Lemon Tree Hotels signed a license agreement for an 85-room property in Janakpur, Nepal, expanding its Nepal portfolio to 8 hotels and international footprint to 11 properties across Nepal, Bhutan and Dubai.

Why this matters

Adds to Lemon Tree's expansion streak following 200-key Maharashtra signings in Tadgaon and Igatpuri, and a Sri Ganganagar property that took Rajasthan to 23 hotels. International push now scales alongside domestic growth.

Store-opening signals remain steady with 277 announcements over the past 90 days.
