Hotel Shanker is a magnificent heritage hotel in Kathmandu that first opened its doors in 1964. It's in Lazimpat, very near to the ancient Narayanhity Palace Museum. The building's architectural style is neoclassical and was built for General Jit Shumsher Rana.
Hotel Shanker, Kathmandu is a heritage hotel housed in a 19th-century palace within walking distance to popular places Thamel and Durbar Marg, Kathmandu's tourist hubs. From 1894 to 1964, it served as the royal home of Nepal's monarchs before being converted into a luxury hotel. The facade was kept intact, but the interior of the hotel was redesigned to give travelers the kind of comfort they'd expect of a world-class hotel. The hotel is characterized by exquisite and authentic objects d'art. For example, the carved windows displayed in the lobby bar are over 200 years old.
This hotel is currently a reputed address in Kathmandu, Nepal. Tourists have been able to make reservations online since 2004. The hotel won the Trip Advisor Travelers' choice awards for the years 2013 and 2014 in the top hotels' category.

We are so glad that we chose Adventure Life. The service is top-notch. Everything is well taken care of and we just have to print the documents and go. Franny even gave us timely updates on possible airport strike.
Jessica was wonderful! She made every effort to ensure our trip was just what we wanted.

My travel planner, Jeff, who is on top of his field (based on travel industry awards), is a highly professional, very effective and, at the same time, personally nice individual. What was also critical to me is that he has a first hand experience traveling in the region that I am going to.
On top of that, the customer relations director, Sarah, has personally followed up to make sure I'm happy.
