Hotel Yak & Yeti Kathmandu

Rana palace hotel with gardens on Durbar Marg

Hotel Yak & Yeti is built around Lal Durbar, a former Rana palace just off Durbar Marg in central Kathmandu. The old wings still feature high ceilings, chandeliers, polished wood, and carved details; newer blocks connect to them through courtyards and lawns.

Step outside, and you are a short walk from the Narayanhiti Palace Museum, shops, and cafés. Yet, once you pass through the gate, it feels more like a garden estate than a city street.
