Gaushala Vacations from $2,660

A great location and easy to find. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. Loved the court yard restaurant and bar, a little place of peace in a busy city. Deluxe king room was perfect to come back to after a day out, and the bed so comfortable. Thank you for making my stay memorable.

This place is super special. A little oasis with great walkability to the sites in Thamel. The grounds and building are absolutely stunning. We loved the free rooftop yoga every morning and the free heritage walk around Thamel. Every detail of the building is absolutely beautiful--truly like staying in a sacred temple. If you are looking for a unique and authentic Nepali experience in the heart of Thamel, this is the place.

Our 1 week stay at Kathmandu Suite Home was wonderful. Everyone was pleasant and went out of their way to take care of us. The daily breakfast had a variety of selections to please any appetite with dishes that were more local to dishes that would be familiar to folks from North America. They have a very nice espresso machine and the staff prepared lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso based drinks for breakfast. We had a room with a balcony, with a view of the "Monkey Temple" in the distance. We were always supplied with plenty of bottled water. and the daily room service kept the room spotless. The tour desk was outstanding and provided ample ideas for cultural tours of many Temples and Stupas. Arjune, our driver, was amazing in navigating the Kathmandu traffic. We also had a tour guide for 2 days. Both Arjune and our tour guide explained the Temples and culture in great detail. We made stops at local restaurants for traditional Nepalese meals and also for some Khuwa high in the hills above Kathmandu. The hotel is a very short walk from the Thamel district, but negotiating the intense Kathmandu traffic while walking is something that requires your full attention as we found few sidewalks and had to walk in the street, Not something you'd be doing in a larger American city, but quite normal in Kathmandu. We would definitely stay there again!

14 Luxe by Mums Home is a brand-new luxury hotel in a quiet area of Thamel. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, offering beautiful mountain and city views. Staff are professional and attentive, and the hotel is exceptionally clean. Guests can enjoy stunning 360° views from the rooftop terrace. The bar is excellent, and the food is delicious.
