A Home away A Home with 100% home environment but pristine and cozy than you ever thought of. Gorkha traditional meals on request, free Wi-Fi. A walkable distance from main shopping mall. Guests' innermost satisfaction is our motto & we strive to live to it what may come. "Come as a Guest, go as a Friend". Here, we prioritize comfort and homey atmosphere over the formal service of a hotel. At, Mount Olive, we believe in giving each of our visitors unique attention and the finest care. We are situated away from the hustle and bustle of town and offer a serene and quiet environment.
I run the entire Hotel as the sole proprietor. Mount Olive is the result of my passion and aspirations. Mount Olive Home Stay is not more of a entrepreneur rather a service to Guest and humanity. I'm also a graduate in Hotel Management and Tourism, and I've worked as a Chef at various affluent 5-star establishments, as well as in other departments. With my experience and my passion, I strive to deliver the finest service possible to all of my guests.
The first human to step into the highest mountain in the World, "Mount Everest" along with Sir Edmund, Mr. Tenzing Sherpa's resident is just a 2 minute walk from the Mount Olive Home Stay. We will arrange visit to his residence with prior appointment. (Entry fee is admissible).
