Excellence is a journey; it is a constant striving for perfection, for achieving the best results. There is no dearth of amazing hotel-iers or good leaders in the hospitality industry. But just a few attempt to take risks and achieve results beyond the ordinary, sometimes by innovating and at the other times by the sheer force of their ambition.
For Hotelier India’s annual Power List 2019, we drew up a list that en compasses several levels of the hospitality industry — from owners to senior management, who have made immense contribution to not just their brands, but to the industry at large. Whether it is making forays into difficult markets across India or opening hotels with a difference, or even bringing in new systems and processes, or offering sage advice and analysis to the industry, each is an achiever in her or his own right.
We also have a few new entrants to the list this year. Just by the force of their gumption, forward-thinking and innovative strategizing, they inspire a whole new generation of hoteliers.

Prithviraj Singh Oberoi, or Biki Oberoi as he is known, is an inspirational figure not just in the Indian hospitality industry but even in the entrepreneurial space. He has taken The Oberoi Group of Hotels to great heights, redefining luxury as ‘understated and discreet’ for an entire generation of hoteliers, without losing sight of the roots from which the group draws its sustenance.
