There is a door to the entrance of the corridor, so it is very quiet and comfortable. The location is great, with food, shopping, and currency exchange all within a 10-minute walk. I recommend this hotel.
Satoshi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The best thing about this hotel is the people who work here. Some of the most genuine people I’ve met. They really are here to support you and make sure you have a good time. Also great location. Clean rooms. Warm water for showering with good pressure. Beautiful rooftop terrace.

10/10 Exceptional

Good place to stay in Kathmandu
Very close to the shopping district of Kathmandu, Good Breakfast.
Narasimha Baliga, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One of the best reasonable clean hotels.
This is a very cost-effective, family-run hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are kept in immaculate clean condition. Shower also had adequate hot water. Bathrooms and toilets are separated by glass doors. Breakfast is reasonable and adequate. I liked the banana pancakes with plenty of honey. Hundreds of restaurants and stores are conveniently located near the hotel. Durbar Square, the center of tourism, is only a 10-minute walk away while you enjoy a stroll downtown. I will definitely choose the hotel the next time I come to Kathmandu.

10/10 Exceptional

This place is a hidden gem that I have stayed in on two separate trips to Nepal. There are many places in this price range, but I have found few Who is facilities are so well-maintained. The staff is one of the main reasons I will return. A great location to stay if you’re hoping to be right in the middle of it all in Themal
