In a groundbreaking development for Nagaland’s tourism sector, the Hotel Polo Towers Group has forged a partnership with the Department of Tourism, Government of Nagaland, to introduce the State’s first-ever 5-Star properties, informed a DIPR report. This significant agreement encompasses the development of two remarkable projects: a 5-Star Hotel with a Mall in Dimapur and another 5-Star Hotel in Kohima. Combined, these projects will feature over 200 extravagant rooms.
The estimated total Investment value for both projects, both directly and indirectly, stands at a staggering Rs 150 crore. Operated under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, these projects will follow the Design, Build, Maintain, Operate, Manage, and Transfer (DBMOMT) approach.
The Dimapur establishment is set to offer top-notch accommodations, multiple dining options, entertainment centers, and retail outlets, positioning itself as a comprehensive lifestyle destination. In contrast, the Kohima project will prioritize delivering an unparalleled luxury hotel experience catering to both business and leisure travellers. These monumental ventures are set to redefine Nagaland’s tourism and economic landscape. The expected completion timeline for these projects is 3 to 4 years.
“It’s an honor to collaborate with the Tourism Department of the Government of Nagaland. These initiatives will not only invigorate the hospitality sector but also contribute to job creation and local economic growth. This aligns with our vision of establishing a hotel in every major city of the Northeast,” said Deval Tibrewalla, CEO and Director of Hotel Polo Towers Group.
