Fifty years ago, Late Mr Jit Paul and Late Mr Surrendra Paul took the hospitality industry a notch higher when Apeejay Surrendra Group’s first hotel THE Park Kolkata, a contemporary luxury property was opened on November 1, 1967. Since then THE Park Hotels have taken the path of creating a unique collection of luxury boutique hotels. Tapping into the ever-shifting pulse of society, the edgy design and imaginative spaces have brought together the coolest thinkers and the pioneers of creativity to engage with each other and with the hotels. THE Park Hotels have fashioned a new vision for hospitality in India, building places that are ‘Anything But Ordinary’.
Speaking on the occasion, Priya Paul, Chairperson, Apeejay Surrendra Park Hotels Ltd. said, “50 years is an important milestone and I am grateful to everyone who has been part of THE Park Hotels incredible journey. Our remarkable success is due to our solid foundation and values. Our vision of ‘Leadership Through Differentiation’ is manifested by each of our 15 hotels across India. My outstanding team and I look forward to creating more Anything But Ordinary experiences for customers and creating more value for our stakeholders.”
The Park Hotels’ golden jubilee celebrations kick-started with a 50-hour party at The Park Kolkata, followed by The Park Calangute Goa and will continue for one year across India. The celebrations will culminate at The Park Vishakhapatnam which also turns 50 in 2018.
