This was the best hostel I've stayed in Nepal. The bunk beds offer great privacy with their partitions, and getting to the upper bunk is easy with steps instead of a ladder, making it a comfortable choice. Each bed also has a locker, so you don't have to worry about your valuables. The room is air-conditioned, and housekeeping cleans very frequently. Rahul at the front desk is super friendly; he'd always greet me and ask how I was doing every time we met.

Stayed here before my flight out of KTM. Free airport pickup and drop-off is a nice perk.
The downside: I requested late checkout due to an evening flight, but it was refused and I had to pay half-day rate. That was frustrating.
Positives: Housekeeping staff were helpful (quick with fresh towels and trash), restaurant food was tasty, and the front desk gave a warm farewell. Good for a transit stay if you don't need flexible checkout.

This hotel offers excellent service from the moment you walk in; both the front desk staff and the manager were incredibly polite. The hotel is very clean and well-equipped, even having an elevator. The room was spotless and tidy, and they even provided hand soap. The hotel's location is right in the city center, close to restaurants and Kathmandu Durbar Square. Plus, there's a rooftop where you can enjoy city views of Kathmandu. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Kathmandu.

The service was excellent; even though the hotel caters to Western tourists, Chinese guests would feel very comfortable. The courtyard was spacious with beautiful flowers. Breakfast was served from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, with four or five set menus.
There was a particularly large terrace where you could sit, drink beer, overlook the entire city, and listen to Xu Wei's songs.
The service was excellent; all the staff were very friendly and proactive in resolving issues.
The only downside was not to book the 30-square-meter room, as it was very noisy. All other rooms were very nice.
Very good, a quiet oasis in a bustling area. It's located in a vibrant neighborhood, within walking distance to Durbar Square, and close to Chinatown, so food options are great. I'll choose this place again next time. Breakfast is a fixed set menu.

Very nice , clean , comfortable hotel ! The location is perfect as it is a little bit outside of Thamel so it’s quiet , but it takes 2 minutes to get to the crowded streets ! There is a nice restaurant in the hotel with very good food! The stuff is friendly and helpful ! Nita from the reception is very nice , really appreciate her help with everything ! Highly recommend this place for short stay and long stay !
The hotel facilities are very new; the hygiene is very good; the bedding is dry and clean; the shower water is large and comfortable; the service of all employees is also very good, and every employee is always smiling and actively providing services, which gives people a very good feeling. The only small flaw is that it is between Patan attractions and the city. It takes about ten minutes to walk to both sides, which is within an acceptable range. There are no other problems. It is a very cost-effective hotel.

Very Good
GGuest UserThe room made a decent first impression and did the bare minimum. But, it quickly became clear that it’s best suited for a very short stay. The bed was comfortable enough. Overall, the room is fine if you’re just passing through, but anything longer starts to feel like stretching it.
Staff presence around the hotel was limited. They clearly run on a lean operation, which can go either way. The guard in front of the elevator stood out in the best possible way and added a genuinely warm, human touch, which helped balance things out.
At check-in, I was given two complimentary cocktail coupons for the upstairs bar, which immediately lifted my spirits. This was a place I had enjoyed many times before and often recommended to friends and family. I had good memories of the atmosphere, the food, and the general vibe, so I went in with high hopes. In the past I had written raving 5-star reviews of their restaurant food and amazing service!
Unfortunately, the experience that followed didn’t live up to those expectations. What should have been a simple, enjoyable night out unraveled into confusion and unwelcoming interactions. Small moments piled up, the mood shifted, and it became clear that the experience had gone off the rails. Rather than force it, my group and I decided to take our time and money elsewhere. Sometimes you read the room and move on.
I returned to the hotel later that night and stayed over. Took a hot shower in the morning, loved the smell of their body wash, btw!
Another brief interaction during checkout reinforced the same theme: rigid, abrupt, and lacking the kind of hospitality that makes guests feel welcome.
All in all, it’s disappointing to see a place I once enjoyed and freely recommended lose its consistency and warmth. I’m no longer comfortable recommending it, and I’m not sure I would choose to return.
As for the unused cocktail coupon, I still have it. Any takers?
GGuest UserI stayed for 2 nights, it didn't feel safe for me as a solo woman traveller. One the first night around 11pm there were 3-4 men shouting and laughing and knocked my door. I was scared and called the reception. The phone wire was not connected to the phone, i have to hold it tight to the phone while i was speaking. It was a terrifying experience. When in emergency even the phone wasn't working! the receptionist took 30 min to for the men to calm down. The next day morning the receptionist told me they men moved out. But i saw them in the evening in the hotel. Didn't feel safe. Again, the men, shouting and aloud. Still i couldn't sleep there, awake whole two nights i stayed there, didn't feel safe. The place was clean. Location was good.
GGuest UserGreat value for money! They even offer free airport pickup late at night, which was a huge plus ✌️ The staff were also very friendly and helpful.
MMH RONYThey are very welcoming, and the reception staff was awesome. They accept international visa card. Every floor have a nice balcony for gossiping, eating coffee and smoking. With this budget, best hotel.
My room was 404.
Problems:
1. The telephone was not dead.
2. Curtains are very thin so in the morning you can't sleep in the sunlight.
3. The doors and windows are very old, that's why if someone is talking outside of the room you will hear everything and maybe they also hear you.
4. They just provide tissue and soap, they didn’t provide toothbrush, toothpaste, or shampoo. So if you booked this hotel keep this with you.
5. The hotel doesn't have an elevator, so if you don't like the stairs, is it not for you and you can talk to the hotel before booking for the 2nd floors room.
PPascalHad a terrible experience at this hotel - booked it as a first stop in Kathmandu on arrival in Nepal, place to put my luggage while trekking and a last night before flying out of the country.
There is no provision for bag check - no tag given or the like. Asked if could leave / check my bag was told yes and to leave infront of front desk. Two weeks later when I returned to the hotel bag was still in the lobby infront of front desk. Things were missing of course - none of great enough value to argue, but the fact they couldn’t even be bothered to move the bag a few feet to a closet / holding space or the like is indicative of the way this place rolls.
Tried to book a shuttle for early morning to airport through hotel, listed as included service. Despite confirming and reconfirming, they arranged nothing. Instead at 5:15 AM it became a game of let’s make a deal and see how much we can charge while providing no evidence there was even a driver. In the end I gave up and carted my luggage to the street to get a taxi.
Nepal is a wonderful country - this hotel was a consistent bad experience. Rooms themselves are meh - didn’t try the free breakfast, on site restaurant was pretty good, atmosphere/ food. This isn’t a cheap hotel by local standards - for the price point there are much / many options in the area.
IIvann CLoved it. Quiet spot just off the busy streets of Thamel. Reception and restaurant staff were really friendly and helpful. Breakfast range was decent and had something new to offer every day (we had pancakes, potatoes, veg, fried rice, sausages, yogurt, fruit. The masala tea and made-to-order omelettes were yummy. Try the veg omelette. Front desk girls were fab cos they helped me call and track down an old friend; and the night shift chap helped us exchange a few dollars into local currency after we checked in late at night but wanted to get snacks from local shops. Rooms were clean and the shower was nice amd hot. Beyond our expectations for the budget.
CChristinalvxingdarenBecause I didn't catch the plane, I found a small hotel temporarily in the early morning.
facility:
Although the hotel is small, the hardware facilities are relatively good in Nepal, which is good.
There is air conditioning, hot water and card swipe door locks, which are advanced.
But there is no hair dryer either…
health:
I still saw the hair...
environment:
Room comfortable
Serve:
The breakfast provided is relatively simple (Picture 6 is the breakfast menu)
The service attitude of the staff at night is good, but the service attitude during the day is average.
In the evening, my friend in Kathmandu sent me to the hotel to pick up my luggage and take me to the airport. The hotel staff was even more hospitable.
TTaracandra YoginBaudha Apart Hotel
The Air is much cleaner at these heights. A lovely view to be seen from the roof top upon the city down below. There is a room up there, for yoga, for exercise, or meditation. An elevator takes you there, but you can climb the stairs, if you wish, especially to prepare for a mountain trek – there is an ample storage room in that regard. Boudha Apart is owned by a Sherpa family, originally from Lukla, so there are many good contacts with the high mountain community.
The hotel is fairly new, and that means nothing is broken. That is to say also, that it is well maintained, that the guests are not a rowdy sort, and they are mindful of each other's tranquility. The rooms are well thought out, and many have a sun facing balcony. Both sink and shower have abundant hot water, adjustable as you like. On the ground floor is a large restaurant, with a diverse menu of local cuisine, and western comfort foods. The basement is a parking garage for cars and bikes. The staff is of good cheer, and supportive of your adventures and plans. They, most conveniently, pick up and deliver to the airport. There is also a car and driver for various tours, as you will.
And finally to say, the price to value is most fair, as one compares to other hotels in the region.
TTangchaoheiyanquanLocated in a quiet alley, the place was reasonably clean, and there was a supermarket right outside, making shopping very convenient. In the mornings, the staff greeted me warmly with ”Good morning!” Having a Nepalese meal followed by the hotel breakfast was wonderful!
