This hotel started to feel like home. I really enjoyed both my stays there. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, warm, and quite large. They were well equipped with satellite TV (with channels in English), a safe, tea and coffee facilities, and a fridge. Wifi is available, but chargeable to your room. I did find the...

We were finishing up a long holiday with a few days in Kathmandu and wanted to have a mini splurge. Unfortunately whilst Kathmandu is chockful of backpacker digs, there really are not many good midrange options. After blanching at paying a lot of money for what looked like a very average Radisson we stumbled across the Shanker and thought we...

A converted royal Nepalese palace, the hotel has a distinctive style. We stayed on two separate occasions for 5 days each time and loved the hotel. Both rooms we had were very clean, comfortable and quiet. They were well appointed with TV, tea and coffee making, fridge, safe etc. The bathroom in our first room had quite a damp smell...

Hotel Shanker is a very nice hotel we stayed! Starting from check-in, we recognized that we made a good choice. The people working in the hotel are all very polite. They stopped by to greet you no matter what they were doing at the time and eager to offer the help. The people working in the restaurant is very efficient...

A great many tourists from the Chinese market are loving the Shanker. We also have a brand new Chef and kitchen team, and we are looking at the results through your reviews.
Maintaining a Royal Palace is challenging, and we are happy that we have lived up to your expectations.
Please visit us again.
With Warm Regards,...

The staff was excellent, the hotel very clean and the room amenities good. The hallways and the way to the rooms was a little funky.
It's located centrally near a nice shopping area and some restaurants. I would definitely stay there again.

Dear Guest
We apologize for the extreme inconvenience caused to you during our stay.
We are located right at the heart of the city with 100% generator back up. It so happened that there was complete load shedding in the city then which is why you felt that there was "no life" around the hotel.
Further, checking your reservation status,...

Me and my family have been to Nepal to visit Pasupati Nath temple and we chose Shanker Hotel for our stay. We were on a package for Indian nationals for 3 nights and 4 days. After going through various hotels on Trip advisor, we finally took chance to stay in Shanker Hotel. Everything was ok while our stay but we...

Dear Valued Guest
We are glad that you liked our well appointed accommodations.
The travel desk is outsourced to Natraj Travels (a leading travel agency of Kathmandu). They handle all travel arrangements for the guests. I think INR 5200 was the airline rate, and since you booked through the travel desk, they added their mark up for their service charges....

This is a heritage hotel, full of charm, good central location. The gardens are an oasis of calm, the swimming pool is very clean and inviting. The staff are very helpful. Generator always kicked in immediately when frequent power outages occured. Plenty of hot water. Food o.k. but definately need a more varied dinner menu.

Stayed twice at the hotel, first time in older character rooms (although one of the rooms noisy from outside music), second time in newer renovated rooms, tidy, clean and comfortable. Staff friendly but gave me impression of waiting around for tips. Disappointed with buffet breakfast choice esp cereals. Recommended if looking for a unique hotel rather than the chains/groups.
