Hotel Yak and Yeti, is a
premier five-star deluxe oasis in the heart of Kathmandu, Nepal.
Modern day sophistication greets cultural heritage in the ample
grounds of the 100-year-old palace and newly designed structure of
the hotel. Find refuge among antique fountains, gilded temples and
emerald gardens as you remain just moments away from all the shops
and adventure of the Kathmandu city, located at Durbar Marg.
The hotel has total of 270 rooms divided into standard & deluxe
categories. A 120-room hotel with 5 star amenities started its
operation in 01st September, 1977. After a successful run of 12
years, the need was felt to enhance the hotels size and facilities.
Now an extension of 150 deluxe rooms and suites have been built
(designed to harmonize with the special features of the Lal Durbar)
to supplement the existing accommodation, bringing the total number
of rooms available in the hotel to 270 rooms.
Along with the construction of the new (Durbar) wing, a brand new
porte-cochere, lobby, a new lobby bar, shopping arcade, an atrium, a
second swimming pool and two tennis courts have also been
constructed, whilst the Cafι Restaurant has been extended and
upgraded, along with the refurbishment of the existing guest room
wing. Following this renovation program is the inclusion of a brand
new Club Nirvana Fitness Center complete with state-of-the-art
gymnasium and spa. Hotel Yak & Yeti has a comprehensive Business
Centre and is the first hotel in Kathmandu offering a much sought
after exclusive Executive floor and Club Shangri-La. Facilities on
this floor include 24-hour butler service, a private lounge for
breakfast and cocktails, a boardroom, and in-room outlets for fax
machines and computers, which can be rented.
With the historic character of the hotel and the new and upgraded
facilities, the Yak & Yeti will continue to be the citys leading
luxury business and leisure hotel. Although it is an ultra modern
hotel, the traditional Nepali architectural features have been
preserved.
Some of the display carved windows are more than 200 years old. It
captures the old charm and style of Kathmandu, while providing the
international quality standards of accommodation and dining
facilities.
The embodiment of history, legend and tradition, the Hotel Yak and
Yeti is a perfect blend of contemporary international standards and
time-honored tradition. Explore Nepal's rich cultural heritage while
finding solace in the luxurious comfort of this former Rana Palace.
Rest in the neo-classical Lal Durbar or Red Palace, built more than
a century ago by the then Prime Minister Bir Shumshere Jung Bahadur
Rana. A centerpiece of the Yak and Yeti's impressive hotel, the
meticulously restored, Lal Durbar now houses two historic
restaurants, banquet rooms, a grand ballroom and casino. Comfortably
manicured rooms, striking Himalayan views, and its premier location
make the Yak and Yeti an obvious destination for business and for
travel. |
