Hyatt Regency Kathmandu announced today that it has been awarded with the “Leading Luxury Hotel / Resort” by South Asian Travel Award. The award was received on December 20, 2020 with the ceremony being conducted virtually on December 15, 2020.

This is the second consecutive win for the hotel to receive this award. Hyatt Regency Kathmandu is a distinct showcase of fine architecture and craftsmanship. The subtle fusion of creativity with novelty ensures modern-day comfort and convenience, with a flavor of the rich cultural heritage that Kathmandu is famous for. The entrance to the hotel is marked by life-sized mythological animals, welcome towers and beautifully carved niches.

The entire hotel is a blend of traditional Newari architecture with contemporary conveniences. Lifesize mythological animals believed to keep away evil spirits, welcome towers and beautifully carved niches mark the entrance, guiding you into the hotel. The Water Court comprises lotus ponds, as does the entire entrance to the lobby area, as ‘walking over water’ is considered auspicious and is a mark of respect to all our guests.
