Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), the nation’s leading hospitality enterprise, has unveiled plans for a new Gateway hotel in McLeodganj, Himachal Pradesh. This latest addition will be a brownfield project, integrating into the existing landscape.
Strategic Expansion in the Himalayas
“This latest signing aligns seamlessly with IHCL’s strategic objective to fortify our presence across Himachal Pradesh’s pivotal leisure destinations, which include Shimla, Manali, Dharamshala, Naldhera, and Sirmaur, among others,” stated Ms. Suma Venkatesh, Executive Vice President – Real Estate & Development, IHCL. “McLeodganj, with its profound cultural richness, is increasingly drawing both domestic and international visitors. We are particularly pleased to join forces with Mcleo Times Square for this exciting venture.”
Prime Location and Comprehensive Amenities
The forthcoming 65-key Gateway McLeodganj, Himachal Pradesh, boasts a prime location, situated just a short stroll from the revered Dalai Lama Temple, the official residence of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, and the Namgyal Monastery. Its proximity to the town center places it mere steps away from the vibrant McLeodganj market. Perched advantageously on a cliff, the hotel will command expansive views of the surrounding valleys and majestic snow-capped peaks. Guests can anticipate a full range of amenities, including an all-day dining restaurant, a bar, well-appointed meeting rooms, a modern fitness center, and a rejuvenating spa.
A Collaborative Vision for Authentic Hospitality
Mr. Rahul Pathania, representing Mcleo Times Square, expressed his enthusiasm, remarking, “We are thrilled to collaborate with IHCL to introduce the esteemed Gateway brand to McLeodganj. This partnership is set to offer guests an authentic yet contemporary hospitality experience in this vibrant destination.”
Nestled within the Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh, McLeodganj is a captivating blend of spiritual sanctuaries, breathtaking scenic landscapes, and bustling local markets. This unique combination attracts a diverse array of visitors, from spiritual seekers and avid trekkers to cultural enthusiasts.
With the inclusion of this new property, IHCL’s portfolio in Himachal Pradesh will expand to 13 hotels, with 8 currently under various stages of development.
