Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), India’s largest hospitality company, has further strengthened its presence in Bhutan with the opening of Taj Paro Resort & Spa. The launch marks a significant step in IHCL’s growth across the Indian Sub-Continent and reinforces its long-standing partnership with CG Hospitality Global, a member of CG Corp Global.

Commenting on the development, Mr. Puneet Chhatwal, Managing Director & CEO, IHCL said, “In line with our strategy of growing our footprint in the Indian Sub-Continent we are delighted to announce the opening of Taj Paro Resort & Spa. The eternal charm of the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan makes it among one of the world’s most sought-after travel destinations. This addition strengthens our over two-decade strong partnership with the CG Hospitality Global, a member of the CG Corp Global, with a portfolio of hotels across the Middle East, Greater Himalayan and Indian ocean region.”

Set in the tranquil Paro valley and located beneath the revered Tiger’s Nest monastery, the 45-key Taj Paro Resort & Spa, Bhutan offers mountain-facing rooms designed to reflect the calm and beauty of the Himalayas. Guests can unwind at the Paro Lounge & Bar, which features signature cocktails and a curated selection of Bhutanese wines. Vista, the resort’s all-day dining restaurant, serves a blend of regional and global cuisines prepared in open kitchens, with views overlooking the sacred monastery.

The resort also offers a range of wellness and leisure facilities, including an indoor heated swimming pool, Taj’s signature J Wellness Circle spa with holistic treatments, and a modern fitness centre, creating a balanced retreat for both relaxation and rejuvenation.

Highlighting the partnership, Dr. Binod Chaudhary, Chairman, CG Corp Global, said, “We are proud of CG Hospitality’s enduring partnership with Tata Group’s IHCL, a collaboration that has flourished for over 25 years.
