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.

Working with Adventure Life for our trip to the Galápagos was great! Our trip planner assistant made sure we were aware of all fees that would need to be paid, helped arrange flights and airport transfers, and gave us answers to specific questions we had about the cruise. It was so easy and stress-free to work with Adventure Life!
