Team Internet Moguls took the challenge and came up with something that is unique and easy to navigate. We believe in walking hand in hand with modern trends and providing cutting-edge technology to our clients. Change is inevitable, so we decided to take a step further and present an all new website that is fast and easy to navigate to the visitors. We have concentrated more on the destinations where Lemon Tree Hotels have their establishments as now the hotel's section is more about location specific rather than hotel specific, which makes it easier for anyone to find a hotel in the city they are planning to visit.”
