Global hospitality group Accor is expanding its presence in India with the signing of a Pullman brand hotel in Dehradun Airport, expected to open in early 2029.
The Pullman Dehradun Airport will be situated at the foothill of the Himalayas in the Doon Valley, offering easy access to Dehradun and Rishikesh.
Accor India and South Asia development vice-president Aniruddh Kumar said: “We are delighted to introduce Pullman to Dehradun, bringing its distinctive energy and modern design to this emerging destination.
“Expanding into key cities allows Accor to offer travellers more choice and engaging experiences that blend sophistication with local character. With its prime location, curated spaces and dynamic offerings, Pullman Dehradun Airport will set a new benchmark for premium hospitality in the region."
It aims to cater to leisure travellers, business guests, and MICE [meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions] groups with its 200 rooms and suites, and 1,000m² of flexible event space.
Pullman Dehradun Airport will provide guests with various dining options, a spa, a fitness centre, and a swimming pool.
Pacific India Group promoter Abhishek Bansal said: “By bringing the Pullman brand to Dehradun, we aim to redefine hospitality in the region.
“Having played a pivotal role in transforming Dehradun’s urban landscape with iconic developments, including the largest retail mall in the region, this collaboration strengthens our vision of offering modern and sophisticated hospitality experiences to travellers.”
Established in 1867, Pullman Hotels & Resorts is known for balancing work and leisure, promoting well-being and social connection.
In a separate development, Accor has announced the opening of a Fairmont hotel in Mumbai, India, in partnership with Shrem Airport Hotels.
The property is set to join properties such as The Plaza in New York and The Savoy in London, under the Fairmont Hotels & Resorts brand.
The Fairmont Mumbai hotel will offer 446 rooms, encompassing suites, a dedicated wellness floor, and 75,000ft² of event space.
Guests will have access to five distinct dining venues and a variety of event spaces, such as the 21,000ft² Infinity Ballroom with two live theatre kitchens, the Eon Ballroom with a built-in bar, The Vantage rooftop venue, and the Grand Terminus business centre.
This expansion follows the recent growth of Accor brand Novotel in India, with a new property opening in New Delhi last month.
