| November 18, 2010 | Marriott opens hotel and convention centre in Pune | | Pune: The Marriott Group has opened its hotel in Pune. The Pune Marriott Hotel and Convention Centre becomes the 500th Marriot in the world. The group has plans to start 100 more hotels in India in the next 5 years. Marriott International, now a global lodging leader with 18 distinct brands, opened its first hotel in 1957. It was the 365-room Twin Bridges Marriott Hotel located just outside of Washington, D.C. That hotel gave birth to what has become the company’s iconic Marriott Hotels & Resorts brand, the company’s most widely distributed brand with hotels in 60 countries. After
52 years, Marriott Hotels & Resorts celebrates the opening of its 500th milestone
hotel—the 416-room Pune Marriott Hotel & Convention Centre in the historic city
of Pune, India, an established educational and cultural center that is emerging
as an IT and automotive capital, just three hours by superhighway south of Mumbai.
In addition to being the headquarters hotel for the new Pune Convention Center,
this hotel has been built from the ground up to be green. As part of its 500th
milestone, Marriott Hotels celebrates continued innovation that built the brand
– on display in Pune and around the world – with cutting edge technology, high-performance
fitness centers, refreshed room design, the day-to-night M.I. Greatroom approach
to the lobby -- as well as the timeless qualities of service and consistent performance
that make it a favorite of frequent travelers worldwide. The future of the Marriott
Hotels brand is on view today at hotels around the world, including at the newest,
the Pune Marriott Hotel & Convention Center. Marriott Hotels & Resorts is Marriott
International's original and most widely distributed, iconic brand, with 500 hotels
and resorts in 60 countries. Marriott continues to inspire a balanced life on
the road for discerning and high-achieving business and leisure travelers, offering
warm, professional service; sophisticated yet functional guest room design; lobby
spaces that facilitate working, dining and socializing; restaurants and bars serving
international cuisine prepared simply and from the freshest ingredients; meeting
and event spaces and services that are gold standard; and expansive, 24-hour fitness
facilities. All Marriott hotels participate in the award winning Marriott Rewards
frequent travel program that allows members to earn hotel points or airline miles
for every dollar spent during each stay.
