Hyatt Hotels has outlined plans to open seven new hotels across India and Nepal in 2025 as part of its broader strategy to diversify its reach.
The new Hyatt properties will be based in locations such as Bhopal, Jaipur, Kochi, and Butwal, which were chosen to offer options for business, leisure, and religious tourists.
Looking ahead, Hyatt’s expansion in 2025 follows the company’s successful 2024, which saw 21 new hotel agreements signed in India and Southwest Asia.
This expansion will further strengthen the brand’s foothold in these growing markets.

This year, the company plans to enhance its presence in both business-oriented cities such as Ghaziabad and Kasauli, as well as leisure destinations, including Kochi and Vithalapur.
