Chaudhary Group Begins Construction of Luxury Heritage Summit Hotel in Gorkha

In a major boost to Nepal’s tourism and hospitality sector, CG Hospitality, a subsidiary of the Chaudhary Group, has laid the foundation stone for a luxury heritage “Summit Hotel” in Gorkha. The project aims to position the region as an international luxury tourism destination while promoting high-end travel experiences.

Inspired by Kathmandu’s iconic Summit Hotel established in 1978, the new property will be developed as a luxury heritage resort blending modern amenities with authentic Nepali culture, according to CG Hospitality. Spread across approximately 30 ropanis of land, the hotel is expected to be completed and operational within 24 months. It will feature around 30 premium rooms, with rates expected to be around USD 500 per night, targeting both domestic and international tourists.

The primary objective of the project is to integrate Gorkha into Nepal’s luxury tourism circuit. Located near the historically significant Gorkha Durbar—the birthplace of King Prithvi Narayan Shah’s unification of Nepal—the project is expected to promote Nepal’s history, heritage, and culture on the global stage .CG Hospitality stated that the initiative reflects its continued confidence in Nepal’s tourism sector. Speaking on the occasion, Managing Director and CEO Rahul Chaudhary said Gorkha holds immense historical importance, and the project will showcase Nepal’s authenticity and heritage to the world. The hotel is also expected to generate employment opportunities, strengthen the local economy, and attract further investment, contributing to regional tourism-driven development.

Recently, Chaudhary Group also laid the foundation for the luxury “The Ritz-Carlton” hotel in Thamel, Kathmandu, in partnership with Marriott International, further expanding its hospitality footprint.

CG Hospitality Global currently operates more than 230 hotels and resorts across 130 destinations in 12 countries, with a portfolio exceeding 15,000 keys.
