Marriott opens its 200th hotel in India with Westin Jaipur resort

International

Marriott International has reached a major milestone in India with the opening of The Westin Jaipur Kant Kalwar Resort & Spa, its 200th property in the country

The debut also marks Westin’s entry into one of India’s most sought-after leisure destinations and underlines Marriott’s long-term commitment to the Indian hospitality market.

Set on nine acres at the foothills of the Aravalli range, the resort brings Westin’s wellness-led philosophy to Rajasthan, combining restorative design with local craftsmanship. The opening reflects Marriott’s broader expansion strategy in India, where the company now operates 200 hotels across 18 brands and has a development pipeline of nearly 150 additional properties. India remains one of Marriott’s top three global growth markets, driven by strong domestic demand and ongoing investment in tourism infrastructure.

“Celebrating our 200th property in India is a defining moment for Marriott International,” said Kiran Andicot, Senior Vice President, South Asia. He highlighted the role of distinctive design, elevated dining concepts and service excellence in shaping the group’s growth, as well as continued confidence in the resilience of India’s hospitality sector.

The Westin Jaipur Kant Kalwar Resort & Spa features 135 rooms, suites and private villas, many with gardens and plunge pools. The resort is centred on Westin’s pillars of well-being – Sleep Well, Eat Well and Move Well – with wellness-focused accommodation, a full-service Heavenly Spa by Westin™, a 24-hour fitness studio and extensive outdoor activity options. Dining spans four venues, ranging from farm-to-fork cuisine to contemporary interpretations of Rajasthani flavours.

With flexible event spaces, landscaped lawns for weddings and a dedicated kids’ club, the resort is designed for leisure travellers, families and social gatherings alike. Curated cultural experiences and proximity to landmarks such as Amer and Nahargarh Forts further connect guests with the heritage of the region.
