“There is a general shortage of hotel rooms in leisure destinations across India. V Resorts uses technology to improve discoverability and monetizes idle inventory across locations,” Puri, director – Archer Hospitality, said in a written statement.
“This kind of business model allows V Resorts to be a hotel operator with lower capital investment, thereby improving returns on net capital invested and also allows them to scale up and grow at a rapid pace. Just think of it like the Uber of hotels in smaller offbeat locations,” Chuganee said in the official statement.
