We really enjoyed our stay Stupa View Inn ,particularly regarding its location and staff. Stupa View Inn offers a comfortable and welcoming stay, for travelers seeking a quieter alternative to the bustling Thamel district. Its proximity to the Swayambhunath Stupa (Monkey Temple) is a major draw, allowing for easy access to this significant cultural site. We love frequently highlight the exceptional helpfulness of the staff, who contribute significantly to a pleasant experience. The inn's rooftop terrace is a standout feature, providing stunning views of the surrounding Kathmandu Valley. Additionally, the availability of reliable Wi-Fi great for WiFi junket and hot showers is consistently praised. The location, while peaceful, remains conveniently accessible to other areas of interest. emphasize the good value for money, free drinking refill center ,travel desk for ask question and free cup of hot tea .bed is comfy and beautiful Colour and beautiful local art and mountain photo in room.

Kathmandu Madhuban Guest House

Thamel, Kathmandu

A 11-minute walk from Hanuman Dhoka in the center of Kathmandu, Kathmandu Madhuban Guest House offers accommodations with access to a garden.

Kathmandu Madhuban is located in the perfect place: NOT in the centre of noisy, over touristed Thamel... and yet close enough (5 minutes walk) to go to any of Thamel's restaurants, etc should the desire strike. Also an easy walk to Asan and the older sections of downtown Kathmandu, to Durbar Square... and a short walk to Swayambhunath. And on the top floor (where my room was) there is a large terrace where one can work/sit/eat/whatever, and from the window of the room, on a clear day, one can see the snow-peaked Himalayas! What more could one want in a Kathmandu hotel?

I recently stayed at Zen Nest during my trip to Nepal, and it was an incredible experience. The location is perfect—right near Thamel and Basantapur, making it easy to explore the city's vibrant nightlife. The staff were exceptionally friendly, and the room was clean and incredibly comfortable. I had an amazing time and will definitely be returning to Zen Nest on my next visit!

    The homestay is located in a very nice residential area, fully served. The room was big and the view over the mountains was stunning! The place also has a lovely rooftop where we had a beer with view 🙂 The very plus of the stay is absolutely the kindness of the host family ♥️, smiling, kind and always helpful with local advices about where to go and where to eat. They also managed to give us special trekking advices. We are definitely going to come back, as soon as we will be in Kathmandu again to catch up our flight.
