Grand Continent Hotels Limited has launched Grand Continent Premier – Vellore, marking the brand’s 32nd property and further expanding its presence across South India. Located at Green Circle on New Bypass Road, the 50-room hotel caters to business travellers, medical tourists, students and their families, leisure travellers and pilgrimage groups visiting Vellore.
Vellore has developed into a significant hub for healthcare, education, and business travel, supported by institutions such as Christian Medical College (CMC) and Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT). The city also benefits from its proximity to Ranipet, a major industrial centre in the region. Against this backdrop, the new hotel provides convenient access to important destinations across Vellore and its surrounding areas.
Speaking about the launch, Ramesh Siva, Founder & Managing Director, Grand Continent Hotels Limited, said, “Vellore is an important market for us because of the diverse travel it attracts. The city sees a steady movement of people for healthcare, education, and business as well as leisure, creating demand for comfortable and reliable accommodation across segments. With the launch of our 32nd property, we are further strengthening our presence in South India while continuing to expand into markets where we see sustained demand. Our focus remains on building a well-connected portfolio across business, healthcare, pilgrimage, and leisure destinations, while maintaining consistency in service and guest experience.”
With the Vellore opening, Grand Continent Hotels now operates 32+ hotels across 20+ cities with more than 2,000 keys. The company continues to expand through an asset-light, lease-led business model, with properties serving business, pilgrimage, and leisure markets across India. Additionally, its portfolio includes an international presence in the USA and Dubai.
Grand Continent Premier – Vellore offers 50 rooms across Deluxe Twin, Deluxe King, and Family Room categories. The hotel combines contemporary accommodation with facilities designed to serve both individual guests and larger groups.
For dining, the property features Flavours, an 80-cover multi-cuisine restaurant serving Indian and international dishes. The restaurant also provides Jain meal options. In addition, guests can visit Unwind Bar, an 80-cover bar designed for socialising and relaxation.
