A subsidiary of international hotels chain is being constructed as the first-ever five-star accommodation facility at the famous hill station.
The premier while addressing the ceremony said “the construction of the hotel in Nathiagali is a big step towards creating wealth from tourism” adding that “this will attract more people to Pakistan”.
Khan further said that the next step after the construction of this facility is the development of resorts and skiing facilities which will garner international tourists.
