The signing signifies IHG’s debut in the Sudurpashchim Province, with an opening date set for Q1 2028.  In order to construct Holiday Inn Dhangadhi, a 115-key hotel in Dhangadhi, Nepal, IHG® Hotels & Resorts and Club Chaulani Ltd. have inked a management agreement. The deal, which is set to open in Q1 2028, represents IHG’s entry into the Sudurpashchim Province and underlines the company’s plan to increase its footprint in underserved, high-potential South Asian regions.  The Holiday Inn Dhangadhi will be situated in a mixed-use development in the centre of the city, around 8.5 kilometres from Dhangadhi Airport. The hotel is anticipated to be ideally situated to accommodate both leisure visitors to important regional destinations and business travellers, government representatives, and transit passengers due to its proximity to the India–Nepal border.  The hotel will have four food and beverage establishments, including an All Day Dining restaurant, a pool bar and a speciality restaurant, in addition to 115 luxurious guest rooms.
