    The street noise. A city that never sleeps. Although in all fairness they did offer a back room or earplugs which for 2 nights I never took them up on.

    The owner went above and beyond and the staff are very friendly.

    Very happy to have a real warm shower after two weeks of trekking! We stayed in a room with a shared bathroom, which was perfect. Both the room and bathroom where a clean. Also the location is great since you are right away in the center of Thamel.

    This place is in a very good location. You can enjoy a good breakfast, lunch or dinner on the roof terrace. The staff was always friendly and helpful. Before going into town we always stopped at the front desk where Krishna gave us all the information we needed for the day. On the last day, he also arranged a taxi to the airport for us.

    Some rooms are louder than others at night. Can easily sleep with earplugs.

    Hot showers, rooftop patio with amazing food (try the Manchurian momos!), amazingly clean rooms and great customer service from Krishna and the team.

    Thamel Trekking Stay

    The hot water took a few minutes to run after turning on the shower.

    BagPackers Lodge is in a fantastic location in Thamel, close to the center but not as noisy as other places. The staff was attentive and very responsive, and though the hotel is close to a piano bar, the music at night was good and I never heard it past 10pm. The rooftop restaurant was tasty, fast and convenient.

    The cheapest rooms are facing to a loud and buisy street. The owner, however, offered us an upgrade for a more quiet room for small money which we refused.

    The owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. Luggage storage during a trekk is possible for free. The Hotel is in the center of Thamel.

    The rooms are basic and the bathroom can be improved, but we did not expect more because it is a cheap hotel.

    Friendly staff! We had to leave very early for our rafting trip and they prepared take-away sandwiches for us. Very nice tooftop bar too.
