Ramee Group to open six hotels in Middle East

Ramee Group of Hotels and Resorts has announced that it will be opening six hotels in the Middle East over the next three years.

The four and five star hotels are planned for Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain, with the first opening to be the Ramee Rose Hotel, a 103 room property which will open in Tecom, in Dubai in October 2010.

Ramee Group chairman and managing worker Raj Shetty said: “I will be concentrating on existing properties and focusing on the opening of Tecom this year.”

The plans to add these properties to the Ramee portfolio have not been slowed down by the global economic crisis.

“Recession is a part of the game so we have to work on it, cut costs in our operations. We are expecting another two years of low predictions and then after two years I think we will be out of the recession,” Shetty added.

In addition to the properties planned for the Middle East, Ramee Group is also opening five hotels in India which are intended to be operational by the end of 2013.

Ramee Group currently manages and operates 32 properties in the budget segment as hotels, resorts and apartments in the UAE, Bahrain, India and Oman.
