We did a story on Mumbai, Star hotels stirred up as season starts sometime back.

soumya said...

i like this type of informations thank you for all

i will like to know about the kolkata position

Soumya, I am happy to say we have been able to get Kolkata position from a senior hotelier based in Kolkata.

Here is what we were told...

Demand expected to grow by 20% this year and 25% the year after. No new supply in the city until early 2009, when Taj Gateway enters the city (hopefully) with 200 rooms.

The major supply addition will be in East Kolkata, with Marriott ( more, Jobs), Hilton, Taj and Holiday Inn, all coming up in that area.

However, Marriott and Taj have declared these properties will be in the economy range (courtyard by Marriott and Gateway by Taj).

Holiday Inn, would anyways position themselves as an economy hotel. Hence the five star deluxe market will really not see any major increase in Supply, with the big four continuing to be the major players. The Grand Great eastern is scheduled for opening third quarter next year and it remains to be seen how this would impact the city. There’s yet no news of their sales teams hitting the leisure market with rates for next winters.

The MBD Group has sold off the airport hotel in Kolkata for an undisclosed sum after running it for about two years. The new owner of the prime property is the Noida-based Rs 1,200 crore Dharampal Satyapal (DS) Group.



The MBD Group, which has expertise in the publishing business, had acquired the 4-star deluxe hotel located close to the Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose airport from India Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC) for Rs 20.15 crore in July 2002, following the government's disinvestments policy.

MBD had closed down the hotel in 2004 citing renovation work, after all its 281 employees agreed to accept the voluntary retirement scheme offered by the company. The new owner of the property — food and beverage major DS Group — has conceived grand plans to construct a budget hotel, a 5-star hotel and a snazzy convention centre in the 7.5-acre premises, which is currently awaiting clearance from the government. DS Group is likely to make an announcement on its plans late next month.

Industry sources pointed out that MBD had been struggling to run the hotel right from the beginning, mainly because of its relative inexperience in running hotels, which ultimately prompted the group to sell it off. MBD officials were unavailable for comments but as per market estimates, the land alone would have fetched MBD Rs 50 crore. "The assets would have cost them another Rs 50 crore," said a valuation expert.

When contacted, DS Group's vice-president corporate communication Ms Bhavna Sood confirmed the development but refused to disclose the sum it paid for the hotel. "We have huge plans for the Kolkata property but things are still at a planning stage. We will make an announcement the moment we get the necessary clearance from the government," Ms Sood said.

The DS Group has recently made a foray into the hospitality segment with its newly set up arm DS Hotels Ltd and has upcoming projects lined up in Jaipur, Udaipur, Shimla, Manali and Goa, among others. As per plans, the DS Group will project the Kolkata property as a "destination centre" with the project up and running by 2010. "We are looking at a new 5-star brand and will appoint management contracts to international partners. There is a lot of potential for doing business there," Ms Sood said.
