Hospitality group Accor has partnered with Javi Home for Fairmont Rishikesh, Himalayas, adding to its luxury development pipeline in India.
Set to open in 2031 in the tranquil Shivpuri Range of Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, the upcoming resort will bring Fairmont’s renowned service, destination-led experiences, and distinctive approach to luxury hospitality to one of India’s most revered wellness and spiritual destinations.
Fairmont Rishikesh, Himalayas will span across approximately 16 acres of pristine landscape, featuring 220 guestrooms, four dining venues, 3,000 square meters of event space, a spa, fitness center, swimming pool, kids’ club, and a range of thoughtfully curated guest experiences.
Fairmont Hotels & Resorts is one of Accor’s leading luxury brands globally, with more than a century of history, and landmark hotels positioned in extraordinary destinations worldwide – from The Plaza in New York City and The Savoy in London to Fairmont Peace Hotel in Shanghai and Fairmont Royal Palm in Marrakech. In India, Fairmont continues to grow its presence with Fairmont Jaipur, Fairmont Mumbai, and Fairmont Udaipur, alongside upcoming openings in Shimla Fagu, Goa, and Agra, further reinforcing the brand’s commitment to bringing its renowned hospitality to exceptional destinations across the country.
The expansion coincides with the ongoing increase in demand for luxury hospitality experiences in the Shivpuri-Rishikesh region. The location offers a great chance to provide world-class hospitality while meeting the growing demand for immersive, nature-led, and experience tourism, and fill the gap of branded luxury resorts in the region.
Commenting on the signing, Ranju Alex, CEO, Accor, South Asia said, "Another significant turning point in the strategic growth of the Fairmont brand in India is the signing of Fairmont Rishikesh, Himalayas. One of the most alluring luxury travel locations in the nation is Rishikesh, where spirituality, wellness, and immersive travel come together. This initiative demonstrates our dedication to providing outstanding hospitality to locations that provide genuine and significant experiences while bolstering our premium portfolio throughout the area.”
