Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd has strengthened its footprint in North India with the signing of a new 36-key Regenta property in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand. The expansion underscores the group’s strategy to grow in high-demand spiritual and adventure tourism markets.

Located in Tapovan, the upcoming hotel will offer convenient access to the River Ganga, leading ashrams and major adventure-sports locations. The property will feature well-appointed rooms, a multi-cuisine restaurant, banqueting and conference spaces for weddings and corporate events, and wellness amenities including a spa and fitness centre.

The development is being undertaken in partnership with IRIS Park Leisures Private Limited. The partners said the collaboration aims to bring the Regenta experience to Rishikesh by combining local tranquillity with quality service and modern amenities.
