Travel shifts could favour India amid global turmoil, says Minor Hotels founder Heinecke

With a goal of 50 hotels in India over the next decade, the company aims to balance city and leisure properties, emphasising quality experiences rather than rapid scale. “We’re positioned like the big players, but without their baggage,” William said. The focus is on creating unique stays, leveraging brand diversity, and catering to the evolving expectations of both domestic and international travellers, he added.
