Orchid Regency was originally conceived as a super deluxe apartment complex. However the plan had to be changed owing to the fast developing tourist market of Thiruvananthapuram where a hotel which can provide the flexibility of an apartment with the service of a hotel was considered a necessity.

Orchid Regency is latest venture of Kottackattu group, a multi functional business group started by Sri KT George, who has been an NRI builder and a civil engineer by profession. Kottackattu Medicare Hospital at Eraviperoor Pathanamthita Dist. and Kottakkattu Convention Center at Nalanchia, Thiruvananthapuram which can accommodate about 2500 persons are other units of this group. Shaharco Contracting LLC, Sharjah and Pinnacle Computer Systems LLC, Dubai are the overseas establishments.
