DoubleTree by Hilton Set to Open in Chandigarh in 2025

2025-01-14

Hilton has announced the signing of DoubleTree by Hilton Chandigarh Kakrali, its first DoubleTree property in the Greater Chandigarh region. Scheduled to open in 2025, the hotel will be the area’s first branded property offering extensive banqueting facilities, catering to the region’s rising demand for weddings and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) events.

Strategically located in Kakrali, the hotel is a 15-minute drive from Panchkula IT Park and 25 minutes from Chandigarh IT Park. Its proximity to hill stations like Shimla, Kufri, and Kasauli makes it an attractive choice for both business and leisure travellers.

The property will feature over 7,500 sq ft of meeting and event spaces, contemporary guest rooms, suites, and cottages. Amenities include indoor and outdoor pools, a spa, a fitness centre, and a dedicated kids’ activity room.

Hilton’s South Asia portfolio now includes 56 hotels, with 11 DoubleTree by Hilton properties operating and eight more in development, underscoring the brand’s expansion in the region.
