#First Opinion
“In 2024, we experienced a drop in occupancy compared to 2023, mainly due to extreme weather conditions and general elections, which impacted travel patterns in May and June. These external factors resulted in fewer bookings during these months, affecting our overall occupancy rates. Despite this challenge, we are pleased to report a significant 16.3% growth in our Average Daily Rate (ADR). In 2023, our ADR was INR 17,320, and it has risen to INR 20,138 in 2024. This increase highlights our strategic focus on enhancing the guest experience through premium offerings, personalized services, and unique culinary experiences.”
