Kathmandu, Aug 4 : Two Nepali enthusiasts have developed a website myhotelandhome.com to facilitate domestic and foreign tourists to book hotels in major cities across the country.
With this, tourists from anywhere
can log in to the website and book hotels of their price and standards. The
website has provided multiple options for the service-seeker such as homestay,
hostel, and apartment or house room.
Managing Director of Hotel &
Home Pvt Ltd Utsab Pathak said the service has been launched so that domestic
and foreign tourists can book hotel rooms ranging in different prices.
"This portal would help
tourists to ascertain the place to live in with confidence before travel. Also,
this would end the situation wherein tourists face hassles in finding
hotels", he explained.
The website has presented brief
information about the hotels, room-wise price, room decoration, bedding,
furniture, and other amenities and services.
Chairperson of Hotel and Home Pvt
Ltd Shailesh Karki, software engineer by profession, said the website was
developed in one-and-a-half years taking into consideration the present context
wherein people are increasingly inclined to use e-service in several
sectors.
The company has offered a 10 percent
discount on online booking during the probation time. "Tourists can choose
the hotel of their preference as they can instantly know about services and
conditions through the website", Karki added.
As of now, 300 hotels from prime
tourism destination areas including Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Nagarkot, Dhulikhel,
Chitwan, Bandipur, Ghandruk, Lumbini, Butwal, Pokhara, and Charikot have been
affiliated to the website, Chairperson Karki informed.
The owners are planning to launch
their apps after the Dashain festival.
