August 25, 2024 – Acclaimed hospitality company Atmosphere Core aims at heralding a paradigm shift in the Indian hospitality landscape through unique and unforgettable experiences. With an impressive lineup of 14 distinctive new properties, the company will tap into proven expertise in guest programming, while tailoring the service to meet requirements of the diverse travellers and market segments within India.

Stéphane Laguette, the Chief Commercial Officer at Atmosphere Core, says “India has been witnessing a consistent growth in its tourism industry, with both domestic and international travellers exploring the diverse landscapes and cultural heritage of the country. Our extensive experience in managing resorts in the Maldives has naturally inspired us to expand our presence into South Asia, with a focus on the Indian subcontinent. We are very particular in identifying unique properties in strategic locations to carry forward our legacy and philosophy, Joy of Giving”.

Following a successful journey in the Maldives, of launching 3 brands and 8 resorts within 10 years, Atmosphere Core has an aggressive plan of 25 in 2025 for India.

The company is gearing up for the opening of two exciting new hotels this year, within THE OZEN COLLECTION and Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts brands. OZEN MANSION KOLKATA is preparing for a grand launch in October 2024. Nestled within six acres of lush gardens in Kolkata’s New Town area, the stately city hotel will offer 235 luxurious rooms and suites, and 65,000 square feet of indoor and 35,000 square feet of outdoor event spaces. Moving from the City of Joy to the heart of India, Atmosphere Core will open the doors of its second India property, SADAR MANZIL HERITAGE BY ATMOSPHERE BHOPAL in October 2024. This majestic 19th century royal building was used as the hall of audience by the Begums and Nawabs of Bhopal and is known for the finest architectures of that era.

In addition to the two hotels opening in 2024, Atmosphere Core has already announced 12 stunning properties across India, each set in some of the nation’s most breathtaking landscapes.
