Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) marked its inaugural presence in Itanagar, Arunachal Pradesh, through the signing of a Vivanta hotel. Positioned in strategic proximity to Donyi Polo Airport, the 150-key hotel is a significant move in IHCL's strategy to establish a footprint in all state capitals. Puneet Chhatwal, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of IHCL, emphasized Itanagar's role as a major hub for culture, economy, education, and recreation. This new hotel, IHCL's second in Arunachal Pradesh, contributes to the development of a fresh circuit connecting Guwahati, Itanagar, and Tawang.

In collaboration with Taling Eichir Infra LLP, IHCL brings its signature hospitality to Itanagar. The hotel boasts a range of facilities, including a multi-cuisine restaurant, bar, swimming pool, health club, fitness center, and state-of-the-art banqueting space exceeding 6500 sq. ft., encompassing meeting rooms.

Joram Jumse, Partner at Taling Eichir Infra LLP, expressed delight in partnering with IHCL, recognizing the hospitality leader's reputation for pioneering destinations and putting them on the tourism map. This collaboration aims to infuse Vivanta's stylish spirit into Itanagar's hospitality landscape.

Nestled amidst the scenic beauty of Arunachal Pradesh, with the snowcapped Himalayas to the north and the mighty Brahmaputra to the south, Itanagar serves as a nature lover's paradise. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role as a transit point for travelers exploring the enchanting locales of Tawang, Ziro Valley, Pasighat, and Mechukha.

IHCL's foray into Itanagar enhances its Northeast India portfolio, bringing the total to nine hotels, including five under development. This strategic expansion aligns with IHCL's commitment to providing warm Indian hospitality and world-class service. The Indian Hotels Company Limited, founded by Jamsetji Tata, continues to uphold its legacy since the opening of its first hotel, The Taj Mahal Palace, in Bombay in 1903. Today, IHCL manages a global portfolio of 280 hotels, with 84 more in various stages of development across four continents, spanning 11 countries and over 100 locations. As India's largest hospitality company by market capitalization, IHCL remains listed on the BSE and NSE, setting new benchmarks in the industry.
