Jaipur is going to be showcased at The Great India Travel Bazaar (GITB) as the only tier II city in the country with the largest inventory of five-star hotels. Three more luxury hotels are going to be launched soon in the city, taking the total number of five star hotels to 12-14. The event is going to be held between April 15 -17, 2012.
According to Khalid Khan,
former president of Rajasthan Association of Tour operators (RATO), "This year the inaugural dinner would be at The Lalit which is going to announce its arrival in the city in a big way. The hotel would have an inventory of 240 rooms and a large convention centre to accommodate 1,500-2,000 people." Besides, Radisson Blu which is likely to be ready by July 2012 would be a 180-room hotel and the largest one in the city; Fairmont, is likely to be ready by September 2012 and would be a 365-room property. "Just these three would add about 600-700 room nights to the city's room inventory taking the total number of room nights to 4,000 in the city," Khalid also added. "It's a platform to introduce Fairmont Hotels & Resorts to this market, and provide a luxury option for the meeting and leisure traveller in the region. It's also an opportunity to create business opportunities out of the Great Indian Travel Bazaar, interact with local and foreign buyers, registered Indian sellers, and also to generate awareness for Fairmont Jaipur," said the spokesperson of Fairmont Hotels. Since this would be comparatively large room inventory with multiple convention options, this would also draw a lot of MICE (meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions) traffic from other cities to Jaipur. "Tourism is certainly increasing with almost 12-13 per cent and in times to come this would be very good for the buyers as with so much supply and options it would spell a healthy competition," Khalid added. According to the ministry of tourism Government of India, "The number of foreign tourist arrivals (FTAs) in India during 2010 increased to 5.78 million as compared to 5.17 million in 2009. The growth rate in FTAs during 2010 over 2009 was 11.8% as compared to (-) 2.2% during 2009 over 2008. The growth rate of 11.8% in 2010 for India was better than World Tourism Organisation UNWTO's projected growth rate of 5% to 6% for the world in 2010." The Great India Travel Bazaar is an event of the Department of Tourism, supported by Rajasthan Association of Tour operators RATO, FICCI, Hotel & Restaurant Associations of Rajasthan HRAR and Indian Heritage Hotels Association (IHHA).
