It should be an experience on its own. A person walks out of his house into a hotel to have an experience, so I believe in curating individual experiences for individual people. At Hyatt Place we keep on doing a lot of events and recently we collaborated with Raithaane where we did a festival on the Lost Cuisines of Nepal. We believe in doing local collaborations rather than international collaborations. Now we are tying up with Kathmandu Museum of Arts where they will curate art and convert the lobby and public spaces into an Art Gallery.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; color: #484848; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15.5px; background-color: #ffffff;\"><strong style=\"border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial;\">Describe behind the scenes scenario of working in a hotel?<\/strong><br \/>Everybody thinks it is all glitz and glamour but it is not. There is a lot of hard work, dedication and passion which goes into it. If you cannot work long hours and don\u2019t have the passion to deliver, it would be better not to join the hospitality industry. On the other hand, it is very exciting to work in any hotel, meet new people and learn new things every day. I started off as a management trainee, worked at various hotels and even joined my family business but realized that my true calling was the hospitality industry.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; color: #484848; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15.5px; background-color: #ffffff;\"><strong style=\"border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial;\">What is Hyatt Place coming up with for Christmas and New Year?<\/strong><br \/>Hyatt Place has a tradition of doing things in a different way. We will be doing our annual Tree lighting ceremony in December followed by the Christmas ball and we are going to do brunches and a Christmas carnival for kids. We have three different events happening simultaneously for New Year: Bollywood Vibes at the banquet, for the Sky Bar we are planning a Retro theme and at the restaurant it is going to be more family and kids friendly.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2382fbd e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2382fbd\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7af546c elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7af546c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-expand=\"600\" width=\"662\" height=\"441\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 662 441'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"lazyload attachment-large size-large wp-image-6257\" alt=\"\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-561x374.jpg 561w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-1122x748.jpg 1122w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-265x177.jpg 265w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-531x354.jpg 531w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-364x243.jpg 364w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-728x485.jpg 728w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-608x405.jpg 608w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-758x505.jpg 758w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-1152x768.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-72x48.jpg 72w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-144x96.jpg 144w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy-313x209.jpg 313w, https:\/\/goingtrek.com\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_0481_sm-copy.jpg 1229w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bce7edc e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"bce7edc\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-55f63ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"55f63ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; color: #484848; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15.5px; background-color: #ffffff;\"><strong style=\"border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial;\">Difficulties you faced during the pandemic?<\/strong><br \/>The pandemic period was a blessing in disguise for us as the hotel was in construction phase. The main challenge was to get construction materials, furniture and fixtures from the border. But I won\u2019t say the pandemic was that bad; it was an opportunity as well, since there were a lot of people who had worked abroad and returned home. So for us to get the right people it was a great opportunity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; color: #484848; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15.5px; background-color: #ffffff;\"><strong style=\"border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial;\">What is your take on increasing competition in the hospitality industry in Nepal?<\/strong><br \/>I feel that competition is always good. If you don\u2019t have competition, then your services go down. I will always strive to do better in terms of food and services. If a hotel has launched a new restaurant and they are doing good food, I would go there and take my chefs along to experience their food and later ask them to do a better job than they are doing. I always say there is no harm in copying, but you should do better than just copy. Competition keeps you on your toes and then one can see the offerings from a different perspective.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mar 20, 2023 \/&nbsp;Active Varun Talwar, General Manager of Hyatt Place Kathmandu, has been in the hospitality industry for more than eighteen years.
