Industry Snapshot - Hotel Industry in India
   
 

The Indian Hospitality Sector is witnessing one of its rare sustained growth trends. Hotel industry is inextricablelinked to the tourism industry and the growth in the Indian tourism industry has fuelled the growth of Indian Hotel Industry.

According to the latest Tourism Satellite Accounting (TSA) research, released by the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), the demand for travel and tourism in India is expected to grow by 8.2 % between 2010 and 2019. India's travel and tourism sector is expected to be the second largest employer in the world. The report forecasts India to get more capital investment in the travel and tourism sector and is projected to become the fifth fastest growing business travel destination from 2010 through 2020. Shortage of 100,000 guest rooms in the country has been reported.

In past few years, an increase in international visitors as well as domestic travelers there has been an increase in fuelling the demand for more hotels and rooms across India.

In the recent years we have seen many international brands like Radisson, Marriott, Meridian, Sheraton, Hyatt, Holiday inn etc. have set up hotels in India whereas new brands like Satinwoods, Banana tree, Hampton inns, Scandium by Hilton etc. are banking big in India to set-up hotels by either tying up with domestic brands or directly.


Interarch Structural Steel for Hotels
     
  Interarch Steel structure is an ideal solution for hotel construction, as in today urban infrastructure there is space limitation for construction.

Hotels can be built as per architectural design for optimized energy requirements such as natural cooling, solar gains or natural day light.

Hotels incorporate a high level of building services which can be easily interfaced within our system; air conditioning systems ducts, flooring, electric power plants for essential facilities, fire protection system and all other mechanical and electric services. Varieties of exterior and interior finish interfaces can be offered for the quality of hotel rooms and utilities. Sunken and wet areas, building service shafts can be easily designed in our structural system.
