Pride Premier Jodhpur, a distinguished addition to the Pride Group’s upscale portfolio, opened its doors to guests on 21st July 2025, marking a key milestone in the brand’s expansion across Rajasthan. Steering this landmark property is Mr. Rakesh Chauhan, the General Manager, who has overseen the project from its inception to its grand opening and now continues to lead its growth.
Appointed during the pre-opening phase in November 2024, Mr. Chauhan was entrusted with the hotel’s pre-opening strategy, operational readiness, and brand positioning. His sharp vision, hands-on leadership, and deep industry insight were instrumental in bringing the property’s concept to life. Under his guidance, Pride Premier Jodhpur has emerged as a blend of modern sophistication, regional charm, and elevated hospitality.
With over 25 years of hospitality experience, Mr. Chauhan is widely regarded as a specialist in pre-openings and operational excellence. Before this role, he successfully led the launch of Pride Premier Resort Ambaji (Gujarat) as Pre-Opening General Manager, further cementing his reputation as a results-driven leader.
An alumnus of IHM Chandigarh, he is known for his focus on strategic planning, team empowerment, and operational excellence. His leadership reflects Pride Hotels’ commitment to setting new benchmarks in guest experience and innovation.
I am excited to be part of this new chapter for Pride in Jodhpur. This property is a reflection of our team’s hard work, vision, and unwavering commitment to creating memorable guest experiences. – Rakesh Chauhan
As Pride Premier Jodhpur begins its journey under his stewardship, the hotel is set to redefine hospitality in the Blue City, offering an experience where contemporary luxury meets Rajasthan’s rich cultural heritage.
