Hotel industry ‘s fortunes are closely related with the growth in Tourism and Business Travel. After many  years of lackluster  performance, due to recession in western countries which reduces the chance of  higher spending for  vacations in one side and limited chances for business travel on the other side,now this industry  started to show some early signs of revival. Royal orchid Hotels (ROH) is a Bangalore based hotel chain running around 15 hotel properties across the country. Royal Orchid having presence in major Indian Cities includes Bangalore,Mysore,Mumbai,Ahmedabad,Jaipur,Pune,Goa,Hyderabad and Hospet.
