Royal Orchid Hotels (ROHL) signed a new 43-key Regenta Place in Baddi, as part of its continued expansion in Himachal Pradesh and North India. Developed in association with Sarvan Kumar, Director, The Golden Castle, the resort is expected to open in September 2025 and will be operated under a management agreement.
The property reflects ROHL’s asset-light model and its focus on offering guests authentic, culturally rooted stays paired with contemporary comforts.
The move aligns with the group’s strategy to tap into high-potential, underserved destinations and cater to the increasing demand for premium hospitality experiences beyond metro cities.
Nestled in the scenic Shivalik Hills and positioned within a thriving pharmaceutical and industrial belt, Regenta Place Baddi is designed to serve both business and leisure travellers. It will offer a rooftop restaurant and bar, an all-day dining space, a spa, gym, rooftop swimming pool, and a dedicated kids’ zone. Ideal for families and corporate groups alike, the resort also features 5,627 sq. ft. of banquet space, a 1,482 sq. ft. conference hall, and a sprawling 10,000 sq. ft. lawn, making it perfectly suited for MICE events, destination weddings, and corporate gatherings.
Commenting on the signing, Arjun Baljee, President, Royal Orchid Hotels, said, “Himachal Pradesh continues to be a sought-after destination, offering both scenic escapes and strategic connectivity for business travellers. Baddi, with its proximity to key industrial zones and the tranquil backdrop of the Shivalik Hills, perfectly embodies this dual appeal. This signing not only strengthens our presence in North India but also aligns with our vision to expand into high-potential, underserved markets. In partnership with Sarvan Kumar, Director of THE GOLDEN CASTLE, we are excited to bring the Regenta experience to Baddi and look forward to welcoming guests seeking convenience, comfort, and genuine hospitality in the heart of Himachal.”
