Weekend, festival holidays fuel Mysuru’s tourism sector

The weekend, coupled with State Government holidays on Monday and Tuesday owing to Ramzan and Basava Jayanti has given holiday-makers a 4-day breather and is reflected in the surge in visitors’ footfall to the city.

From April 30 to May 2, all the hotels in the heart of Mysuru have declared a 100% occupancy rate while facilities beyond the Outer Ring Road are reporting 80% occupancy rates and inquiries continue to pour in.
