Hotel Industry in India

The Hotel Industry constitutes an important sector of the tourist infrastructure of the economy. It can be an individual concern or an international business. It can employ family member of its owner or can create thousands of jobs. It can function in the smaller settings as effectively and efficiently as in wide-ranging national and multinational operations. It has thus the flexibility of adjustment to situation which few other economic activities posses. Hotels are the vital and essential component of tourist industry. They are the keystones in the arch of global tourism. It is a miniature country representing to the tourists from distant, far-off lands, the feel and flavour of a country’s cuisine, culture and its way of life. Without the adequate development of hotel resources, all the national scenery, all the climatic virtues and all the sporting and recreational facilities do not suffice to sustain a good volume of tourist trade. The pervasive influence of the travel and tourism, the infiltration of national and international attitudes and increasing leisure associated with higher income groups has made the environment more conducive for the growth of hotels.
