Park Hotels opens first luxury resort in Kerala

MUHAMMA: Targetting the high-end domestic and international luxury travellers, Apeejay Surrendra Park Hotels has forayed into the resort segment by opening its first 10-room luxury resort in the country in Kerala at Muhamma on the banks of Vembanad Lake in Alappuzha.

Kerala is the perfect destination for our entry into this segment because the state has always been synonymous with luxury and high-end tourism which is exactly how we have positioned our properties -- to cater to well heeled tourists and leisure travellers, The Park Hotels chairperson Priya Paul said in a statement issued by the company.

The Rs 15-crore resort, built in an over-an-acre plot, has 10 luxury rooms, a suite, two tented spas offering Ayurvedic and contemporary treatments, a gymnasium and Hyacinth restaurant, associate vice-president Apeejay Surrendra Park Hotels Lemuel Herbert told reporters here
