Park Plaza opens new hotel in Jaipur, India

Travel News Asia 10 March 2003

Park Plaza hotels, part of Carlson Hotels Worldwide, today announced that its India-based partner, Sarovar Park Plaza Hotels, has opened a new Park Plaza in Jaipur, India.

The Park Plaza Jaipur has a prime city location close to both shopping and key business locations. The hotel is steps from Statue Circle on Prithviraj Road and around one mile from M.I. Road, the main shopping area. Convenient to transportation, it is approximately seven miles from the airport and just two miles or so from the railway station.

"We are especially excited with this hotel opening because the Park Plaza Jaipur is our 25th hotel to open in India," said Anil Madhok, managing director for Sarovar Park Plaza Hotels, which operates the extensive network of Park Plaza and Park Inn hotels and resorts across India. "Jaipur is one of the most progressive cities of Northern India, as well as one of the most tourist friendly in India," he added.

Jaipur is the capital city of the northern Indian state of Rajasthan and is one of the most vibrant and colorful cities of India. The nine-story Park Plaza Jaipur is a boutique business hotel with 83 spacious, well-appointed rooms. Guestrooms include double and twin rooms, as well as 24 deluxe rooms and suites. All rooms are equipped with modern amenities including electronic  locks, tea/coffee makers, bath tubs, satellite television, central air-conditioning, and mini-bars.

"India has one of the fastest growing travel and tourism markets in their region," added Jetse Pottinga, executive vice president and brand leader for Park Hospitality, parent organization of Park Plaza hotels. "We believe there is a strong future for Park Plaza in India, especially for the Park Plaza Jaipur which is a key location for business or leisure travelers."

Known as India's "Pink City" because of the pink wash that most buildings are periodically given, Jaipur has timeless appeal, surrounded on all sides by rugged hills, crowned with forts and palaces and enclosed by embattled walls. Houses with latticed windows line the streets with their rose pink  color, lending enchantment to the scene, which is virtually magical at sunset.
