A RESTORED HERITAGE COMPLEX
Built and run by the descendants of Nepal’s longest ruling prime minister, Baber Mahal Vilas enjoys a historic and culturally significant setting in the heart of Kathmandu.
This quaint heritage hotel is set within the famous Baber Mahal Revisited – a restored heritage complex of boutiques and restaurants fashioned after an early 20th century royal palace. The hotel itself is a stunning display of Nepalese architecture, showcasing various architectural styles native to Nepal – including Rana Durbar, Newari, Mustang and Terai.
When not exploring the valley, you can take leisurely dips in the rooftop swimming pool or enjoy a pampering session at the spa, while history enthusiasts will delight in the wide selection of books available in the library. Authentic Nepalese dishes are served at mealtimes, but you can also venture out and explore the many eateries housed within the Baber Mahal Revisited. At night, you’ll rest your head in one of just 21 comfortable rooms and suites, all of which are beautifully adorned in traditional Nepalese decor.

A hugely enjoyable nine-day trip, expertly organised from start to finish. The itinerary covered everything we wanted to see and do, with excellent guides, drivers and seamless logistics throughout. The documentation was clear and helpful, and the London office was consistently responsive, knowledgeable and efficient.
Planning my first solo trip felt like a big step, but The Ultimate Travel Company made it easy from the outset. I reached out over a year in advance, and Rob Kent quickly put together a thoughtful itinerary based on exactly what I was looking for, securing great flights and always being available to talk things through. Everything ran smoothly and I felt looked after every step of the way. The accommodation in Japan, Fiji and Tahiti was excellent and the experiences unforgettable.
