The hotels in the Lumbini area have announced various offers in their services to customers to rev up their business hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. The hotels here have offered discounts on food and accommodation targeting domestic tourists, the Lumbini Hotel Association (LHA) stated. The Association believes that this offer will help prop up the tourism business weakened by the pandemic. It is expected to attract visitors to Lumbini.
LHA has made arrangements for providing a 25 percent discount on hotel stay and a 10 percent discount on food, LHA President Mithun Shrestha said. "This offer has been announced targeting tourists visiting Lumbini," he said.
It is said the number of tourists has started to increase gradually in Lumbini, the birthplace of the Buddha, with the lifting of the restrictions put in place to contain the risk of COVID-19.
