December 5, 1968. Three friends started a venture in an upcoming hospitality industry in Kolhapur - Hotel Opal.
Today after 45 years, it has become a brand with a speciality of Kolhapuri Tambda & Pandhra Rassa. People from all over India & the world come to Kolhapur to visit Mahalaxmi Temple (Goddess Ambabai) & relish the Kolhapuri Cuisine at Hotel Opal.
Today, brand Opal has gained not only a strong brand loyalty but also a widespread world of mouth publicity for it's 'Hospitality with Simplicity'.
Opal's cuisine is a natural choice not only for Kolhapurians but also for people thronging from all over India & the world to Kolhapur.
In 2012; Opal was awarded with the Times Foodie Award for the best local cuisine. This award is a yet another feather on the Opal's throne.
We are always here to serve our guests with our specialty Kolhapuri cuisine & a tradition of hospitality with simplicity.
