Lumbini focus
The 175-guestroom property, Hyatt Regency Lumbini, will be the second hotel with the Golyan Group. It’s expected to open by 2028.
The hotel will be spread across 11 acres featuring 175 guest rooms, convenient dining options, events and meeting spaces, and a range of amenities including a fitness centre, a wellness spa, an outdoor pool, and other entertainment facilities.
Lumbini is a popular tourist destination, with UNESCO World Heritage status and Lumbini’s vast gardens with historical treasures.
The property will be located within short driving distance of the popular pilgrimage destination Mayadevi Temple. It will also be close to the Gautan Buddha International Airport, the city of Butwal, and the Nepal-India border.
The property will be branded under Hyatt’s Hyatt Regency umbrella, one of the group’s high-end “Timeless Collection” properties.
Ambitious growth plans
Hyatt has ambitious growth plans for Southwest Asia, with vice president of development for India & Southwest Asia, Dhruva Rathore, noting that Nepal continues to play a significant role in the country’s growth strategy.
“The profound cultural and spiritual appeal of Lumbini, with its rich heritage, positions it as a compelling destination for travellers and locals alike,” he said.
“It also reaffirms Hyatt’s commitment to thoughtfully expanding our brand footprint in destinations preferred by our guests, World of Hyatt members, customers, and owners.”
Hyatt’s current portfolio in India and Southwest Asia consists of 52 properties, 50 in India and two in Nepal, across nine brands including Andaz, Alila, Hyatt, Hyatt Regency, Hyatt Centric, Hyatt Place, Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt and JdV by Hyatt.
