EasyJet owner to build 38 budget hotels

EasyHotel, part of the London-based no-frills easyGroup, is planning to build 38 budget hotels in 17 countries, with six in India.

Istithmar Hotels, a subsidiary of investment group Istithmar, will work with easyGroup, investing over $400m over the next five years to build the properties.

The 3,800 new rooms will be manufactured as self-contained units, which will then be constructed into a hotel, EasyHotel said.

EasyHotel opened its first budget hotel in 2005 in central London with rooms starting at £20 per night
