About O-Tel

O-Tel (Where Memories Pause)

O-Tel is a chain of luxury resorts and home stays that redefines hospitality by blending elegance, comfort, and curated local experiences across some of the most picturesque destinations in India and abroad. With premium properties located in Bhimtal, Rishikesh, Goa, Sariska Tiger Reserve Rajasthan, Gurgaon, Phuket, soon in Shimla, Manali, and international locations of Colombo, and Dubai, O-Tel offers more than just a place to stay—it offers a lifestyle.

Whether it's the tranquil lakeside retreat in Bhimtal, the spiritual serenity of Rishikesh, or the vibrant beach energy of Goa and Phuket, guests are enveloped in thoughtfully crafted spaces that prioritize privacy, relaxation, and sensory indulgence. What sets O-Tel apart is its vision to be a global icon in boutique luxury hospitality, where every stay becomes a story.

THE Founding Story: The Birth of O‑Tel

O‑Tel was born not just as a hospitality brand, but as a deeply personal vision — a response to a growing void in travel: the lack of authentic, soulful, and thoughtfully designed spaces that make people feel at home anywhere in the world.

It all began with a journey. As a passionate traveler and entrepreneur, the founder found himself drawn to the quiet charm of the mountains, the energy of coastal towns, and the rich culture embedded in India’s most untouched corners. Yet, in every destination, there was a recurring frustration — mass-produced hotel experiences that felt cold, transactional, and disconnected from their surroundings.

What travelers craved wasn’t just a place to sleep. They yearned for warmth, meaning, and a sense of belonging.

Travel should feel personal; again

O‑Tel emerged as an answer to that longing. Built on the belief that "travel should feel personal again," the brand set out to create boutique stays that bring together the comforts of luxury with the soul of local living. Every O‑Tel property — from forest-facing chalets in Sariska to lake-kissed retreats in Bhimtal and vibrant beach getaways in Goa and Phuket — is handpicked and designed to reflect its natural and cultural context, with mindfulness at its core.

But O‑Tel’s mission went beyond beautiful properties. It set out to solve a larger problem: disconnection — between people and places, between hospitality and heart. By embedding local art, cuisine, nature, and storytelling into the guest experience, O‑Tel reimagines what it means to stay somewhere — not as a visitor, but as a part of the destination’s story.

Today, O‑Tel is more than a name in hospitality. It’s a growing community of travelers, dreamers, and seekers who believe in slow travel, conscious living, and the magic of beautifully curated spaces.

And we’re just getting started.
