A 12 storied building on the left side of Sukedhara Chokai attracts one's eye while going towards Maharajgunj from Chabhil. It is attracting people's attention because of the large building built near the busy road. What will happen in this building that attracts everyone's attention - curiosity arises.
It has nothing but a five-star hotel – the Mercure. According to Deshbandhu Basnet, chairman and investor of the hotel, the hotel's chairman and investor, Deshbandhu Basnet, chose a 'location' near the busy road with the intention that it would be easier for domestic and foreign guests to build a hotel close to the airport. "Guests arriving by ship should reach the hotel within eight/ten minutes after leaving the airport," he said.
Basnet said that four big chain hotels are being built around Sukedhara. "These hotels can also become an easy destination for tourists visiting Boudhanath and Pashupatinath," said Basnet. Mercure is a chain hotel of the Accor Group. "Acor is a European brand, 18 to 22 percent of European tourists contribute to Nepal's tourism," said Basnet. He said that it has been operated as the 111th chain hotel in Nepal.
Basnet said that more than 3 billion rupees have been invested in the construction of Mercure Hotel. Dhungedhara in front of the hotel is built. "We have taken approval from the Department of Archeology to introduce Sukedhara," he said is In the rooms of
hotel, pictures reflecting Nepali art and culture have been made. Over the bed in each room is a window. "We have worked to reflect Nepaliness as much as possible in the hotel," he said, "we have also given special priority to Nepali food." There is a swimming pool on the 12th floor, while there is an Indian restaurant on the 11th floor and an Italian restaurant on the ground floor. A modern gym hall, steam and sauna are in the hotel premises. The hotel has 1 hundred and 4 rooms.
A banquet hall with a capacity of about 400 people has been built. There are two meeting rooms. The hotel is spread over an area of 5 acres. Basnet said that since they are going to build an additional 400 capacity banquet hall, the necessary land will be added. From above the 12th floor, the view of Kathmandu can be easily taken out. The hotel currently employs 180 people. He said that 220 people will be employed until later.
Those who have gone abroad for employment are also employed in the hotel. Investment in the tourism sector is increasing, but the government has imposed 13 percent value added tax (VAT) on air tickets. Two percent luxury tax has been imposed on tourism,' he said, 'This matter should be resolved by the government in coordination with the businessmen.'
'On paper, we have worked with the approval of Panchtare,' he said, 'Now we will get its license within two months of its formal operation.' He, who is also the chairman of AB Holding, said that he is preparing to open an American brand Ramada by Wyndham hotel in Itahari.
