Indian Hotels Company (IHCL) has recently inked agreements for two new Taj-branded hotels in Bhutan, marking a significant expansion in the region. These upcoming hotels, located in Phobjikha and Paro, are both Brownfield projects, emphasizing IHCL's dedication to extending its presence in key leisure destinations.

The property will house an all-day diner, alfresco speciality restaurant, bar, along with spa and fitness facilities. Phobjikha offers opportunities for mountain treks and visits to the venerable Gangtey Monastery, all within a serene environment that leaves a lasting impression.
Dr. Binod Chaudhary, Chairman of CG Corp Global and CG Hospitality Global, emphasized the sustainability core of these two Bhutan hotels. The properties aim to showcase a unique blend of traditional Bhutanese charm and Taj's renowned hospitality, providing travelers an unforgettable stay in the Himalayan kingdom. This venture further solidifies the longstanding partnership between IHCL and the CG Group, spanning 25 years and 12 assets across six countries.
Bhutan, celebrated for its natural beauty, also serves as a hub for pilgrim and wellness tourism.

The company's portfolio, including iconic brands like Taj, SeleQtions, Vivanta, and Ginger, continues to offer a fusion of warm Indian hospitality and world-class service.
IHCL's growth trajectory remains robust, with 276 hotels currently under management and 83 more under development globally.

IHCL is recognized as India's largest hospitality company by market capitalization, with a strong presence across continents and a commitment to delivering exceptional experiences to its guests.
