10/10 Exceptional! (36 reviews)

I can’t say enough positive things about this hotel. As a solo woman traveler safety is my number one concern and I felt incredibly safe here. The property is extremely clean. The staff is wonder and your host Ganesh and Saroj are wonderful and will ensure you have a pleasant stay- along with the rest of the staff. This is definitely an oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Thamel, Kathmandu!

Rebuilding the temples destroyed by the 2015 earthquake in Nepal. It's been years since it happened but they are still rebuilding. Some temples are easier to build than others. There's something magical about walking somewhere so ancient with people living normal lives.
