TO SERVE WITH LOVE

If you're on a road trip anywhere in India, there's a huge possibility that every four hours, you'll find a Radisson Hotel.

Hard to believe? Incidentally, it's a feat no other hotel in India can boast of.

And a feat that got accomplished only because the leaders at the Radisson Hotel Group firmly believe in their organization's motto 'Yes, I Can'.

Celebrating 25 years of their existence in India, the Radisson's story is one of rare grit and gumption...

A story that started in the late '90s with just one hotel in Delhi but grew into a robust 25-year-old group today with almost 150 hotels across the country.

So also a story that started with the vision and passion of one man who's known as a legend today in the Indian hospitality industry, K B Kachru, but grew into a team of dynamic leaders taking the brand to unprecedented heights of success.

Hotelier India celebrates Radisson's 25 years in India by interviewing key Radisson leaders, chronicling the reasons behind the brand's stupendous growth, and deconstructing what makes it a class apart - a brand with an international identity but a national heart.

THE BIRTH AND GROWTH OF RADISSON IN INDIA

The Radisson Hotel Group is one of the world's largest hotel groups with nine distinctive hotel brands, and more than 1,100 hotels in operation and development, in EMEA and APAC.

The elite brand was brought to India by K B Kachru in 1998, with its first hotel Radisson Blu Plaza Delhi Airport built in Mahipalpur in Delhi. Kachru then was the Senior VicePresident of Radisson Hotels Asia and soon went on to become Chairman of the Hotel Group, South Asia. As the flagship property, Radisson Blu Plaza holds a special place for the brand in India, and travellers alike, for its proximity both to the airport and metro station.
