Kaldhara Marg, 44600 Kathmandu, Nepal –

Lock in a great price for Wander Thirst – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

Great to be off the main streets in a calmer neighborhood. Although may seem odd at first the small side street Wander Thirst exists on is perfect!

Buck, United States of America

Great staff, perfect location in the heart of Thamel and super friendly atmosphere all over the communal areas!

Yusuf, Turkey

The facilities were great, an awesome place to meet other travelers. They had events and I felt lucky to be there during their 2nd anniversary to see the traditional dance. Chill house near thamel! They have a cat that plays outside!

Iloveyourkitties, United States of America

Beautiful art, courtyards, and views of the city. Nice resteraunt. Friendly and helpful staff.

Alex, United States of America

Super friendly staff, nice music event and BBQ on Thursday night, and excellent breakfast (muesli)!

Caroline, France

I loved the restaurant and hang out area downstairs. The rooms were also very pretty with the painted walls. It was also very close to the city square.

Zoe, United States of America

The lounge area is nice, staff are friendly, rooftop was especially great.

Patrick, Ireland

If you are planning go to the mountains , I think this is one of the best place you can get a lot information and helps from. And we really enjoyed sharing stories at the lobby with others,also makes a lot friends too.

Johnny, Canada

The natural elements and wall paintings as decorations, and the energy they bring to the environment around the reception, restaurant and the common working space is something to go back for again and again.

The, Bangladesh

The staff were friendly and helpful. The location is good, just outside of Thamel.

The water wasn’t turned on when I was there and ran out of water so I had to go the airport with unrinsed Shampoo in my hair. But, that’s Nepal sometimes not their fault probs. However, it was the hottest shower I had in Nepal when it was working. Favorite hostel in Nepal by far!
