OYO will build 500 new hotels in the cities that will host the 2023 ODI World Cup to ensure that fans have a comfortable stay.
The ODI World Cup, which will start on October 5, will take place in the cities hosting 500 new hotels, according to a statement releazed by hospital technology platform OYO on Friday, July 7. Notably, hotels near Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium have generated a lot of attention recently after numerous fans criticized the prices as being excessively costly for the October 15 match between India and Pakistan. Following suit, other medical technology platforms developed a variety of fresh approaches, and OYO was the most recent to raise the bar.
Any major event sees a significant increase in travel demand, and the 2017 ODI World Cup is no exception. Companies are exhibiting interest in the potential opportunity to increase their revenue, thus OYO must move rapidly to seize the opportunity. Their spokesperson has already acknowledged the recent development and indicated that offering welcoming and reasonably priced lodging during the World Cup is their top priority.
“In order to accommodate the demand for the Cricket World Cup, OYO will build 500 hotels in the host cities over the next three months. The representative told Economic Times, “We want to make sure that everyone who travels from afar to watch their favourite teams has access to nice and reasonably priced lodging.”
Like OYO, the online travel agency MakeMyTrip has extended an invitation to the supporters for a relaxing stay throughout the competition. To assist visitors in selecting the best lodging choice, the company also implemented a new feature that will indicate the distance between lodging and the city’s cricket stadium.
In a few places around the nation, we have noticed a noticeable increase in people looking for homestay accommodations for the months of October and November. This is encouraging and shows that cricket fans are more open than ever to considering homestays as a lodging choice, according to Parikshit Choudhury, chief business officer of MakeMyTrip.
For cricket fans, he said, “a large percentage of homestay properties in cricket centres across October and November is still available at a reasonable price.”
