Hotel Industry after Commonwealth Games 2010

Hotel Industry after Commonwealth Games 2010

Our country, especially Delhi is preparing fast for the Commonwealth games in 2101. I was just going through the Newspaper and saw that the DDA is auctioning hotel sites in Delhi in September 2006. These hotel sites are in Jasola, Dwarka, Shalimar Bagh, Wazirpur and many more sites are there. 10 sites will be auctioned in September itself.

The study by these newspapers says that if the Hotel site is auctioned for Rs. 400 Crores and the hotel building of 400 rooms will approximately need 600 Crores that makes the total to be 1000 Crores. In that case the Room Rate would be Rs. 25000/- per room per day just for breaking even!!!!!! Strange to here right!!!!

Now, what I think is that …. OK, people coming to visit the Commonwealth games might pay this amount for a room.

BUT…..

After the commonwealth games are over, what will happen with these hotels? Instead odf staying in a room for 25000/- bucks at Josola or Shalimar Bagh, I would prefer to stay at 10000/- bucks at the TAJ at Dhaula Kuan.

The Monk and Axis restaurants at Galaxy Hotel

I had a meeting with a client today at Galaxy hotel in Sector 15 Gurgaon near to me house. The good thing is that I never new that I had suck a beautiful restaurant nearby with good food too. The bad thing is that it’s one of the costliest in my experience. Three glasses of juice, 2 coffees a grilled sandwitch and a corn pakoda costed me approx 1700 bucks. This is damn costly. I could have visited the 32nd milestone which belongs to the same owner (I think) and is comparatively much cheaper.

Which is the best brand?

Which is the best brand? I went through a business magazine today, its about the best brands in India. What they have done is that they have decided the top brands without segregating the industry. Like they have given that Maruti is No 1 brand in INDIA and follows, Lux, Times of India and many more companies. Don’t you think that there has to be a proper way of segregation of each brand? I personally feel that brands should be ranked in their own Industry. I cannot compete the brand called “SKODA” with “INTEL” but I can compare “SKODA” with “MERCEDES”. Well, I

Bhopal : the next Gurgaon Duhh

I saw an advertisement in the newspaper today and the ad says “Invest in the next Gurgaon”. I talked to the concerned person and he told me that the city he’s taking about is Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh. This person says that in 18 months, the price will get doubled and we don’t kow how?

I had an opportunity to visit the Bar and its good. Overall it’s an above average hotel coz I think that there are many improvements that

RIL Vs ADAG: This is not a good sign

I just read the news in the ET that both these groups have separately approached an entertainment company in the Jammu and Kashmir for buy its stakes. Both the brother are interested in purchasing this group for their expansion in the Entertainment industry. I an not pleased to hear that. I don’t know if this is their corporate expansion strategy or just the war in their groups. If this is a strategy then, nothing like it. But if this is a war, then I feel that these companies will end each other one day. I personally feel that both the

Wet n Wild Resort in Gurgaon

Wet n Wild Resort in Gurgaon Wet n wild resort is one of the oldest properties in Gurgaon. Me and my family went there for dinner for birthday celebrating birthdays of my mother and wife. The Wet area closes before 8 PM so we could not enjoy that :( . But the restaurant is fine. They have approximately 20 tables for dining and they serve food as well as wines in that. I have stayed in their hotel rooms too on the first floor. The rooms are also nicely designed and the best things to see are the bathrooms. Well designed
