Supporting the state government’s move to introduce the new ‘Karnataka Tourism Policy 2020-2025’ to create inclusive socio-cultural growth and generate economic benefits for the people of Karnataka, OYO Hotels & Homes reiterated its commitment to boost tourism in the state. In a recent meeting with Shri M Lakshminarayana, Advisor to Honourable Chief Minister of Karnataka, the company highlighted its plans to strengthen its footprint in the state.
The discussion focused on the tourism and hospitality landscape in the state, government’s plan to promote Karnataka under its campaign ‘One State, Many Worlds’ to attract more tourists and promote the state as a preferred destination. The discussion also revolved around strategies and steps taken by the Karnataka government to revitalise the industry amid COVID 19. The discussion hosted by Mr. Rohit Kapoor, Chief Executive Officer, OYO India & South Asia was attended by the company’s senior leadership team where the company shared details of its overall efforts to revive the sector, bringing demand for its hotel partners through alternative use cases and its plans to join hands with the government to facilitate new, improved ways of travel.
The hospitality chain plans to tap into inter-city travel, leisure and holiday-season travel demand and extend its ‘Sanitised Stays’ experience to the travellers given the steady boost in domestic tourism.
During the meeting, Shri M Lakshminarayana, Advisor to the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Karnataka, said, “Karnataka has immense potential to become a world-class destination. Many cities and destinations in the state are unexplored. The state is home to a diverse range of beaches, wildlife, and pilgrimage destinations. As workations and home-stays gain popularity, it continues to be a big focus for the state. Some of the most popular destinations Kodagu and Chikmagalur have beautiful home-stays which are in huge demand. Road infrastructure, first-class transport connectivity with airports continues to attract more tourists and maintains the state’s reputation as an industrial and technology hub. We are excited by the potential that OYO Hotels & Homes possesses to collaborate with the hotel partners and bring affordable, quality, safe and hygienic stay-in experiences to the travellers visiting the state.”
