The way guests choose the hotels they wish to stay in today is guided by how sustainable and local the property is and how it can offer guests an insight into the same.

Located on the Dehradun-Mussoorie Road in Uttarakhand, Hyatt Regency Dehradun is the first 5-star hotel in Dehradun and the largest luxury hotel in the state of Uttarakhand. The hotel offers 263 rooms across seven floors, four distinctive food & beverage venues, each with an alfresco seating option, Regency Club, Rooftop Pool, Spa & Salon, Stay Fit Studio, and Camp Hyatt.

Being well-connected to major Indian cities, the hotel's unique location enables the guests to explore what Dehradun has to offer. Be it scenic mountain or forest treks/ hikes, exploring mind-rolling monasteries, or visiting iconic properties. Designed by Giampiero Peia, the Milan-based Italian architect, the hotel's design is based on the theme of Pine trees and their elements, representing Dehradun in the interior space with a perfect balance of luxury and nature. "Some designs also include mountainous leaves of Dehradun engraved on a collage of different woods, overlayed by a magnificent brass leaf. Inspired by the radial language of the fir pine leaves, a brass mural is placed that adds the perfect accent to the luxurious interiors. Some of the artwork also includes a collage of 3D carved stone murals predicting abstract flora life of Uttarakhand," says Harkaran Singh, General Manager, Hyatt Regency Dehradun.
