Ritz-Carlton Hotel global operations officer Bob Kharazmi said that this prolific period of growth underscores the rising demand for The Ritz-Carlton in additional locations around the world.

"Travellers are increasingly curious and venturing beyond their traditional vacation spots to explore cultural and lifestyle capitals in Asia, Europe, Middle East and the Americas.

"In tandem, we have also earmarked the Middle East, Asia, Australasia and the Indian Sub-continent as key development regions in the post-2016 period to maintain our growth momentum," Kharazmi added.

Over the last 20 months, the luxury hotel brand has opened nine properties, in Kyoto, Japan; Herzliya, Israel; Tianjin and Chengdu in China; Bangalore, India; Almaty, Kazakhstan; Aruba; Dorado Beach; Puerto Rico; and Vienna, Austria.
