Hilton announces the opening of Hilton Kathmandu, marking the hospitality company’s foray into Nepal. Located in the heart of the Kathmandu Valley, the hotel is located in Naxal, just four kilometres from Tribhuvan International Airport and minutes away from tourist attractions such as Thamel and Durbar Marg making it an ideal base for both business and leisure travellers.
Owned and developed by the Shanker Group, this property represents a significant milestone in Hilton’s growth and expansion in the Indian subcontinent. Nepal enjoys a high travel demand and is extremely popular among consumers looking for adventure, religious and cultural getaways.
As the tallest hotel in Kathmandu and the only one with a glass facade, it offers breathtaking views of the Langtang Valley’s mountain ranges. The rooms and the presidential suites are inspired by the city’s prayer flags symbolizing peace and compassion. The facade showcases vertical glass fins that change colour with the light, while intricate patterns of traditional Nepali Dhaka fabric adorn staff uniforms, the lobby and other guest areas. The striking design maximizes mountain views with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that bathe the hotel in natural light. The architectural features are incorporated throughout the building like the cantilevered entrance, temperature-controlled rooftop pool, all-day dining outlet; and panoramic vistas showcase Nepal’s natural landscapes and cityscape.
