Company information

Born and brought up in Kathmandu, I've also had the opportunity to live in various parts of the world like Singapore, India, Vietnam, Philippines, Japan and Brazil. The Museum has been a long-time in the making and I am very proud to have created a different take on accommodation for travelers in Nepal.

Property information

The Museum is a first of it's kind in Nepal (and dare we say, even the world). Not only are all our six distinct rooms/suites culturally immersive but interactive as well. In collaboration with our partner company, Backstreet Academy, we've picked up six different crafts that culturally embedded in Nepali society and designed our rooms around them. Namely, woodwork, stone carving, Madal instrument, Thangka paintings, pottery and Khukuri (steel blades of the famed Gurkha warriors). A master craftsperson has taken responsibility of each rooms to display his uniquely hand-crafted work, and what makes our rooms special is you can meet and attend the workshops (all under 5 hours) of any of these craftsperson to truly culturally immerse yourself with the theme of your room. Or if you'd like you can also directly purchase the products of these craftsmen and avoid the overpriced souvenirs sold in the markets. The building itself was built over 30 years ago as a residential property, but we've renovated it to serve as a one-of-a-kind Bed & Breakfast. We also have a farmers market that's held in our gardens every Saturday from 7am to 1pm.

Neighbourhood information

We are located in the heart of Kathmandu, a stone's throw distance from the best burger joints, super markets, cafe's and bakeries. While Panipokhari is primarily a residential area, there are several embassies (US, Australia, Japan, French, Israel and Denmark) and offices of the Nepal government in the vicinity.
