MakeMyTrip Partners with Minor Hotels to Expand Access to Over 560 Premium and Luxury Stays Worldwide
MakeMyTrip, India’s leading online travel company, today announced a strategic partnership with Minor Hotels, a global hospitality group with a portfolio of over 560 properties worldwide. This partnership is part of MakeMyTrip’s broader strategy to expand its direct international hotel inventory. The platform has increasingly emerged as a go-to destination for Indian travellers booking international hotels. In the last year, MakeMyTrip sold over 77,900 unique hotels across more than 4,350 cities in 192 countries. The number of unique hotels sold in 2025 grew by 17% compared to 2024. Notably, nearly one-third of these bookings were in the premium hotel category, with an average room-night fare exceeding ₹15,000.
With
this announcement, Indian travellers will gain access to premium and luxury
international stays across globally recognised brands from the Minor Hotels portfolio
including Anantara Hotels & Resorts, Elewana Collection, The Wolseley
Hotels, Tivoli Hotels & Resorts, Minor Reserve Collection, NH Collection
Hotels & Resorts, nhow Hotels & Resorts, Avani Hotels & Resorts,
Colbert Collection, NH Hotels & Resorts, Oaks Hotels, Resorts & Suites
and iStay Hotels. The collaboration broadens international stay options for
Indian travellers across city hotels and resort destinations in Europe, Asia,
and the Middle East. With a strong presence across major global travel hubs as
well as emerging destinations, the Minor Hotels portfolio caters to varied
travel needs, from business and short city breaks to leisure and longer-stay
holidays.
Currently,
60 Minor Hotels properties are live on the MakeMyTrip platform, with the
listing expected to scale rapidly across Minor Hotels’ wider global portfolio.
Of these, 12 properties currently carry the ‘Loved by Indians’ tag. A key focus
of the partnership is progressively aligning more international properties with
Indian traveller expectations, expanding the ‘Loved by Indians’ footprint
across key international destinations. Loved by Indians is a trusted
marker on MakeMyTrip that helps Indian travellers identify international stays
offering greater familiarity and comfort, such as dining options aligned to
Indian preferences, convenient city locations, and ease of access.
Commenting
on the partnership, Rajesh Magow,
Co-Founder & Group CEO, MakeMyTrip, said, “Our partnership with
Minor Hotels is part of our broader strategy to deepen engagement with leading
global hospitality groups and strengthen the quality and breadth of
international stays on our platform. Beyond expanding access, this
collaboration reflects Minor Hotels’ commitment to working closely with us to
better serve the needs of Indian travellers across international destinations.”
Ian Di Tullio, Chief Commercial Officer for Minor
Hotels added, “Our
global portfolio, strong presence across key travel destinations, and
commitment to exceeding guest expectations position us well to serve the
evolving needs of Indian travellers. As demand and share from India continue to
grow, we are absolutely focused on strengthening our offering across
properties, with added features and experiences that resonate more closely with
Indian guests.”
