    The best thing about the hotel is location and value for money

    Weak part is cleanliness as I saw lots of coacroches in the room and water in the bathroom was yellowish

    This used to be our favorite hotel in Kathmandu - we have stayed there at least 3 times before this one (it did change buildings a few years ago - we have been at both). The location is great, right at the Thamel.,

    Unfortunately, the maintenance there is bad. Rooms are very tired, not clean, half the lightbulbs are burnt. The elevator was broken during our stay, as well. Climbing to the 5th floor in the Kathmandu humidity is not recommended!

    2RezaPosted on: 10-1-2023

    Only the location and the staff

    - The property is definitely not within the standards of a four star establishment - The is a serious issue with unstable electricity which will definitely mess up your devices. The TV on the wall was not working because of the shirt circuit in the room. Once there was an electricity cut because of this.- The place has not been thoroughly cleaned for a very long time. There was dirt on the floor and the ventilation system in the bathroom was not working, so every time you take a shower, the room just steams up.Overall, the place shows a very serious lack of proper management

    1KajimanPosted on: 9-8-2023

    Not much.

    Room wasn't clean. Old stuffs everywhere including quilt, pillows and decoration. If it is a family room why only one cup? Bit strange. I have to ask reception for towels, fix wifi by myself and tv was not working. Called reception to fix tv but no one turned up.

    It's a very nice hotel , all the staff are amazing.This is my second time booking this hotel.

    We faced one issue which is the elevator wasn't working.

    7LayalPosted on: 8-14-2023

    The location of the hotel is accessible to many attractions.. staff are amazing and helpful

    The rooms need renovation, internet is weak

    4JuliaPosted on: 7-23-2023

    It was so used that even after cleaning seems like someone used it right before you. Especially bathroom. No toys, so do

    Disappointing

    I express my disappointment with the experience I had during my recent stay at your hotel. As a paying guest , I expected to receive a certain level of services and unfortunately, my expectations were not met. I would like to bring to your attention the issue I faced during my stay at your hotel. The elevator is not working and is very hard to go by stairs.

    8ParveenPosted on: 7-6-2023

    It was strategically located in a tourist hotspot called Thamel. Had loads of stores and eatery places downstairs. You can literally walk your way around. Plus the hotel is about 20-25minutes away from the airport.You will see all sorts of local products just below the hotel, souvenir stores, local and international cuisines, stores with local fashion products, groceries and more!

    I was sad the spa wasnt operational... but ofcourse this is a covid safety precaution.

    10BishalPosted on: 7-2-2023

    The room was clean and comfortable, and the staffs were very helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to others.
