The property, commissioned by Marriott in 2017, offers apartment-style accommodations with kitchen facilities, catering to the growing demand for extended corporate stays in Hyderabad's IT corridor.
Operational Metrics and Rate Performance
Both flagship properties demonstrated strong rate resilience during the quarter:
| Property Performance | Q3 FY26 ADR | YoY Growth | 9M FY26 ADR | YoY Growth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Marriott | Rs. 8,135 | 10.3% | Rs. 7,296 | 11.1% |
| Courtyard | Rs. 8,386 | 11.3% | Rs. 7,432 | 14.6% |
RevPAR performance showed Marriott at Rs. 6,200 and Courtyard at Rs. 3,539 in Q3, leading to a combined RevPAR of Rs. 5,235 across the complex. The nine-month combined RevPAR stood at Rs. 4,273.
Investment Program Progress
The company continues executing its phased Rs. 120 crores investment program across both properties. Phase 1 focusing on Courtyard has been completed with an investment of Rs. 50 crores, adding 56 new rooms along with enhanced amenities including gym, spa, rooftop restaurants, and swimming pools.
Phase 2 will concentrate on Marriott, doubling convention capacity to 20,000 square feet by December 2026 through upgrading the existing 10,000 square feet facility. The remaining 295 Marriott rooms will undergo phased refurbishment to protect revenue streams. Management expects to spend Rs. 20-30 crores on convention center expansion and approximately Rs. 40 crores on room renovations.
Market Outlook and Strategic Positioning
Management highlighted favorable macro trends supporting India's hospitality sector, including moderating inflation, improved disposable income, and targeted fiscal measures favoring tourism development. Hyderabad specifically benefits from diversified demand driven by IT, pharmaceutical, and life sciences sectors, along with growing MICE activities.
The upcoming southern high-speed rail corridor represents a significant infrastructure catalyst, reducing travel times to Bangalore to approximately two hours and Chennai to three hours. This enhanced connectivity is expected to drive additional business travel and talent mobility, further supporting demand in Hyderabad's hospitality market.
With the completed acquisition and ongoing investment program, Viceroy Hotels now operates approximately 538 keys across its Hyderabad portfolio, positioning the company to capture the projected 15%-17% compound annual growth in India's hospitality sector through 2030.
