Accor, a global leader in hospitality, has announced the signing of Pullman Dehradun Airport, reinforcing its commitment to growing its premium portfolio across India. Slated to open in early 2029, this move marks a strategic expansion into high-potential destinations nationwide.
Set against the scenic backdrop of the Doon Valley at the base of the Himalayas, the upcoming hotel promises a blend of contemporary design and immersive guest experiences. Its prime location offers seamless connectivity to both Dehradun and Rishikesh, positioning it as a top choice for leisure travellers, corporate guests, and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) groups.
Pullman Dehradun Airport will feature 200 stylishly appointed rooms and suites, designed for both comfort and practicality. Guests can look forward to a curated dining experience with an all-day restaurant, a specialty venue, and a vibrant bar and lounge. The property will also offer 1,000 square metres of versatile event space, alongside wellness amenities including a spa, fitness centre, and swimming pool — creating a vibrant lifestyle hub for modern travellers.
Aniruddh Kumar, Vice President of Development, India & South Asia, Accor said “We are thrilled to bring the Pullman brand to Dehradun, a destination on the rise. This launch underscores our strategy to expand in key cities, offering travellers sophisticated stays that seamlessly integrate local charm. Pullman Dehradun Airport will raise the bar for premium hospitality in the region.”
