Hotelier of the Year: Kapil Chopra, Vice President, Oberoi Hotels

I don’t usually make predictions about the hotel business – it is too risky – but I’m going to make one now: I would be very, very surprised if, within the next five years, Kapil Chopra does not become one of the leaders of India’s hotel business.
As the success of the Trident, Gurgaon, demonstrated some years ago, Kapil is an exceptional general manager, focused on details, capable of extracting the best from his staff and with a strategic vision of the hotel business: who would have expected the Trident to get the highest room rates in the NCR?
But as the rise of the Gurgaon Oberoi and his record as vice president in charge of other properties has shown, he is much more than a general manager. He is a corporate visionary, a savvy marketer, a smart deal-maker and a man with a deep understanding of how the hotel business works.

PERFECT HOTELIER
