Becoming a Hotelier: From Roots to Royalty

By Nilesh Kumar

Becoming a Hotelier: From Roots to Royalty

"From a small village in Bihar to serving world leaders at the G20 - this is not just a story of hospitality, but of resilience, sacrifice, and dreams fulfilled."

Born into a humble farming family, Nilesh Kumar's journey was anything but ordinary. From caring for cattle in his childhood to discovering an unexpected passion for hotel management, he defied every expectation placed on him. His path led him through The Leela, Taj, Oberoi, Marriott, and Accor - where he learned, struggled, grew, and eventually became a polished hotelier leading teams at some of India's most iconic properties.

This book is more than a memoir. It is a window into the world of hospitality - glamorous on the outside, but demanding and relentless within. It is also a heartfelt story of a father's sacrifices, a son's determination, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.
