Radisson Hotel Group

Radisson Hotel Group is stepping up its expansion across India’s key spiritual and pilgrimage destinations, tapping into the rising demand for organized hospitality in religious tourism hubs. The strategy reflects a broader shift in India’s travel landscape, where spiritual travel is increasingly blending with leisure and comfort-driven experiences. Improved infrastructure, higher disposable incomes and year-round tourist inflows have made these locations commercially attractive.

Radisson Hotel Group (RHG) has intensified its expansion strategy in India, achieving a key milestone of over 200 hotels across the country, with approximately 130 operational and 70 more in development. Over the past 18 months, the group has signed 59 new hotels and expanded into 47 additional cities, solidifying India’s position as one of its fastest-growing global markets.

Radisson Hotel Group, a global hospitality leader headquartered in Belgium, has set its sights on a major expansion in India, aiming to double its hotel portfolio over the coming years. With over 200 operational properties already, the group is focusing on inclusive, sustainable growth, particularly in Tier-II, Tier-III, and Tier-IV cities. The company plans to add 8,000 new rooms and create approximately 16,000 new jobs.

Radisson Hotel Group has announced a strategic expansion in Eastern India through the signing of three new hotel projects—two in Jharkhand and one in Odisha. The development will add approximately 400 rooms to its national portfolio and aligns with the group's broader vision of tapping into high-potential, underserved regions. With five operational properties and eight in the pipeline across East India, Radisson aims to strengthen its footprint in tier-2 and tier-3 cities, reinforcing its position as a dominant player in both established metro markets and emerging destinations.

Radisson Hotel Group has broadened its presence in India with the launch of five new properties in the first half of 2025, reinforcing its long-term commitment to the country’s rapidly evolving hospitality market. The new hotels are located in Jamshedpur, Yelahanka (Bengaluru), Koti (Shimla), Gaj (Punjab), and Prayagraj. This expansion highlights Radisson’s adaptive strategy tailored to India's diverse travel ecosystem, spanning industrial hubs, spiritual destinations, and emerging leisure hotspots.
