RARE India has announced two new partners in Nepal – Nepali Ghar Hotel in Kathmandu and Sanctuary Resort in Chitwan.
RARE India joins hands with two new partners in Nepal – Nepali Ghar Hotel in Kathmandu and Sanctuary Resort in Chitwan. With the addition of these two hotels, RARE India now represents three conscious and experiential properties in Nepal committed to offering transformative travel experiences that emphasize the positive impacts of tourism. These new members of the Community reinforce RARE India’s dedication towards responsible tourism, best practices, and authentic travel experiences in the subcontinent.
Shoba Rudra, the Founder of RARE India, said, “With the addition of Sanctuary Resort and Nepali Ghar Hotel, we continue to expand our journey in creating authentic experiences in Nepal. Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge exemplifies RARE’s ethos of sustainable, community-focused luxury, and these new members are a testament to our ongoing commitment.”
Nepali Ghar Hotel, a 61-room hotel nestled in Kathmandu’s vibrant Thamel area, elegantly combines traditional Nepalese architecture with contemporary comforts. The highlight of this property is Seto Ghar, an interestingly renovated 200-year-old building that was once the royal residence of Nepalese Brigadier Colonel Pahalman Singh Basnyat.
Sujan Tandukar, Operations Manager at Nepali Ghar Hotel, expresses gratitude for the partnership with RARE India, highlighting the transformative impact on the travel community. He said, “This collaboration with RARE has enabled us to reach a broader market and has significantly contributed to promoting Nepal as a desirable travel destination.”
Sanctuary Resort, with 27 rooms is spread across 6 acres of land on the edge of Chitwan National Park in Amaltari, offers a tranquil escape along the banks of the Narayani River. Designed around the centuries-old lives of the Tharu people, who have called this region home since the 10th century.
Vijay Nanmaran S, Hospitality Advisor at Sanctuary Resort, shares, “While Sanctuary envisioned ‘sustainable luxury’ as its mission, we were obliged to live it consciously in every step we forwarded, from creating the overall guest experience to choosing our partners who could help us to achieve it. Primarily, our search was for a partner who could promote authentic Sanctuary experiences in the Indian subcontinent, and we found RARE was among the first movers who promoted destinations through experiences and asserted the need for conscious travel and sustainable luxury. We are happy and optimistic that our relationship with RARE will enhance our presence in the Indian subcontinent.”
