Our Story

The journey of Piwood Hotels & Resorts began with a simple yet powerful belief — true hospitality is not merely about providing a place to stay; it is about making every guest feel welcomed, valued, cared for, and remembered.

From its humble beginnings, Piwood has grown with this philosophy at its heart. What started as a vision to create meaningful hospitality experiences has gradually evolved into a growing hospitality brand built on trust, warmth, commitment, and an unwavering passion for serving people.

Behind this journey is a founder whose heart and soul have been devoted to building something that goes beyond hotels. His vision, ideas, experiences, and constant pursuit of excellence have played an integral role in shaping Piwood and defining the values that guide us today. Every milestone in our journey carries a part of that vision — to create hotels where genuine Indian hospitality meets contemporary comfort, thoughtful service, and exceptional value.

Over the years, Piwood Hotels & Resorts has earned the trust of guests, partners, and associates and has created a special place in the hearts of the people we serve. Our growth has been shaped not only by numbers and destinations, but by relationships, experiences, and countless moments of hospitality shared with our guests.

Today, Piwood Hotels & Resorts is emerging as one of India's fastest-growing hospitality brands, with an ambitious vision to build a portfolio of 100+ hotels by 2029. As we expand across destinations, our purpose remains unchanged — to make every stay comfortable, every experience memorable, and every guest feel truly at home.

At Piwood, we understand that every traveller has a different story and a different reason for travelling. Whether it is a business trip, a family holiday, a romantic getaway, a celebration, or simply a much-needed escape, we strive to create an experience that feels personal and effortless.

Our hotels bring together the essentials that matter most — comfort, great cuisine, cleanliness, thoughtful service, genuine Indian hospitality, and value for money. We believe that luxury is not always defined by extravagance. Sometimes, it is the warmth of a familiar smile, a room prepared with care, a meal that reminds you of home, or a team member who goes that extra mile simply because it matters.

This belief inspires our people to go beyond expectations and create experiences that are both distinctive and heartfelt. From the moment a guest arrives, we aim to make them feel welcomed with unmatched care and personalized attention. We maintain high standards of cleanliness, hygiene, safety, and service because we understand that true hospitality begins with the comfort and wellbeing of our guests.

Our journey has also been one of continuous learning and evolution. Over the years, extensive analysis, research, operational experience, and groundwork have helped us understand what today's traveller truly values. We have continuously refined our standards, strengthened our operations, enhanced our services, and invested in our people — all with one objective: to make every Piwood stay better than the last.

Yet, amidst our growth and evolution, we remain grounded in what makes hospitality truly special.

Our people.

Piwood is known for its warm and grounded team, calm ambience, welcoming surroundings, and sincere approach to service. We believe that technology can make a hotel smarter, systems can make it more efficient, and design can make it more beautiful — but it is people who make a hotel memorable.

That is why, at Piwood, we don't simply welcome guests into our hotels; we welcome them into our world of hospitality.

Our ambition is to build a hospitality brand that India can be proud of — a brand that carries the warmth of Indian traditions while embracing contemporary standards, modern expectations, and a global outlook.

As we continue our journey towards becoming a 100+ hotel hospitality group, we remain committed to the values that brought us here: trust, integrity, warmth, excellence, innovation, and the timeless spirit of Indian hospitality.

Because for us, hospitality is not just a business.

It is a promise.

  • A promise to care.
  • A promise to serve.
  • A promise to create memories.

And above all, a promise to make every guest feel at home.

Welcome to Piwood Hotels & Resorts — where every stay has a story, and every guest becomes a part of ours.

MD's Message

In 2005, our hospitality journey took its first meaningful step with the creation of our very first hotel in Mahad. What began as a single property and a singular vision has, over the years, evolved into a much broader and more ambitious hospitality journey. Every destination, every partnership, every challenge, and every experience has added another chapter to our story.

Piwood Hotels & Resorts is evolving into a diversified hospitality group, bringing together premium and upscale hotels, smart economy stays, wellness, lifestyle, and experiential hospitality under one vision. With a strong foundation in operational excellence and innovation, we are expanding our horizons across India, ASEAN, the Middle East, and North Africa.

Our vision goes beyond building hotels — we aim to create an integrated hospitality ecosystem that delivers meaningful experiences and lasting value for guests, investors, partners, and hotel owners. Rooted in Indian hospitality and driven by a global outlook, Piwood is redefining the future of hospitality, one destination and one memorable experience at a time.

      Mission

      Exceptional Hospitality is the essence of all we do. At Piwood, our mission is to curate extraordinary experiences that delight, inspire, and linger in the hearts of our guests—each time, every time.

      “Atithi Devo Bhava”

      We have trained our team in a way that proudly upholds the decades-old legacy of "Atithi Devo Bhava" — a Sanskrit phrase meaning "The Guest is God." India is among the few countries in the world with a deep-rooted tradition of treating guests with the highest level of respect, care, and reverence. At Piwood, this timeless value is not just a belief, but a practice we live by every day.

      Serving humanity is the greatest service

      "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. Therefore, we will not fear, though the earth gives way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea."

      At Piwood, we care for you from the depths of our hearts. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by the coronavirus pandemic. We extend our deepest gratitude and salute to the frontline heroes who tirelessly worked to combat this global crisis.

      “No hungry kid”

      “A world where no child goes to bed hungry” — this is the vision we at Piwood are deeply committed to achieving

      Children are free from sin, filled with dreams and hope. They are innocent, kind-hearted, and represent the true essence of humanity. As the torchbearers of the next generation, they deserve love, care, and nourishment. At Piwood, we believe it is our moral duty to support and protect their future.

      The Piwood Promise

      At Piwood Hotels & Resorts, we believe that the finest experiences are created when thoughtful details come together effortlessly. Our commitment extends beyond providing accommodation; it is about creating a sense of comfort, confidence, and belonging.

      The Guest at the Heart of Everything We Do

      At Piwood Hotels & Resorts, our guests are the very purpose of our existence and the inspiration behind everything we do. We believe that exceptional hospitality begins with listening, evolves through understanding, and finds its true expression in exceeding expectations.
