Shillong ( Meghalaya), Oct 14 : Crowborough Hotel in Meghalaya, which has now been named as Taj Vivanta was inaugurated by state chief minister Conrad Sangma on Friday.
The former Crowborough Hotel stood abandoned in Police Bazar, the marketing hub of Shillong for almost 4 decades and was a long unfulfilled dream of the people of the State.
The property is owned by the Meghalaya Tourism Development Corporation (MTDC) and has been leased out for a period of 33 years on a PPP mode to be operated by the Indian Hotel Company Limited (IHCL).
Taking to twitter, Conrad Sangma wrote, “With a huge feeling of fulfilment and after a long wait of 36 years, I am filled with immense joy today to inaugurate Meghalaya’s First 5 Star Hotel ‘Vivanta Meghalaya, Shillong’.”
