10/10 Exceptional! (35 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!

Very nice boutique hotel next to the Afot in the Thamel, Kathmandu's back packer area. Hotel is charming with an excellent morning yoga session. Good meals offering BUT the breakfast needs to be improved, that is for sure.No expresso at breakfast or for an extra charge.
