The director general of the IHG Hotels & Resorts in Southwest Asia, Sudeep Jain, said: “We are delighted to strengthen our presence in Nepal with Holiday Inn Express & Suites Dhulabari.
“Based on the successful launch of Holiday Inn Resort Kathmandu Budhanilkantha with our partners, the new signature in Dhulabari testifies to the confidence, alignment and the shared vision that we have established together.”
With an opening scheduled for 2026, the next Holiday Inn Express & Suites will offer 99 rooms and suites, various catering options and a roof adjustment.
The hotel strategic location in the Jhapa district offers easy access to travelers, being close to the Nepal-India border in Kakarvitta and Chandragadi domestic airport.
In addition, the Pathibhara Devi temple, a pilgrimage site, is 15 km by car.
The President of Nepal East of the Hotel, Binita Thapa Khadka, said: “We are proud to extend our partnership with IHG Hotels & Resorts with the addition of a second hotel. Our work experience with the IHG for the operational excellence of Holiday Inn Kathmandu, making this next project a natural projection.

This development should respond to a mixture of business travelers and leisure, specifically benefiting from the growing commercial and agricultural industries in the region, said the IHG.
With a rarity of brand hotels in the region, the Dhulabari property should also become a space for meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (mice), as well as social gatherings.
