Rahul Uppal, a young man driven by a determined spirit of entrepreneurship and a deep-seated passion for travel, embarked on a journey to establish a business venture with his partner, Manoj Sihag. Hailing from a business family, Rahul was inspired to carve his own path and chart a course towards building a legacy of his own.
He chose to redefine hospitality in the serene landscapes of Himachal Pradesh. In 2019, along with his partner Manoj, he laid the foundation of Echor Hotels & Resorts (formerly known as Echor Stays), a boutique hotel chain poised to set new standards in the hospitality industry.
The enterprising young duo speak to Hotelier India about their journey so far, creating unique travel experiences in offbeat destinations and more...
How was Echor Hotels & Resorts born? What is the objective of your company?
We wanted to create a brand that caters to the growing demand for unique travel experiences in offbeat destinations. We saw a gap in the hospitality industry, where travellers were seeking escapes that were both luxurious and authentic, far from the overcrowded tourist spots. Our objective is to offer guests the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and local culture, all while maintaining the highest standards of hospitality. Echor's mission is to provide memorable stays that allow guests to connect with the beauty and charm of lesser-explored destinations.
What kind of challenges you faced while developing and launching your company? How did you overcome them?
