“Operating performance in India is strong despite the crisis in West Asia. We have an incredible pipeline and that is building up nicely,” Bhushan said.
On Friday, it opened Roswyn, A Morgans Original brand hotel in Mumbai - the first such property under Ennismore which houses Accor’s lifestyle brands. The Roswyn, which is situated near the airport, comprises 109 suites that measure 80-175 metres. The suites are priced upwards of ₹35,000-40,000 a night.
New Projects
Bhushan said there is a very big market for different hospitality segments in India and the company is in active negotiations to introduce its other lifestyle brands in the country. A 149-keys hotel under the Hoxton brand will come up in Bengaluru in November.
In India, Accor has 74 hotels in operation and 60 others in pipeline. Globally, the France-headquartered chain runs 5,800 plus hotels in 110 countries. Ennismore has over 200 hotels under its umbrella.

The launch underscores our commitment in delivering distinctive experiences that resonate with the modern traveller,” said Ranju Alex, CEO, Accor, South Asia.
Nitin Chhatwal, Managing Director of Shrem Airport Hotels which has developed the Roswyn said hospitality market is evolving with demand coming from both families and corporates. “We are the market leader in pricing.
