Ramee Group

What Ramee Group does

Ramee Group of Hotels, Resorts & Apartments is a privately held hospitality company founded in 1985 by Chairman and Chief Managing Worker Raj Shetty. Headquartered in Mumbai, India, the company operates a portfolio of more than 40 hotels and resorts across four countries — India, the United Arab Emirates (Dubai), Oman, and Bahrain — organized under a tiered sub-brand architecture that includes Ramee Guestline (business hotels), Ramee Collection and Ramee Grand (upper-upscale and spa-led properties), Ramee Royal, Ramee Dream, Ramee Rose, and Regent Palace (premium and resort properties), Ramee Techome (extended-stay apartments), and regional brands such as Ramee California, Ramee Wolkenburg, Ramee Panchshil, and Ramee Tarang.

The company generates revenue from four primary streams: hotel accommodations (rooms and suites across standard to royal-tier categories), food and beverage (more than 30 restaurant, lounge, and nightlife brands such as Troy, Vice, Cavo, Zoloto, Megumi, OCHO, and Ilili spanning Indian, Arabian, Asian, and international cuisines), banquets and events (meeting rooms, conference facilities, and banquet halls across properties), and spa and wellness services. A separate corporate/long-stay contract stream serves business travelers and enterprise accounts with recurring billing arrangements. Distribution runs primarily through direct channels — the proprietary booking engine at booking.rameehotels.com, phone reservations via a central desk, email inquiries, and a corporate direct-sales function — supplemented by content marketing and SEO targeting segment-specific keywords.

Ramee serves four primary customer segments: business travelers (corporate executives and consultants needing proximity to commercial districts, with conference and connectivity amenities), family and pilgrim travelers (notably families visiting the Tirupati property near Sri Venkateswara Temple), luxury and leisure travelers (premium hospitality seekers, honeymooners), and extended-stay guests (professionals on long-term projects requiring apartment-style accommodations with kitchenettes). The group is founder-led, privately held, with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity, and operates alongside the Ramee Foundation as a CSR/sustainability adjunct.
