The Clarks Hotels and Resorts recently announced the opening of The Albatross Golf Resort in Kandy, with the aim of promoting Sri Lanka to Indian travellers and taking advantage of the country’s growing business and leisure travel market.
The brand stated it is aggressively looking for expansion in the neighbouring country by opening properties in different key locations in Sri Lanka.
The Clarks Hotels and Resorts Vice President Rahul Deb Banerjee said: “As a part of our corporate strategy, we are expanding both nationally and internationally. We are present in almost all states of India and have recently also opened a unique property in Sri Lanka. We are price-conscious and believe in providing value for money to our travellers. This is the best time to be in the tourism industry, with the Sri Lankan Government pushing tourism, and with the pandemic having changed the attitude towards travelling, the coming days will witness a further increase in tourism. We are also now promoting Sri Lanka and the Maldives as our new international destinations.”
The Clarks Hotels and Resorts Head of Development – Sri Lanka and the Maldives Gabriel Gunesekere said: “We are optimistic that The Clarks’ expansion has created a buzz in the Sri Lankan market and will further add more properties to The Clarks Hotels and Resorts portfolio in the coming months. By 2023, the brand will comprise about 150 properties within its chain.”
