Sayaji Hotels has expanded its footprint in Gujarat with the opening of Enrise by Sayaji in Gandhidham, a key commercial hub in the Kutch region. The new property adds 39 rooms and suites to the group's portfolio, along with a multi-cuisine restaurant and three banquet venues designed for corporate meetings and social events.

Gandhidham's strategic location near Deendayal Port and its established trade and logistics network make it a magnet for business travelers. Enrise by Sayaji is positioned to serve this demand with three accommodation categories—Deluxe, Premium Deluxe, and Suites—with room sizes ranging from 300 to 600 square feet.

Designed for corporate and social gatherings

The hotel's dining outlet, Momentt, seats 60 guests and offers a dedicated space for meals. For events, the property features three venues—Jewel, Crystal, and Solitaire—that can accommodate a range of business and social functions, from board meetings to weddings.

Sumera Dhanani, Corporate Head of Business Development at Sayaji Hotels Ltd, said: "With its strong commercial ecosystem and strategic location in Kutch, the city aligns well with our expansion plans."

Lalit Nawani, Director of Hardik Hotels Pvt Ltd, added: "We envisioned Enrise by Sayaji as a space that brings together thoughtful design, good food, and functional spaces for business and social gatherings."

The Gandhidham opening is part of Sayaji Hotels' broader growth strategy, which now includes 43 properties and more than 2,700 rooms across India. The group operates under its 'Yours Truly' service philosophy, focusing on delivering distinctive hospitality experiences.

For travel professionals, the new property adds another option in Gujarat's growing business travel market, complementing existing offerings in cities like Vadodara and Ahmedabad. The group's expansion into tier-2 and tier-3 cities reflects a wider trend in Indian hospitality, where demand is rising beyond major metros.

As India's domestic travel market continues to recover, hotel groups are increasingly looking to secondary cities with strong commercial activity. Gandhidham, with its port-driven economy, fits that profile, and Enrise by Sayaji is well placed to capture corporate demand.

The property's event spaces also cater to the MICE segment, which has shown resilience in the region. With three venues, the hotel can host everything from small breakout sessions to larger conferences, making it a versatile choice for event planners.

Sayaji Hotels' expansion comes at a time when several Indian hospitality players are scaling up. For instance, Taj Hotels in Sri Lanka have launched suite packages to boost leisure travel, while Novotel Visakhapatnam has introduced festive hampers. These moves highlight the industry's focus on catering to both business and leisure travelers.

With its strategic location and tailored amenities, Enrise by Sayaji in Gandhidham is set to become a key player in the region's hospitality landscape, offering a reliable option for business travelers and event organizers alike.
