Think swanky resorts and posh city hotels - that's the vibe OYO is going for with Palette. These swanky new stays will be perfect for those seeking a more premium experience, without breaking the bank. Plus, they'll be strategically located in popular tourist destinations and business hubs across India.

Here's an interesting twist - OYO will be directly managing some of these Palette hotels, similar to their original OYO Rooms model. This means they'll have more control over the quality and service you experience. The first of these self-operated hotels is set to open in Morbi, Gujarat, a booming economic hub known for its ceramics industry.
Not the first splash into luxury
This isn't OYO's first foray into fancy stays. They already have a bunch of swanky brands under their umbrella like Townhouse Oak and Collection O. Plus, they've been adding a whopping 1800 new properties to their premium portfolio this year alone!
Palette actually started as a pilot program last year, with 10 resorts launched in cities like Jaipur and Hyderabad. The response must have been good because OYO is planning to add a whopping 40 more Palette resorts by next quarter!
