Revered as the birthplace of Lord Buddha, the serene and spiritually significant town of Lumbini stands as an unparalleled destination for tourists as it draws travelers from across the world to the sacred site. It also boasts an UNESCO World Heritage status, with Lumbini's vast gardens featuring historical treasures, including the Ashoka Pillar, diverse monasteries and international temples reflecting global Buddhist traditions and fostering cultural exchange.
Nestled on the banks of the scenic Dano River, the property will be conveniently located within a short driving distance from the highly visited pilgrimage destination, Mayadevi temple, as well as other major attractions. It will also be near the Gautam Buddha International Airport, the city of Butwal, and the Nepal–India border, providing global business and leisure travelers with seamless access. Hyatt Regency Lumbini is expected to open by 2028.
“Nepal continues to play a significant role in Hyatt’s growth strategy in the Southwest Asia region, and we look forward to continued collaboration with Golyan Group to bring international standards of hospitality to the province of Lumbini with the Hyatt Regency brand,” said Dhruva Rathore, vice president of development, India & Southwest Asia, Hyatt.
“The profound cultural and spiritual appeal of Lumbini, with its rich heritage, positions it as a compelling destination for travelers and locals alike. 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.”
“We are delighted to extend our collaboration with Hyatt to debut the first ever Hyatt Regency branded hotel in Lumbini,” said Akshay Golyan, managing director, Golyan Group.

We believe this hotel will become a landmark in the region and a key contributor to Nepal’s tourism industry.”
