American hotel chain G6 Hospitality LLC opens 1st property in India

US-based G6 Hospitality LLC and domestic company Auromatrix holdings have announced opening the former's first property under international brand 'Hotel 6' in India at Zirakpur, Punjab on the outskirts of Chandigarh.

'Hotel 6' Chandigarh, Zirakpur, is a 175 room hotel spread over 6 floors.

'Hotel 6' was ranked as one of the ten top hotel companies in the USA in 2015.
