Numbers are big, considering that the total inventory of five-star deluxe and four-star deluxe hotel is around 1,500 and total approved rooms in the city are more than 2,600 including three and four star hotels. Paucity of rooms means good business for serviced apartments. Though occupancy in service apartment is not driven, the short stay roomsÂ’ apartments are registering 60 to 80 percent occupancy this week.
Arjun Baljee, President, Royal Orchid Hotels says the bookings for these three events were made much in advance.
