Hello there dude,
Well you have a pretty good profile, with a fantastic GMAT, good work experience. (of course I could use a whole lot more detail to get down into the nitty gritty of things)
If you're not so keen on going to study and live in the States, then there's not much need to bark up that tree is there
Esp. considering that there aren't many one-year programs. But good news: Europe and Asia have plenty of great one year programs. INSEAD, HEC, HKUST, NTU, CEIBS, the Indian schools (which I'm sure you k now about), Oxford, Cambridge could all be good options for you as they fit what you are looking for.
The one place in the US that really pops into mind though, given your goals is Cornell, which has both a one-year program and US' most famous hospitality school, so that's the one place I'd consider starting to look.

Thank you JonAdmissionado. I have checked the Cornell program and I am still figuring out whether MMH would really be equivalent to an MBA. Also, there is some tie-up between Cornell and Nanyang Singapore. The Cornell-Nanyang Institute of Hospitality Management (CNI) is a partnership between Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration, Ithaca NY, USA, and Nanyang Technological University's Nanyang Business School, Singapore. Please let me know in case you have more clarity on MMH vs MBA. What if I do not get a good opportunity in hospitality right after college?
