Lock in a great price for Hotel Moonlight – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

We absolutely loved the staff! The young men working in the dining area were very friendly and took notice to our food allergies. We stayed at another hotel a week later but still went back to Hotel Moonlight for our dinners. The food was 5star! The spa they have in the hotel is one of the best massages I have ever had!

The room is spacious and very clean. The pressure in the shower was great. The air conditioner work excellent and almost silent. The view was nice. The breakfast in the morning was fresh omelets, pastry and bread, pancakes and French toast and a variety of Nepalese food. The front desk staff were very accommodating and we could leave a bag behind while on a trek. The price was so good value. Will be returning after our trek.

I loved this hotel. It has great spots to rest like inner garden, tables on roof. Breakfast was good, and you could enjoying it in the garden which is suuppper nice and they have nice playlist that make you to relax for 100%. Stuff is kind and smiling. Location is great, 3 min and you are in the center of Thamel. My room was cozy and big, good pillows and bed. I definitely will stay here in my next visit.

Excellent staff. Very good attitude. The hotel was clean and in good location. The in house restaurant serves good quality food at decent prices. After the first day we moved into a room with jacuzzi and kids just loved it. Breakfast had good variety. If I ever visited Nepal again would definitely stay there.

This hotel was extremely accommodating with my situation and went above and beyond. The security to the hotel was nice and the room was very spacious. Plus, I was happy to have a shower that had a separate space in the bathroom instead of getting all the bathroom floor wet, as is the case with most SE Asia hotel rooms. The aircon worked well and the bed was very comfortable. The food at the breakfast buffet was great!

I did get some bedbug bites on my lower leg.
I liked the view & the size of the room & found it adequate for my stay. The garden area was lush & comfortable & the food was very good along with the friendly service. The location was close to shopping & other food options. The staff were so helpful & having the money exchange at the reception was useful. Also having the information about other tour options & staff to help organise any extra tours was excellent. My friends also made good use of the spa area for massage etc.

“Very good overall, but on our last day...”

There seems to be a problem with the shower as the water temperature was unstable - hot to cold, cold to hot. Also, while on our first visit everything was perfect with our room, on our second visit we had another room. I woke up the next morning and I had bite marks on my legs. I am not sure what it was, I paid attention to it later as I was rushing to the airport, but I fear it might be bedbugs. I have even emailed the hotel about this issue, I hope they have taken adequate measures!
We stayed twice at the hotel. Both times the rooms were clean, the beds were comfortable and I like how the a/c was not directed at the beds, so it was more comfortable without it blowing at you. The bathrooms are spacious and once we had a bathtub, perfect to relax in after a long day. The staff in the restaurant downstairs were really pleasant and helpful. The food the restaurant offers is good, and the garden is a perfect place to 'recharge your batteries' and enjoy a quiet evening with friends and a drink, away from the hectic bustle of the street. The reception is ready to book anything your need, even at last minute. They even packed us a breakfast to take away with us as we had an early flight back home the second time we stayed there.
