Airbnb Hospitality Index ranks New Delhi as the most hospitable city and Maharashtra as the most hospitable state

Airbnb has released its annual Airbnb Hospitality Index that unveils the most hospitable destinations across India for local and international travelers. The study is based on the number of 5-star reviews in particular states around the country as a part of the global research at locations with over 500 trips in the last 12 months. In India, hospitality is deeply rooted in the diversity found in local culture, cuisine, lifestyle preferences and the way we welcome people into our homes.

  • Beyond the top 5:  Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu closely follow behind the top 5 states in the hospitality indexairbnbAmanpreet Bajaj, Country Manager, Airbnb – India, said “Hospitality is something which is intrinsic to Indian culture. Cultural, gastronomical and geographical elements come together in each location to offer something unique to travellers. The people to people connection enabled by technology is what makes these destinations a treasure trove for experience seeking travellers who return home with amazing stories and fulfilling experiences on Airbnb.”

Nalin Jha who hosts at India’s most wish listed house in New Delhi shares his hosting experience, “I remember an old saying in Sanskrit “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” which means the world is your family. I started to understand the profoundness of this philosophy after becoming an Airbnb host. After hosting hundreds of guests I realized how people across the globe are connected to each other through a common bond of friendship and that feeling is extremely overwhelming. Being an Airbnb host is like being a part of the global community and I feel privileged that I get to share the Indian hospitality with my guests from all over the world.”
