The unassuming demeanour of Rohit Vig doesn’t belie his senior position in the StayWell Group.
He carries the highly responsible position of Regional managing Director (India) & Director Development, StayWell Hospitality management Pvt. Ltd. quite lightly on his shoulders, but while conversing with him one could easily realise that his knowledge about the nuances of the business of hospitality far outmatches his young age.
Here it deserves a mention that Australia-based StayWell Hospitality Holdings is one of Asia-Pacific’s largest hotel management groups with six hotels in India within its operational ambit. Globally, StayWell Holdings and its parent company Prince Hotels Inc., offers a diverse portfolio of properties across a combined network of 75 open and operating hotels.
“StayWell itself has an existing network of 23 open and operating hospitality properties, with presence in Australia, middle-East, India, China, Indonesia, Singapore and the UK,” informed Rohit, who is responsible for leading StayWell Hospitality’s operations and vision in India.
StayWell Options
In India, there are three managed and three franchised properties under the ambit of StayWell Hospitality Holdings. The group ventured into India in 2012.
Presently, out of Prince Hotels & Resorts’s and StayWell’s nine brand offerings, StayWell is having the presence of two brands in India, which are Park Regis and Leisure Inn.
“Park Regis is an upscale hospitality brand, with properties in India within this branding falling under either five-star or four-star categories, whereas the brand presence of Leisure Inn in India is spread across three-star properties,” disclosed Rohit.
The six operational hospitality properties in India carrying the branding of the group are Leisure Inn VKL Kochi, Leisure Inn West Gurgaon, Park Regis Aveda Kumarakom, Leisure Inn Grand Chanakya in Jaipur, Park Regis Jaipur, and Park Regis Goa.
