Looking for hotels near Tribhuvan Airport - KTM, Kathmandu?

Its a county that is in need of alot of help from the outside world . Bot the history of the buildings and the city is something that you will have to see for yourself as it takes your breath away. Yes its not a clean place to vist but the people are so welcoming and so happy that you are for a holiday in there city after everything that they have been through. There is alot more places to travel to but none wiĺl give you the same satisfaction as Nepal does . Its been my best advantage that i could have asked for, the national parks ,the scenic lakes and mountains , the adventure of just living on the other side of the world was annothe for me .i qill be back for more in the summer.

Kathmandu is a fascinating city. There is so much to see and even an afternoon walk through the streets anywhere in the city provides an insight into the lives of Nepali people. The temples and tourist spots are also great places of interest but also ideal for sitting, relaxing and watching the world go by. The local people are so friendly and will stop for a chat. There are many good restaurants around the city. As well as local food, many international dishes are available - and this is still the case despite the Indian blockage. Kathmandu Valley offers lots of entertaining and exercise with mountain biking, trekking, bird watching, river rafting and loads more. The scenery is stunning. The domestic airport provides flights to many destinations in Nepal and is reasonably priced. I love Kathmandu and Nepal and I hope that many people will come and visit this year to help Nepali people recover from the difficult times of the last year.

The Thamel area of Kathmandu and the surrounding tourist sites (squares, temples and stupas etc) are well worth seeing. The traffic is crazy and air quality is suffering due to the dependence on wood burning, so after two or three days of sight seeing it is good to get away from the hustle and bustle and do some trekking into the hills, view the majestic mountains or head down to Chitwan for a jungle safari. Kathmandu is really an entry point to all these other adventures you can have in Nepal but it is worth a few days in itself. The place is still operating as normal despite last years earthquake, a few places are still closed, but not enough to cancel any planned visit.

[1] Nepal in general is a nice place & I will visit this country again. [2] People are nice & friendly, different cuisines were available, food hygiene is not a problem, cost of food & shopping is very reasonable, i.e., not expensive. [3] However, during my stay, Nepal was facing shortage of fuel and this has resulted in very few taxis running. Hotels were not well equipped with temporary / emergency power supplies. [4] Due to the 25th April 2015 earthquake, it was sad that a lot of buildings, both along the streets & the famous World Heritage Sites, were damaged & structural cracks were evident. If this were to happen to advanced countries, these buildings will be declared "structurally unsafe to be occupied". [5] I was disappointed with my "Mountain Flight" due to flight delay [2 other airlines took off on-time but not this airline that I have booked. The airline transferred my tour to the following day but it was again delayed & finally got the full refund.

It is difficult to describe Kathmandu as it is a very special place: chaotic, noisy, dusty, poor - but also very charming. The people are mostly very friendly, sweet and honest, and there are a lot of interesting places and sighs to discover. You need the right attitude - this is not a pampering or luxury holiday place! You find a lot of temples and other interesting buildings, bustling street life and hundreds of little shops, you'll be amazed by the poor living standards and damaged houses (by the earthquake on April 2015) where people still live in, but you'll also find many nice coffee shops and restaurants. Despite the power cuts and lack of fuel and electricity, they still manage to offer good food and cosy atmosphere. A place to see, feel and experience yourself!

I loved the Andes house where i stayed for the 2 weeks. I especially appreciated all arrangements taken care of by Deepak. I appreciated ratna didi being my shopping guide, santosh for endless excellent tea, Babu for the gentle manner and stories and the helpfulness in all matters, including charging my phone and laptop .I loved Nagarkot and will come back for sure, bhagtapur is another place i will return to, Special thanks to my taxi driver Noqeesh whos skill and ability i truely admire. Khatmandu is a place of contradiction. Once there it was more than i expected and i loved it.
