Wyndham arrives in Nepal

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts continues its global expansion with the opening of Ramada Encore by Wyndham Kathmandu-Thamel.

Located in the heart of Kathmandu, the capital and largest city in Nepal, the newly built hotel is part of a vibrant rejuvenation project of the city’s commercial centre situated near top attractions and cultural wonders such as the base camp for Mount Everest, the Garden of Dreams and Ason Bazaar at Kathmandu Durbar Square.

The 90-key Ramada Encore property features contemporary rooms designed with comfort and accessibility in mind. There are various on-site food and beverage outlets ranging from the Pateo restaurant and bar to the outdoor El Beso Car offering scenic views of the city, as well as Chocos N Subs, serving light meals and coffee.

Other amenities include a rooftop plunge pool, a spa and salon, a fitness centre and a versatile meeting room accommodating up to 60 conference attendees or 80 banquet guests.

With more than 50 properties currently operating in the Indian subcontinent, the opening of Ramada Encore by Wyndham Kathmandu-Thamel is another welcome step towards the company’s continued expansion plans.

“We are thrilled to be expanding Wyndham’s portfolio in this exciting new destination,” says Nikhil Sharma, Regional Director, Eurasia, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “Nepal is a beautiful country with huge potential and we are pleased to be making our footprint as part of our strategy to further expand our EMEA reach across the Indian sub-continent.”

Sharma adds: “With a growing portfolio of more than 50 operational hotels in the region and plans to develop around 30 additional properties across India, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Pakistan by 2025, the debut of the Ramada Encore by Wyndham brand brings us one step closer to our mission of making hotel travel possible for all in the Indian sub-continent and beyond.”
