With brands like Iconiqa, Crestoria, Regenta, Regenta Place, Regenta Z, the Royal Orchid Group is the fifth largest hotel brand in India.
Founded in 2001 by visionary hotelier Mr. Chander K. Baljee, Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd.
(ROHL) has grown from a single hotel in Bengaluru to one of India’s leading hospitality
companies. Built on a strong foundation of service excellence, innovation, and a deep
understanding of Indian hospitality, the group has continually evolved to meet the needs of
modern travelers while maintaining the warmth of traditional Indian hospitality.
The journey began with Hotel Royal Orchid, Bengaluru, which quickly gained acclaim for
its exceptional service and business-centric offerings. Recognizing the growing demand for
quality hotels across India’s emerging cities and travel destinations, the group embarked on a
strategic expansion — one that prioritized not just scale, but diversity in offerings and
markets.
