Starting his career with the Oberoi Hotels & Resorts in 2002, Deepak Pulavarti has worked with the Carlson Rezidor Group before joining AccorHotels. He consistently maintained high room cleanliness scores for ibis & Novotel Bengaluru Techpark since taking charge as executive housekeeper in 2015. ibis’ room cleanliness year to date (YTD) rating was 90 percent making it the #1 among 13 ibis hotels pan-India, while Novotel Bengaluru Techpark’s room cleanliness YTD rating was above 85 percent making it #3 among 13 Novotel hotels pan-India.
As a part of the Accor Planet-21 initiative, his team initiated the ‘Bin-liner free housekeeping operation’ and introduced high-density polyethylene (HDPE) as an inexpensive alternative to regular plastic bin bags. Pulavarti estimates that this move will save the hotel INR 10 lakh annually.
