Hospitality main, Radisson Inns, identified for its enterprise lodges in India, is planning to extend its leisure choices within the nation below its model, Radisson People. “We see a chance to develop in each leisure and enterprise section. We now have renewed appreciation for home leisure and home journey,” says Katerina Giannouka, President (Asia-Pacific), Radisson Lodge Group.

Giannouka says India’s rising urge for food to discover outdoor, mountains and lesser-known elements of the nation has led Radisson to deal with home area of interest segments, below the Radisson People model. The technique going ahead can be not simply to cater to home leisure demand, but additionally popularise Indian leisure locations the world over. “Inbound demand is so low. Solely 8% of resort demand is worldwide leisure. We are going to begin working to usher in worldwide leisure demand too,” says Giannouka. The pandemic, in keeping with her, has blurred the traces between enterprise and leisure. As lodges opened put up the lockdown, nearly 85% of the resort chain’s occupancy got here throughout the weekends and that was largely leisure.
