Northeast India, sometimes known as "Paradise Unexplored," is a compelling region that entices intrepid tourists with its pristine beauty and cultural diversity. The pristine region is a treasure trove of magnificent scenery, deep forests, and rich cultural heritage. In the past year, several new hotels have opened in the Northeast, opening up options for a luxury stay in the midst of nature. Several luxury hotels are coming up in 2024-25. For instance, in a significant development in Nagaland, the Hotel Polo Towers Group joined hands with the state's Department of Tourism to announce its first-ever 5-star properties, marking a significant boost to tourism. Here are some 5-star hotels that opened last year in the Northeast.

Vivanta Meghalaya, Shillong

The first 5-star luxury establishment in Shillong offers 87 thoughtfully designed rooms and 14 spacious suites that will ensconce you in comfort, whether you are in town to revel in some of the most rousing rock shows in the country or for business or to experience cherry blossom trees in full bloom. The choice of materials includes timber and Cherra stone (that gives Cherrapunji its name). Meghalaya’s rolling hills are reflected in the central atrium’s screen design. A glass pyramid crowns the atrium creating a window to misty mornings and starry, starry nights. Mynt, the all-day restaurant celebrates spices and flavours of the Northeast, while also serving up popular classics and global favourites. More info here.
