Silver Mountain is a place which has turned me into a better person. I’ve been an introvert all my life. After I joined SMSH, I’ve got to know my capabilities. Now I’m a better version of myself all thanks to our lovely teachers who encourage us to do better and teach us everything in a new manner. Here, they don’t believe in teaching only from textbooks. “Freedom with responsibility’s it says we are free to share our views/problems without the fear of getting judged or yelled at. Everyone here is calm and composed. Each one of them has an important role to play in our 4 years journey. Some inspire you and some encourage you to do better. Moreover, it’s a family for which I’m going to be grateful for the rest of my life.

Silver Mountain gives a great opportunity to further your future job prospects, enjoy learning and make new friends. I’m glad that I chose this college and have thoroughly enjoyed studying here. We have an amazing team of teachers who without a doubt are ready to go above and far beyond for all the students’ development. I have gone from having no confidence in myself to becoming more confident for what I have accomplished with the help of my classmates and the college in a very short period of time. To anyone who wants to pursue their career in hotel management in Kathmandu, I would definitely recommend them Silver Mountain School of Hotel Management.

Freedom with responsibility" the motto of Silver Mountain clearly reflects that it provides its students independence in perusing their career abiding them with certain responsibilities. Being a science student on high school, the course was really a new to me. With the guidance of teaching and non teaching staff members I got easily blended with the course and its environment. Silver Mountain not only provides practical and theoretical knowledge, it also focuses on enhancing the grooming standards of the students required to succeed in this industry. It has been more than a year at Silver Mountain and I have never regretted my decision on joining this college.

My time at Silver Mountain School of Hotel Management was truly one of the most valuable experiences in my life. The college not only gave me a strong foundation in both theory and practical skills but also prepared me to face real-world challenges with confidence.Silver Mountain was more than just a place to study — it was a place filled with memories, friendships, and incredible guidance from teachers who always supported and inspired me. Through internships, assignments, and events, I gained so much exposure and self-belief.That confidence has stayed with me and helped me achieve my dream of becoming a cabin crew member here at Salam Air. Thanks to Silver Mountain, I’ve been able to travel the world and live the experiences I once only dreamed of.

Being a part of Silver Mountain School of Hotel Management was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. The college didn’t just teach me about hospitality, it helped me discover what I truly enjoy doing.Silver Mountain always gave us the space to explore beyond the classroom. The lessons were practical, the teachers were supportive, and the environment encouraged us to try new things. During my internship in Dubai, I got to experience the real side of hospitality and see how big the industry actually is. That experience completely changed how I looked at my future.Through the events and assignments we did, I started realizing my interest in the marketing side of hospitality and how people connect with brands and experiences. Today, I work in marketing for a company in Dubai, while working remotely from Nepal.Silver Mountain played a huge role in helping me grow, both personally and professionally. I’m truly thankful for the people, the experiences, and the confidence it gave me to follow my own path.

Shaping one's personality is intricate deed in itself and here at Silver Mountain I have changed my life. Apart from the enigma of books, I have learned several practical skills, developed my grooming, better attitude and personality which have made me more confident.

Apart from this, Silver Mountain also assures to place students in very well known hotel properties for their internship.

I have always wanted to join Silver Mountain after completing my high school because of its highly appreciated name and reputation it has built over the years. But, what I did not know about Silver Mountain before apart from its highly appreciated name is that it runs efficient practical classes in well equipped kitchen, restaurant, wine lab and coffee lab. Silver Mountain holds its value more because of the intangible assets like the feeling of the responsibility provided with desired freedom. The level of learning and belief Silver Mountain team has put in us has pushed me beyond my limits. I feel grown, mature and more responsible being here.

It feels like yesterday when I joined Silver Mountain School of Hotel Management; one of the best hotel management schools in Nepal which provides foreign degree (Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh-UK). SMSH has given us the best education, skills, leadership training and accepting capabilities to deal with any kind of problems that we may have to face in our lives along with the responsibilities. Every single day in school, it always makes me feel like I'm in the right track to my goal of becoming an entrepreneur. Every new skill may be difficult and hard to learn but if you keep the willingness to be a beginner every single day then for sure it will be worth.

Four years have been a great experience at Silver Mountain. From a less confident and an introvert person, Silver Mountain has always helped me a lot to refine my abilities and skills to be a better person everyday and helped in overall growth as an individual as well. Learning and growing in Silver Mountain has been a blessing with all the supportive and motivating faculty members that one could ever have. I am surely going to miss everything about Silver Mountain and I hope to take all the learning that I got with me on my new journey that I am about to embark on.

With great power comes great responsibilities, in a similar sense Silver Mountain gave us the wings of freedom to fly along with responsibilities that helps in the overall growth of an individual from personal to professional by learning to get the best of yourself Besides this, Silver Mountain is a home far away from home where we all are like a family, and every director, academic lecturer, and staff always guide and support us to overcome the obstacles of our paths to achieve our goals.

It is an honor and an immense pleasure to be a part of Silver Mountain School of Hotel Management; a renowned Nepal’s top hotel school which not only boosts knowledge and learning skills of students but also helps us in paving the path towards professionalism and achieving our dreams. It has been three and half years already and we are at the end of the journey with Silver Mountain. Nevertheless, being part of Silver Mountain family has been a life changing experience for me where I grew and transformed from an introvert person to a guy who feels comfortable speaking in public and give presentations confidently because of the opportunities, practical teaching methods and of course very supportive teachers. Likewise, through Silver Mountain I got an opportunity to do my internships abroad with one of the finest resort named Andaman: a luxury collection resort in Langkawi. All special thanks to Silver Mountain School of Hotel Management, team academics, lecturers and all the staff for friendliness environment and endless support.
