An aggressive Indian expansion for Starwood

The rapid growth of India’s economy is seeing investment in many sectors, and the hospitality industry is no exception. Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide is making sure its hotel brands are not left behind in the development rush, with announcements of new buildings going up Kolkata, Pune and Hyderabad.

Pune is ready for a banking boom, and will be the location of the Westin Pune, Koreagon park. The IT hub Hyderabad will be home to the Westin Hyderabad, Mindspace, and the Westin Kolkata, Rajarhat will be Starwood’s first hotel to find a home in the Kolkata region.

President of Starwood Hotels and Resorts for Asia Pacific Miguel Ko commented, “Westin’s new hotels in Hyderabad, Pune and Kolkata further accelerate our plans to become one of the most recognizable brands in India, both in gateway cities and emerging commercial centers. The Westin promise to invigorate and renew guests during their stay will undoubtedly appeal to international guests who have traveled a long way to reach the bustling economic hubs of India.”
