KATHMANDU: A state-of-the-art hotel and resort developed by IME Group is set to officially begin operations in Gaindakot Municipality-1, Maulakali, from Monday.
Located at the upper station of the Maulakali Cable Car, Ila Hotel and Resort features 65 rooms including luxurious suites and deluxe accommodations.
The property also boasts a banquet and conference hall with a capacity of 1,000 guests, alongside modern amenities such as a restaurant, swimming pool, spa, and gym.
This new facility is expected to enhance the tourism experience in the region, making the historical and spiritual sites such as Narayani, Devghat, and Tribeni more accessible and attractive to both domestic and international tourists.
The integration of the cable car with the resort is seen as a major step toward promoting natural and cultural tourism in the area.
IME Group is actively investing in tourism infrastructure across all seven provinces of Nepal.
To date, cable car systems are operational in three provinces, and with the opening of Ila Hotel and Resort, integrated tourism projects are now running in two provinces.
Additionally, construction of a hotel is underway at the top station of the Lumbini Cable Car in Basantapur.
In the far-western region of Kailali, IME Group is simultaneously developing a cable car, hotel, and resort, all expected to come into operation within the next year.
Similarly, a cable car project is under development in Pathibhara, Taplejung, further expanding the group’s nationwide tourism initiatives.
