“This up-and-coming region presents a promising opportunity, making it the perfect timing for forging such alliances. With this new property, we emphasise our focus on delivering exceptional hospitality experiences in emerging markets across India.” 

The hotel is within walking distance of the railway station, 7.5km from Gorakhpur International Airport, and close to the Gorakhnath Math Temple.

Gorakhpur has been gaining traction as a business hub, with a growing IT and startup sector and an upcoming IT Park.

All these developments are expected to enhance the city’s status as a key urban centre in the region, drawing business travellers and investors, and providing a boost to the local hospitality industry, ETHospitalityWorld.com noted.

With 69 signed alliances and more than 5,200 rooms across 59 cities, including Nepal, the brand continues to expand its footprint in the hospitality sector.
