The expansion of Park Inn & Suites by Radisson into India’s emerging hospitality markets signals a calculated step in the group’s growth strategy. With new signings in Puri, Odisha, and Nashik, Maharashtra, the midscale brand continues to deepen its footprint across culturally significant and commercially dynamic destinations. In doing so, Radisson Hotel Group aligns modern hospitality with the rising demand for spiritual tourism, wine tourism and business travel across India.
Strategically positioned in the heart of Puri, the hotel will benefit from seamless connectivity. Bhubaneswar Airport lies about an hour away while Puri railway station is only three minutes from the site. Moreover, National Highway 316 ensures convenient access for road travellers. Its proximity to the revered Jagannath Temple also places the hotel within the Krishna pilgrimage circuit, attracting millions of visitors each year and reinforcing Puri’s position as a powerful spiritual tourism hub.
Meanwhile, in western India, Park Inn & Suites by Radisson Nashik is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2026. The property will feature 55 well-appointed rooms alongside amenities such as a swimming pool, gym and contemporary interiors designed to deliver comfort for both business and leisure guests. The development is being undertaken by TCP Hospitality LLP, a business group based in Nashik.
Nashik offers a distinctive hospitality landscape where spirituality and lifestyle tourism converge. Visitors arrive for temple pilgrimages while wine enthusiasts explore the region’s celebrated vineyards. Attractions such as Sula Vineyard, Kalaram Temple and Trimbakeshwar Temple ensure a steady flow of travellers throughout the year, strengthening the city’s position as an evolving tourism and business hub.
“We are thrilled to announce the signing of Park Inn & Suites by Radisson in Puri and in Nashik. Given Puri’s immense spiritual significance and the rising demand for spiritual tourism, it is an essential destination for our expansion. Nashik, on the other hand, has a unique appeal that cuts across tourists visiting its elegant vineyards, pilgrims who arrive for the many temples, including the famous Trimbakeshwar Temple, and business travellers having an interest in the thriving MIDC hub. This is what makes it a strategic destination for growth for us. Our Park Inn & Suites by Radisson brand, which is designed to cater to the diverse needs of all such different travellers, will complement these cities’ welcoming character,” said Nikhil Sharma, Managing Director and Area Senior Vice President, Radisson Hotel Group South Asia.
“As part of our ongoing strategy to strengthen Radisson Hotel Group’s footprint across India, we are pleased to announce our expansions in both Nashik and Puri. Nashik, with its rising prominence as a business, cultural, and spiritual hub, and Puri, a long-established spiritual destination in Eastern India, represent the kind of diverse locations where we see great opportunity. Our focus is on creating hotels that align with the evolving preferences of the travellers, and these developments will play a key role in further establishing our presence in both Maharashtra and Odisha, states that are poised for strong tourism growth,” said Davashish Srivastava, Senior Director of Development, Radisson Hotel Group (South Asia).
Through these signings, Radisson Hotel Group continues to target India’s fast-growing tier-two destinations where cultural heritage, economic growth and rising travel demand intersect. The strategy also reinforces the brand’s ambition to deliver accessible, modern hospitality across markets that are rapidly evolving beyond traditional metro-city tourism.
