Focusing On the Logistics Part
For any business industry, mostly those associated, with hotels and food chains, the importance of logistics cannot be overlooked. The hotel property must be at a close proximity to the essential transit points like, airport, bus terminus and railway station. It is also desirable that the property lies close to the entertainment destinations like, multiplexes and shopping malls. When it comes to opening a hotel in Tadoba it must be ensured that the proper transportation services to the main city, airport, railway station, etc., is offered by the hotel authorities.
Minimum Area for a Hotel To Open

The Layout
Planning for the layout of your hotel is important. It is recommended to consult a professional interior designer for suggestion. Focus on every intricate detailing, so that it becomes easier to draw guests during the peak, as well as the off-seasons.

It would help in understanding the potential of your business in and around Tadoba. Remember, the survey must focus, within the area boundaries of Tadoba and areas surrounding, but not exceeding beyond the first 10-12 km. You can employ professional agents for the surveying part to measure the general market condition, within the proposed area while sneaking into the overall trends and the social lifestyle. This would help in understanding your targeted set of customers. At the same time, you must try to focus on the business strategies being employed by the competitors in the area. Try to learn about the hotel rates and the facilities being offered to travelers coming to Tadoba for Jungle weekend stay and jungle safari trips.
Tadoba is in the extreme interior part of the Chandrapur district, in the state of Maharashtra. The nearby villages still don’t understand the concept of urbanization and liberalization. Most of the area is filled, with deep, dense forest that draws the attention of the global travelers.

Offering them a substantial earning for their services would also be beneficial to stabilize your hotel business. Enjoying the support of locals can help big time in promoting your business and making it a brand.
