The city whose tourism season peaks during Dasara and summer holidays, is emerging as a popular year-end destination in recent years.
This is true this year as well and the hospitality sector in Mysuru has declared a sell-out of nearly 10,500 rooms that are otherwise available for tourists by way of accommodation. All the rooms from Christmas to New Year have been booked in advance and this includes the resorts on the city outskirts, holiday homes, and guest houses, said C. Narayanagowda, president of Mysore Hotel Owners Association.
He said there may be a few rooms left for those properties with a tie-up with online travel aggregators. Mysuru has about 425 hotels catering to the requirements ranging from standard budget category to those in the luxury segment. The nearly 10,500 rooms have been booked for the duration December 23rd to December 31st.
