Ananta Hotels and Resorts

What Ananta Hotels and Resorts does

Ananta Hotels and Resorts (legal entity: Goyal Fashions Pvt Ltd) is a privately held Indian hospitality chain headquartered in Jaipur, operating a portfolio of 14 luxury and mid-range hotel and resort properties across 13+ cities in Rajasthan, Goa, Gujarat, Jammu & Kashmir, and Himachal Pradesh. The company serves three primary customer segments — luxury leisure travelers, destination wedding couples, and pilgrims (notably at the Vaishno Devi–adjacent Ananta Express, Katra) — through a three-tier brand architecture: Ananta Elite (luxury wildlife and leisure resorts such as The Baagh Ranthambore, Jagira Gir, Richmonde Goa, Montclair Solan, Arawali Ranakpur), Ananta Spa & Resort (full-service luxury properties in Udaipur, Pushkar, Jaipur, Ajabgarh), and Ananta Express (mid-range hotels starting with Katra). The core technology stack is a Simplotel-powered booking engine and property management system supporting direct website reservations; distribution is supplemented by OTA partnerships with Goibibo and TripAdvisor.

Revenue is generated through five streams: room revenue, food and beverage (multi-cuisine and specialty restaurants), weddings and events (with banquet venues up to 90,000 sq. ft. at Ranakpur), the Ananta Holiday Club vacation ownership membership, and spa/wellness services operated in partnership with Tattva Spa and Mudra Spa. Pricing is per-night at the low end of the Indian luxury segment (e.g., INR 4,499-4,999 deluxe room packages at Arawali Ananta Elite, Ranakpur), with direct-booking benefits, seasonal packages, and F&B discounts. Beyond owned properties, Ananta Global Hospitality operates a third-party management model (Elite/Express/Inn tiers), and the company also runs the Ananta Institute of Hotel Management and Allied Studies (AIHMAS) in Jaipur and the Soul Festival wellness event IP, providing adjacent revenue and brand-marketing assets.
