Partnership with KLG
The launch of Mercure Chandigarh Tribune Chowk is the result of a collaboration with KLG Group, Accor’s franchise partner in the region. Speaking at the launch, Ajay Grover, chief managing director at KLG Group, said, “Mercure’s entry into the Chandigarh market is a significant milestone in the hotel industry, not just for the city but also the upper north region. Known for its blend of quality amenities and warm service, Mercure brings a fresh perspective to the region’s hospitality scene.”
This is Accor’s second hotel in Chandigarh, the first being the Novotel Chandigarh Tribune Chowk, which opened in 2021.

Additionally, Mercure Chandigarh is part of Accor Live Limitless (ALL), the company’s lifestyle loyalty programme. Guests staying or dining at the hotel can avail the benefits of the programme, which includes access to rewards and exclusive services.
Last month, Accor announced its plans to introduce six new hotels across the premium, midscale, and economy segments, as well as three new luxury and lifestyle properties in India this year.
