CARLSON OPENS ITS 40TH HOTEL IN INDIA

Carlson Hotels recently opened its 40th property in India, a 107-room Park Plaza Coimbatore. This is Carlson’s sixth Park Plaza and 40th hotel in India, bringing the total number of rooms to 4,027. This latest addition reinforces Carlson’s position as the largest international hotel operator in India. “We believe that the secondary cities have great growth potential as a majority of them lack internationally branded quality accommodation. We are expanding rapidly in India and before the year ends, we will open another 6 properties in India,” said K.B. Kachru, Executive Vice President, Carlson Hotels, South Asia.
