The Indian Hotels Company (IHCL), South Asia's largest hospitality company, announced the signing of a Vivanta hotel in Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh. This hotel is a management contract with Mr. Pema Khandu.

Nestled in the gentle slopes of Tawang, Vivanta Tawang has a refreshing vernacular architecture using local materials. The hotel has 88 spacious rooms with breathtaking views of the valley. Surrounded by lush foliage, the hotel features waterfalls and imposing fort-like natural retaining walls, which is characteristic of the region. Facilities of the hotel include a multi-cuisine restaurant, a resto-bar and recreational facilities such as an indoor pool and spa, meeting rooms and a banquet hall for social and business gatherings. It is a Brownfield project slated to open in 2022.

Situated in the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh, Tawang is located at an elevation of approximately 10,000 ft. to the east of Bhutan. Famous for Tawang Monastery, one of the world's largest Buddhist monasteries, it attracts travellers for its unique tribal culture, and picturesque vistas.
