Born out of Mr. Dwarika Das Shrestha’s quest to preserve the Kathmandu Valley’s heritage, the Dwarika’s Hotel is a sanctuary for the architectural and cultural grandeur of the Newari civilization; a living museum capturing the beauty and spirit of an ancient city and preserving a cultural legacy that has defined the heart and soul of Kathmandu. An oasis amidst Kathmandu's vibrant bustle, the Dwarika's Hotel holds one of the world's most extensive and significant antique architectural woodwork collections, creating a magical blend of history, culture, and luxury. What began as an impulsive act of salvaging carved woods in the 1950s evolved into a passionate commitment to saving, documenting, and restoring artifacts, taking on a life of its own.With an unwavering commitment to local art and culture, Dwarika's Hotel cherishes its unique craftsmanship with utmost care. Antique wooden masterpieces, some dating back to the 13th century, imbue the hotel with an indefinable aura of heritage. Meticulously restored in the hotel's own heritage workshop by highly skilled Newar craftsmen from the Kathmandu Valley, each wooden artifact, including the windows, reflects a labor of love, preserving the essence of Nepal's rich cultural legacy for generations to come. At Dwarika's Hotel, the essence of Nepalese culture and tradition breathes life into every facet, from the intricately adorned living spaces the tantalizing flavors of our cuisine and the welcoming embrace of our hospitality. Each element of the hotel, from its façade to its smallest detail, reflects a profound reverence for Nepal's rich heritage.
