Accomplished in under six months since the brand\u2019s debut in November 2025, this pace of growth stands as one of the most compelling chapters in Marriott\u2019s regional expansion story and firmly establishes India as the defining foundation for Series by Marriott\u2019s global growth. \u201cWhen we launched Series by Marriott in India last November, we spoke of a brand designed to scale with both speed and purpose,\u201d said <strong>Kiran Andicot, Senior Vice President, South Asia, Marriott International<\/strong>. \u201cReaching 75 signings, with 50 open and operating hotels across the country, in under six months is a validation of that vision. India is not simply a launchpad for this brand; it is proof of concept. As we expand our footprint, we remain focused on delivering consistent, quality experiences for guests, while offering owners an efficient, conversion-friendly model, backed by the strength of Marriott Bonvoy and our distribution ecosystem\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the founding deal for Series by Marriott\u2019s global debut, Concept Hospitality and The Fern Hotels &amp; Resorts brought to the table a distinctive combination of regional authenticity, and a commitment to sustainable hospitality, spanning the breadth of the subcontinent. Together, the resulting Series by Marriott portfolio now spans 43 cities in India across Tier 1, 2 and 3 markets, reflecting both depth of presence and strong geographic balance across the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cReaching 75 signed hotels is a milestone we are genuinely proud of, but the more meaningful story is the hotels that are already open &#8211; already welcoming guests, earning loyalty, and delivering on the promise we made when this association began,\u201d said\u00a0<strong>Suhail Kannampilly, Managing Director, Concept Hospitality<\/strong>. \u201cThe alignment between The Fern\u2019s heritage of thoughtful, regionally rooted hospitality and Marriott International\u2019s global standards and distribution has resonated powerfully with owners and travelers alike. Between our commitment to sustainable hospitality, the industry\u2019s growing appetite for quality development, and Marriott\u2019s unmatched systems and loyalty reach, we are tracking well ahead of our plans &#8211; and we are only just beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Series by Marriott is a regionally created globally connected, collection brand that brings together locally recognized hotel groups under the trusted umbrella of Marriott Bonvoy.
