Great staff, helpful and friendly; a great courtyard garden to relax in after the sensory overload of Kathmandu. It's very noisy but that's the location!

6 years running...only place I stay in KTM!
I always stay at Hotel Ganesh Himal. Their helpful staff, kind spirit, safe & clean rooms, and prime location is why I keep coming back.

8/10 Very good

Property was good but the booking process was poor. The hotel hadn't heard of wotif and despite me giving my name three times they couldn't find my booking and then suddenly found it. I booked a double room but only received a single. The hotel itself was clean and quiet with excellent service, the best mattress I've had in Nepal and welcome drink. I'd stay again but not with wotif.

Excellent location in the city with only a few minutes walk to Thamel or Durbar Square, yet away from the main traffic. The garden and balcony were nice to relax in. Staff was really friendly and helpful with organizing.

Very friendly staff! I love the yard! It feels Iike an oasis! The beds are not the most comfy but they are clean! The included breakfast is ok! Nothing special! I think the attention and the place itself is the reason why I like to return here! It is also close to the restaurants and cafes in Thamel!

Great staff + courtyard + location
I stayed at Hotel Ganesh Himal for a total of 2 weeks. The hotel really shines with it's friendly and welcoming staff as well as with it's comfy courtyard. Special thanks to Siri and the other waiters for the great service. The same goes for Kancha, who I believe is the janitor. I found the food offered great and reasonably priced. I also liked the location which is not in the midst of the annoying chaos of Thamel, but still not more than a few minutes away. The rooms are somewhat dated but that didn't bother me. I stayed in different rooms of the same category and found they were quite different. In some the bathroom fixtures are not ok, some missing a shower screen, kettle filters are dirty and other small things that do however make a difference. In my view it wouldn't take much effort to improve these things. Cleanliness could also be improved.

Hotel tranquilo y bien comunicado
Hotel recomendable con buena relación calidad-precio. El hotel estaba muy limpio y el personal del hotel era muy amable. Aunque la calle está mal iluminada, está muy bien ubicada y más tranquila que en Thamel. Está cerca de Thamel, a 15 min de Durar Sqr. e incluso se puede ir andando al templo de Swayambhunath.

This is an oasis in Kathmandu and I always enjoyed coming back after being out in Thamel for a quiet tea in the garden. I recommend this hotel!

The Hotel Ganesh is wonderful place to stay in Kathmandu. The staff of both the reception and the restaurant were so very gracious and friendly. Clean & quiet rooms, with reliable hot water at any time of day or evening. The beautiful restaurant courtyard was a great place to start and end the day! I would book this hotel again in a heartbeat - an incredible value. About a 10 minute walk from all the restaurants and shops in the Thamel District.

Luxury on the 6th Floor at $45Cdn
We loved this centrally located hotel - friendly staff, superb rooms, great view from our 6th Floor balcony, good value, and we enjoyed the elevator-free, pre-trekking 74 preparatory steps up to our room. For this kind of money you want to move in for a month. The serving staff at the desk, security, courtyard restaurant staff and cleaning personal were all about friendly, helpful customer service.
