The property has 80 rooms and suites, a multi-cuisine coffee shop and a recreation bar.

Facilities at Lemon Tree Premier, Jabalpur include banquet and meeting areas, a spa, a swimming pool, and a fitness centre.

It will be managed by Carnation Hotels, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lemon Tree Hotels.

Situated on Naudra Bridge, the property is around 2km from Jabalpur railway station and 16km from Jabalpur Airport.

The opening brings Lemon Tree Hotels’ operational portfolio in Madhya Pradesh to four properties. A further 11 hotels are in the pipeline.

Lemon Tree Hotels president Vishvapreet Singh Cheema said: “The opening of Lemon Tree Premier, Jabalpur adds an important dimension to our footprint in Madhya Pradesh, strengthening our ability to serve its diverse business, administrative and leisure travel markets.

“With an established portfolio in Indore and Bhopal, and a leisure-led presence in Bandhavgarh, our entry into Jabalpur further broadens our network across some of the state’s key travel corridors.

“Located right in the city centre, this hotel is well positioned to serve the city’s growing business and institutional demand, while also catering to travellers exploring the wider region.

“With this opening, we now have four operational hotels in the state, with eleven more properties in the pipeline. Our focus is to build a well-diversified portfolio that gives us relevance across the different demand centres of the region.”

Earlier this month, Lemon Tree Hotels signed deals for two new properties in Bodhgaya, Bihar.
