Chalet Hotels launched The Westin Hyderabad Hitec City in partnership with Marriott International earlier today. This 168-key property will be managed and operated by an all-women team, making it the first-of-its-kind not only within the city but also within the entire Chalet Hotels and Marriott International portfolio across South Asia.
This initiative reflects Chalet’s commitment to its larger Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) agenda, emphasizing equal opportunities and a diverse work environment. The company’s dedication to these values has been recognized by Great Place to Work® India, as Chalet Hotels has been listed among ‘India’s Best Workplaces for Women’ for two consecutive years (2021 and 2022).
Strategically located in the prominent technology township of Hitec City, The Westin Hyderabad Hitec City offers an ideal destination for guests. With 168 spacious guest rooms and suites, the hotel provides a rejuvenating atmosphere, ensuring a comfortable and memorable stay for its guests.
The hotel has received an overwhelming response from a single entity that has fully booked it for three consecutive years, starting from June 2023. As a result, the hotel premises and services will be exclusively dedicated to this corporate entity during this period.
Speaking about the announcement, Sanjay Sethi, Managing Director and CEO, Chalet Hotels, said, “We at Chalet Hotels are delighted to announce the opening of our second hotel in Hyderabad with the opening of ‘The Westin Hyderabad Hitec City’. This hotel is unique in more than one way. Not only is it going to be sold out from day one, an equally path-breaking event is that it will be launched by an all-women team. This groundbreaking initiative is a beacon of empowerment, reflecting our vision for a more inclusive and forward-thinking hospitality industry.”
“We are thrilled to expand the brand’s footprint in Hyderabad with the opening of The Westin Hyderabad Hitec City,” said Ranju Alex, Area Vice President, South Asia, Marriott International. “This landmark opening marks the first all-women-operated hotel within the city and heralds a paradigm shift for the hospitality industry, breaking from the conventional ways of operating. Paired with the Westin brand’s signature programs, adapted to the needs of the modern traveller, the hotel is set to deliver experiences designed to empower a better you.”
“Introducing the first, all-women-managed hotel, The Westin Hyderabad Hitec City will set a new standard of hospitality, transforming the way travellers experience well-being in the city of Hyderabad,” said Amitabh Rai, Cluster General Manager, The Westin Hyderabad Mindspace and Hyderabad Market, Marriott International. “We welcome guests to discover the beauty and charm of the city of the Nizam’s, while our signature well-being Westin brand will offer fresh and unique experiences to both local and international guests.”
