Cygnett Hotels Strengthens Uttarakhand Tourism Footprint With New Cozzet Retreat Jim Corbett Launch

Cygnett Hotels & Resorts has expanded its growing portfolio with the signing of a new Cozzet by Cygnett property in Jim Corbett, Uttarakhand, marking another strategic step in strengthening its footprint in one of India’s most sought-after wildlife and leisure destinations.

The upcoming Cozzet Retreat Jim Corbett will introduce 51 well-appointed cottages designed to offer guests a comfortable and contemporary stay experience while staying connected with the natural surroundings. Reflecting the distinctive Cozzet identity, the accommodation combines warm wooden textures, soothing neutral shades and signature violet highlights with modern lighting, premium bedding and carefully selected amenities. The nature-inspired interiors are crafted to create a peaceful retreat where travellers can relax while experiencing the wilderness charm of Jim Corbett.

The property will also feature an all-day dining restaurant offering a diverse menu inspired by both regional and international flavours. Designed as a welcoming culinary space, the restaurant will provide guests with a comfortable setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner experiences. Complementing the dining facility, the retreat will include a 3,000 sq. ft. banquet area created for intimate celebrations, private gatherings and social occasions. The flexible venue will also cater to corporate requirements, including meetings, conferences, team activities and off-site events, supported by seamless hospitality services.

Located only 50 metres from the Mohan Gate of Jim Corbett National Park, Cozzet Retreat Jim Corbett offers travellers convenient access to one of India’s most iconic wildlife destinations. The property’s location allows visitors to enjoy jungle safari experiences while exploring the wider attractions of the Corbett region. Popular landmarks such as Garjiya Devi Temple, the Kosi River, Dhangarhi Museum, Corbett Waterfalls and the Jim Corbett Museum at Kaladhungi can be easily reached from the retreat.

Adding to its natural appeal, the property is surrounded by the region’s scenic landscape, with a river stream flowing along its rear side. All cottages are positioned to overlook the stream, offering guests a tranquil environment where nature becomes an integral part of the stay experience. With its blend of wildlife access, modern comfort and immersive surroundings, Cozzet Retreat Jim Corbett is set to become a distinctive hospitality addition for leisure travellers, nature enthusiasts and corporate guests visiting Uttarakhand.

Speaking on the signing, Sarbendra Sarkar, Founder & Managing Director, Cygnett Hotels & Resorts, said, “Jim Corbett is an established leisure market with strong year-round recognition and a steadily widening domestic traveller base. For us, the opportunity is to bring a dependable, value-led hospitality product to such high-potential destinations without diluting the experience that travellers associate with the location. The proximity to the safari gate and the natural setting make this property particularly well suited to that approach.”

Cygnett Hotels & Resorts’ latest signing reflects its broader growth strategy focused on entering promising leisure markets and strengthening its presence across diverse hospitality categories. Through Cozzet by Cygnett, its premium economy and micro-hospitality brand, the company aims to deliver modern, efficient and affordable stays built around its “Smart, Safe & Sensible” philosophy, combining essential facilities with a contemporary guest experience.

Cozzet by Cygnett currently has an expanding development pipeline of nearly 600 keys, with upcoming properties planned across key destinations including Noida, Ayodhya, Amritsar, Jaipur and Arunachal Pradesh. The addition of a second property in Jim Corbett further enhances the brand’s footprint in India’s rapidly growing leisure and regional tourism markets. As part of its long-term expansion roadmap, Cygnett Hotels & Resorts is working towards building a portfolio of over 100 hotels and 10,000 keys across India and South Asia by 2030.
