The Summit is a very special Nepali style hotel
with western comfort.
It was founded some 25 years ago by a group
of Dutchmen who had - and still have - a great
affinity for the country, its mountains, people,
history and culture.
Terraces set in spacious flower gardens give
views north across the Kathmandu valley to the
Shivapuri ridgeline and the snow clad Himalayan
range beyond.
Open balconies with local hand made tile floors
and carved wooden pillars connect to the rooms.
A wide range of accommodation is offered from
the self contained apartments in Summit Tower
to the air conditioned Himalaya View Wing Rooms,
the original Garden Wing Rooms, to the good
value budget accommodation available in Holland
House. The Summit has a famous bar and restaurant,
beautiful gardens and terraces, an outdoor pool,
beauty salon, fitness centre and sauna, business
centre, conference and meeting facilities, room
service and international direct dial telephone
from all rooms.
Location
The Summit Hotel, placed equidistant between
the great Durbar Squares of Kathmandu and Lalitpur,
is the ideal place for those spending time in
and around the Kathmandu valley.
With Kathmandu now being a crowded city, the
old city of Patan (Lalitpur) has not changed
much over the centuries and can easily be explored
on foot.
The Patan Museum is located in a most beautiful
renovated Malla Palace Garden and a visit there,
and a stop off at the Museum Restaurant is a
must.
Also located near the Summit are some of the
best woodwork and handicraft shops in the valley.
The Tibetan Refugee Camp has a wide selection
of hand woven natural and vegetable dye carpets.
Generally shopping in Nepal is under-rated.
There is much of good quality available, at
amazingly low prices.
