CG Hotels and Resorts Unites Properties from Tiger Land to Crown Plaza Under One Brand
Kathmandu: Hotels and resorts operated under CG Holdings will now be managed collectively under the unified brand CG Hotels and Resorts. During an event held in Lalitpur on Thursday, Suryansh Chaudhary, Managing Director of the company, announced that all hotels and resorts owned by CG Holdings will henceforth operate under CG Hotels and Resorts.
According to Chaudhary, CG Hotels and Resorts currently includes the five-star Crown Plaza located in Pulchok, Lalitpur, The Plaza, Tigerland Safari in Jagatpur, Chitwan, Bhangeri Durbar Resort in Nagarkot, and Meraki Wellness Retreat in Kathmandu. Upcoming hotels and resorts will also operate under the same umbrella.
The Crown Plaza in Pulchok is slated to begin operations within 2023 (2083 BS). Its management will be overseen by the global hospitality company InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG). This marks IHG’s return to Nepal through CG Holdings after nearly six years, having previously exited following the management of the Soaltee Hotel. The hotel’s foundation was laid in April 2019 (2076 BS), and it is now preparing to open this year.
Another prominent property under CG Hotels and Resorts is the Bhangeri Durbar Resort in Nagarkot, which began construction eight years ago and opened last April. The resort is named after the historic Bhangeri Durbar built by Chandra Shamsher in Nagarkot. The company has also incorporated Tigerland Safari, located in Jagatpur, Chitwan, into its portfolio. This wildlife resort, managed by the international hospitality chain Lemon Tree, lies along the northern boundary of Chitwan National Park.
Additionally, The Plaza, Nepal’s largest multi-venue complex situated in Pulchok, Lalitpur, operates under CG Hotels and Resorts. Meraki Wellness Retreat, located in Budhanilkantha, Kathmandu, is also part of the group. Situated close to the Kathmandu Valley, Meraki prioritizes wellness while offering an immersive experience akin to forest stay accommodations.
