INTRODUCTION TO HOTEL INDUSTRY
One of the fastest growing sectors of the economy is the hotel industry. It is the existing and the fastest growing sector offering unlimited opportunities. The hotel industry is diverse enough for people from different fields to work at same place.
The concept of hotels is rather old. It takes back to 6 century B.C. where ventures of husbands and wives of that age introduced the concept of hotels on a small scale basis. These units were called ‘inn’. Here the wife and the daughter looked after the food and entertainment of the guest while the husbands did the financial and running about jobs. Huge hall was provided to the traveler where he could make his own bed and rest. Inns prevailed for a few hundred years. The change in this industry began to occur when industrial revolution took place in England and gave birth to new ideas, in the advent of Inn keeping, more so the development in means of communication systems gave this industry a boost.

INDIAN HOTEL INDUSTRY
The concept of travel and halting on the way is not all together a new idea for Indians. In the 16th and 17 centuries also there existed innumerable number of dharmashalas, sarais (inns) and taverns in India. The credit of introducing the modern hotels in India goes to the British. About 80 to 90 years ago they launched the hotel projects in India for their own use.
Over the last decade and half the rush to India for business opportunities has intensified and elevated room rates and occupancy levels in India. Even budget hotels are charging USD 250 per day. The successful growth story of 'Hotel Industry in India' seconds only to China in Asia Pacific.
CLASSIFICATION OF HOTEL INDUSTRY
Hotel industry is classified on the basis of Standards and Nature of the hotel.
Classification on the basis of Standards:
Five Star Hotels: - The most luxurious and conveniently located hotels are grouped under Five Star Deluxe Hotel categories. Five Star Deluxe hotels in India are globally competitive in the quality of service provided, facilities offered and accommodation option. These are top of the line hotels located mostly in big cities. These hotels provide all the modern facilities for accommodation and recreation matching international standards in hospitality.
Four Star Hotels: - A rung below five star hotels are Four Star Hotels, these hotels provide all the modern amenities to the travelers with a limited budget. Quality of services is almost as high as the five stars and above categories. These kinds of hotels are there for the travelers with limited budget or for the places which might not get the tourist traffic associated with larger cities.
Three Star Hotels: - These are mainly economy class hotels located in the bigger and smaller cities and catering to the needs of budget travelers. Lesser in amenities and facilities, these hotels are value for money and gives good accommodation and related services on the reduced price but sufficient to fulfill customer basic needs.
Two Star Hotels: - These hotels are most available in the small cities and in particular areas of larger cities. Catering to the backpacker tourist traffic, these hotels provide all the basic facilities needed for general accommodation and offers lowest prices.
One Star Hotels: - The hotels with most basic facilities, small number of room’s locations in the far-flung areas are grouped under One Star Hotel category. These hotels are best when customer is looking for cheapest available accommodation option.
7 | P a g e
Classification on the basis of Nature:
Heritage Hotels: - Heritage hotels are best if one is looking for sheer elegance, luxury and loyal treatment. They are not just another accommodation options but tourist attractions in themselves. Exquisitely designed and decorated, meticulously preserved, high standards of service and ethnic cultural motifs helps the tourists get the complete experience of an India.
Beach Resorts Hotels: - these hotels are located near to the coastline offering an amazing array of beaches, some popular, some not so well known. Thus location of resort is the basic point of attraction for tourists.
Wild Resorts Hotels: - A wildlife tour is incomplete if one does not actually live in a forest for a few days. It means living in a rest house or a tent the midst of the dense wilderness and waking up to the twittering of birds.
Government Approved Hotels: - These are the hotels, which might not have applied for star categorization or small enough to find them in the list. Many of the wildlife resorts, lodges and hostels are government approved providing a minimum level of accommodation facilities at far off places.
Residential Hotels: - The residential hotels work as apartment house. Often we call them apartment hotels. The hotels charge rent on monthly, half – yearly, or yearly basis. They are generally located in big cities and towns where no meals are served to the customers. Initially, the residential hotels were developed in the USA. The services offered here are comparable to an average well managed home.
Commercial Hotels: - The commercial hotels are meant for the people who visit a place of trade and commerce or business purposes and therefore these hotels are found located at the commercial or industrial centers. They focus their attention on individual travelers and are generally run by owners.
Floating Hotels: - The floating hotels are located on the water surface. The places are sea, river, and lake. These hotels provide with all the facilities and services made available in a good hotel. In the leading tourist generating countries of the world we find the practice of using old luxury ships as floating hotels.

WEAKNESS Absence in the international market:
Leela group of hotels operates only in India so there is a less awareness in the international market about the group.
Other categories of hotel segment is left untouched:The Leela Group operates only as a luxury hotels chain, so the revenue which can be earned from the other segment remains untouched.
OPPORTUNITIES Presence in international market:
Opening up some hotels in the international market would give it a opportunity to become a international brand along with a huge sum of foreign revenue.
Explore in other categories of hotels:Opening up the other categories of hotels other than luxury hotel will make it as a acceptable brand by the all categories of guests.
More of local guests:As the majority of the guests which come to Leela are foreigners, it could revamp its policy and come up with lucarative offers for local clients both in the season & off-season.
THREATS Foreign Brands opening in Indian market:
Most of the international brands have started entering into the Indian market making the Indian market more competitive
Recession:Global recession is also a threat because most of the guests come from the foreign countries and it can reduce the number of tourists from the foreign countries.
