With over 1,300 hotels across India, CheckIn claims to become the countryโ€™s largest premium value hotel chain. Each property under the CheckIn Collection will be professionally managed by dedicated teams and partner management companies to ensure consistency, reliability, and guest satisfaction. The brand promises a standard experience across all hotels, trained staff, wholesome breakfast, clean bedrooms, Kimirica Splash & Dash kits, and in-room entertainment beyond free Wi-Fi. Within the portfolio, Townhouse Hotels serve as the entry tier, while Sunday Hotels represent the premium end of the collection.
