The most preferred hotel brands in India
HVS, the hotel consultancy and research firm, did a survey of hotel brands in India, asking hotel owners in the country about which hotel brands they prefer. The owners ranked the top 10 domestic and international brands, and not surprisingly on the domestic side, Taj and Oberoi topped the list. On international, Hyatt should be happy with these results.
And interestingly, the survey also asked about which is the best hotel from a food & beverage perspective, keeping in mind the significance of F&B in these hotels.
