The hotel, which is expected to come into operation in February 2018, is being built by MIT Group Holdings Nepal, a member of the Ghale Group of Companies, which has diverse businesses in Australia and other countries too.
Ghale has also been appointed Nepal's special envoy for reconstruction in the aftermath of the devastating earthquakes of April 25 that floored down thousands of houses, infrastructures and heritage sites, apartfrom loss of lives.
