Hyderabad: South Asia’s Marriott and Chalet hotels have come up with their first-ever all-women staff management in the city. The hotels are situated in Hitec City, Hyderabad, with 168 rooms and more than 100 female staff.
Raju Alex, Area vice president from South Asia at Marriott International Ica said, “This landmark opening marks the first all-women-operated hotel within the city and heralds a paradigm shift for the hospitality industry, breaking from the conventional ways of operating.”
She added that the team went through extensive training at the existing Westin Mindspace for more than seven months before taking over management of the new location.
Sanjay Sethi, CEO and Managing Director at Chalet Hotels, said, “We at Chalet Hotels are delighted to announce the opening of our second hotel in Hyderabad with the opening of ‘The Westin Hyderabad Hitec City’. This hotel is unique in more than one way. Not only is it going to be sold out from day one, but an equally path-breaking event is also that it will be launched by an all-women team. This ground-breaking initiative is a beacon of empowerment, reflecting our vision for a more inclusive and forward-thinking hospitality industry.”
Amitabh Rai, Cluster General Manager, Marriott said, “Introducing the first, all-women-managed hotel, The Hitec City will set a new standard of hospitality, transforming the way travellers experience wellbeing in the city of Hyderabad.”
