hotel. Not least, a 25-metre free form outdoor swimming pool, indoor and outdoor whirpools, countless sundecks for tanning when the weather’s fine, three astroturfed tennis courts, multiple options for eating and drinking, and even a 1.6km (just under a mile-long) jogging track, the latter meandering its way around the hotel’s beautiful landscaped gardens.

The onsite beauty salon, health club, spa and well-equipped state-of-the-art fitness centre offer opportunities to be preened, destress, relax and stay in shape, including a week-long schedule of yoga classes. Overlooking the hotel’s Japanese garden, the hotel’s fitness centre is uniquely open to in-house guests 24 hours a day every day.

280 rooms, including 7 suites and 35 Regency Club rooms, are some of the largest lodgings in the city, and have been designed to provide supreme comfort and space to unwind after a busy day, whether sightseeing or working. Many rooms boast panoramic Kathmandu Valley and direct Boudhanath Stupa views. High-speed Wi-Fi is free for all residents. Being a full-service resort hotel, an extensive room service menu is available for guests who wish to dine in their rooms after a tiring day out ‘n’ about. Guests staying in Regency Club rooms have exclusive access to a large private lounge, akin to a members’ club, which serves complimentary breakfast, all-day hot and cold soft beverages, and early evening hors d’oeuvres, wines and cocktails. In short, Hyatt Regency Kathmandu is the perfect base from which to explore the Kathmandu Valley, providing literally everything a discerning traveller could ever want in a city centre hotel. kathmandu.regency.hyatt.com
