Kathmandu Pakanajol 3-star Hotels

My stay at the Lemon Tree Hotel in Kalina was a delightful experience. The hospitality was exceptional, with staff members Nagma, Shruti, Madan, and Vinayak consistently exceeding expectations. Their friendly and attentive service made me feel welcome and comfortable throughout my stay. The food at the hotel's restaurant, Citrus Cafe, was equally impressive. The menu offered a wide variety of dishes, catering to different palates and dietary preferences. Every meal I enjoyed was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Overall, my stay at the Lemon Tree Hotel in Kalina was positive. The combination of excellent food, warm hospitality, and attentive staff made it a truly enjoyable experience.

Thanks to the tour groups overbooking the west wing I was put into a twin suite room and discovered room service at the Dalai La. Having had weeks of Dahl and rice and noodles, it was great to binge on pizza and burgers. Internet was a bit intermittent on the 5th floor but the room is quieter than those facing the courtyard in the west wing.

This hotel is a very short walk to the busy tourist area of Thamel, so it is surprising how quiet the hotel room and grounds were. The reception staff members were very kind and helpful and genuinely seemed to care about any concerns I had. Wifi was decent. The breakfast was basic, but acceptable. The room was a good size and clean. I appreciate the management’s kind offer to store my luggage for the few days I was out of the city before my return.

Staff were really helpful and friendly, the hostel had a good vibe, the showers were hot, WiFi was really good, breakfast was nice and cheap, they let us keep our stuff there for free while trekking for 20 days as long as we stayed one night when we come back which we were more than happy too, we stayed 8 nights in total. Highly recommended for young travelers

The location is absolutely amazing its just 2 minutes walking distance from main road , 10 minutes walking distance from KTM Durbar Square. have a very nice rooftop garden restaurant. Rooms are very clean , 24X7 hot water, flawless Wifi, free drinking water. All the members and staffs are very cooperative.

Beautiful hotel, welcoming and polite personal, great breakfast and overall service. The view from the rooftop is stunning. I highly reccomend this place to anyone who visit Kathmandu and wants to stay at peaceful yet central location. Thanks!

Pros Great location for exploring Themal and provided you are not too high up, you shouldn't hear any road noise as it's set back. I was on the 4th floor and could hear the incessant beeping motorbikes but had moved from the first floor where i heard none (but was directly above the kitchen so could hear banging and chairs scraping from around 6am). 2nd floor is probably a good choice Staff were all excellent Room cleaned daily with 2 large bottles of water provided each day Breakfast was ok - decent variety of fruit, local and western with custom eggs. Coffee was instant though. Air con has heat facility No deposit required on check-in Toiletries provided Cons Some noise depending on your room location - dont stay in 107 or room directly above the kitchen/restaurant No safe for passport, cash etc in room Breakfast area isn't particularly clean i.e. dirty table cloths/mats Poor standard of fixtures/fittings e.g. gaps in windows and doors, curtains dont quite close right, dirty shower curtain, the rooms have seen better days but for the price its still good value. No coffee or milk in room (or 3-in one) No phone charging point near the bed Bathroom mat was old and dirty, no floor towel Tips: take extra passport photo if you intend to get a sim card at the airport, unlimited data one with nepal telecom cost me $10 - signal was mostly ok. Get your currency before you arrive or take enough to convert there, the atm machines are expensive Taxi from airport to Themal should be around 350 rupees working on 50 rupees per km plys 30 rupees start charge. You will be hounded relentlessly by people from the second you leave the plane for tour services etc. It may seem impolite but dont make eye contact, say no thank you and keep walking, otherwise you will spend your entire trip speaking to them. Right now its cold at night, pack accordingly. Be prepared to pay for everything, every temple, every place of historical interest - foreigners are charged around 1000-2000 rupees each time. E.g. all the Durbar squares, main stupas and temples. Don't assume that because Nepal is a developing country it is cheap. It isn't. In fact i found it comparable to some developed countries and not cheaper than say Thailand. A meal would cost me around 1000 rupees. In a smaller more local place you may pay 500. Don't take your new trainers, it's a very dirty, dusty city but exactly what you would expect if you've ever seen it on TV - it's all part of the experience. For exploring all of the main parts of Kathmandu, id say 5 days is a good amount of time. I recommend the everest helicopter tour but on that note i will say that tours are very expensive here, more expensive than even Hong Kong, Thailand, etc!! I ended up walking to the main temples, Chandragiri, Bakhtapur for the more local experience.
