Special mention to Mamata!
I recently stayed, and prior to arriving exchanged over 40 emails with Mamata regarding my son's birthday.
Mamata always responded straight away and was so helpful. The decorations were very tasteful and beautiful.
Upon arrival a few small issues were immediately rectified , (again , by Mamata) ..a real credit to the hotel.
All the staff were very friendly and the massages at the Spa were amazing.
I loved Kathmandu and shed a tear when leaving.
Kathmandu and the people are incredibly special.
It’s super clean, staff is very friendly and helpful and the overall ambience is like a palace.
The restaurant food menu should have more Nepali options including Buff and pork dishes since the hotel is perfect to experience Nepali architecture but food is too western
Staff and breakfast are exceptional. Location is FANTASTIC. I could walk to Thamel for shopping and food, Palace museum is walking distance (highly recommend visiting) as well as Garden of Dreams. The room was ok, no view.
Everything was great, the staff is extremely nice and helpful, the room was very nice and the hotel is very well maintained, definitely recommend to anyone staying in Kathmandu.
Everything at Hotel Shanker is truly great. I really feel at home in this beautiful hotel. The staff are magnificent and everyone is so friendly and helpful. The architecture of this old historical palace is stunning. The entrance and lobby is so beautiful and great for photos. The garden in front is wonderful and the pool is terrific. I highly recommend staying at Hotel Shanker. It’s the only place I stay when visiting Kathmandu. I’m already looking forward to a return visit!! Thank you Hotel Shanker for treating me so well and giving me such great memories and photos!!

Beautiful hotel in a great location.
I had 3 stays here during my time in Nepal and enjoyed them all. My room on the final night was one of the renovated ones and was lovely. Amazing bed.
Staff are great and the breakfast really good.
