partnership with DM South India Hospitality.”

Nestled in the foot of Chamundi Hills and overlooking the Mysore Palace, the 141-key Taj Mysore is a regal Indo-Sarcenic hotel that blends seamlessly into the old-world architecture of this historical city. Spread over 5.03 acres, the hotel is centrally located, adjacent to the Mall of Mysore and surrounded by views of a lush golf estate and the iconic Mysore Zoo. Guests can enjoy a variety of culinary experiences, including an all-day dining restaurant, bar, specialty restaurant, and lounge. Guests can indulge in wellness at the spa, gym, and swimming pool. Additionally, Taj Mysore features a spacious banqueting area of over 11,000 sq. ft., ideal for hosting corporate and social events.

Sushen Mohan Gupta, Director, DM South India Hospitality said, “We are delighted to grow our association with IHCL, India's true custodians of hospitality. Taj Mysore will cater to the growing demand for luxury hospitality. I am confident that the Taj Mysore will elevate the tourism potential of Mysore and truly curate distinctive experiences for our guests.”

Utkarsh Munot, DM South India Hospitality said, “IHCL’s iconic brand Taj truly embodies the luxuriously modern yet heritage charm of this property. I believe this partnership will help create lasting impressions in the minds of our guests.”

Recognised as Karnataka’s cultural capital, Mysore is steeped in history and heritage, famed for its palaces, monuments, and vibrant traditions. Attractions like Mysore Palace, Chamundi Hills, and Brindavan Gardens draw visitors from around the world.

With this addition, IHCL's Karnataka portfolio will expand to 23 hotels, including 10 under development.
