Summit Hotels and Resorts has announced the addition of Rungkhung Village Resort under its Signature Collection portfolio, further strengthening the brand’s presence across the Eastern Himalayan region.
Located in the scenic Dirang Valley overlooking the Kameng River, the boutique retreat is positioned as a mountain getaway designed for travellers seeking slower, experience-led holidays amidst the natural landscapes of Arunachal Pradesh.
The resort blends local Arunachali character with contemporary comfort while offering panoramic views of valleys, hills and riverfront surroundings.
The property features a range of accommodation options including Premium View Rooms and Junior Suites, each equipped with private balconies overlooking the valley and river.
Interiors have been designed using warm tones, modern amenities and locally inspired aesthetics aimed at creating a comfortable yet destination-rooted stay experience.
Dining at the resort centres around an all-day restaurant serving multi-cuisine offerings alongside regional Northeast Indian specialities within a valley-facing setting.
The property also includes landscaped gardens, outdoor relaxation areas and bonfire spaces designed to encourage guests to engage with the surrounding environment.
Guests staying at the resort will also have access to curated local experiences and nature-focused activities, reinforcing Dirang’s positioning as an emerging alternative to more crowded hill destinations.
The resort’s low-density layout and focus on privacy are intended to deliver a more immersive and peaceful stay experience.
Commenting on the addition, Sumit Mitruka, CEO, Summit Hotels and Resorts, said, “Dirang is an emerging destination with immense natural appeal, and we see growing interest from travellers looking for less crowded, experience-driven locations. Our approach has been to create a property that stays true to the destination while offering the comfort and consistency that guests expect from the Summit brand.”
The addition of Rungkhung Village Resort reflects Summit Hotels & Resorts’ continued strategy of expanding its boutique hospitality portfolio across the Eastern Himalayan belt with a focus on experiential and location-driven travel experiences.
