Had a really pleasant stay at Family Suite Home. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the food was great, and the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout. The location is very convenient—just a 5–10 minute walk to Thamel, yet the area is quiet and peaceful. There’s also a nice park nearby, which was a great bonus. It’s also only about a 5–10 minute drive to popular spots like Swayambhunath Temple and Basantapur. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Kathmandu!

Kathmandu View Hotel is a fantastic hotel, with fantastic staff, a fantastic view, and a fantastic location. The front desk staff are very helpful (for example, they can call you a good-value taxi) and extremely kind. The breakfast was delicious, in a beautiful setting! The location is great in that it is near to many shops in Thamel, but a little bit set on the edge of Thamel, so it is quiet at night. I highly recommend the Kathmandu View Hotel!

It was a beautiful property, and we had a wonderful stay. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. They kindly allowed us to leave our luggage at the property while we were away hiking, which was very convenient. They also let us stay in the room for a couple of extra hours beyond the checkout time. We had a great experience overall.

This stupa is of great importance and meaning both for buddhists and hindus. You can walk the upper khora (buddhist always walk clockwise) on the mountain top, visit the various temples up there, watch or join the rituals, enjoy a cafe. Or you walk the lower khora at the foot of the mountain (Swayambhu circle road). It is said, that if you manage to walk up the (steep) flight of stairs at the main entrance without pausing, that this is very auspicious. BEWARE OF THE MONKEYS! They can be very aggressive! Make sure not to carry or unpack food visibly, they might attack you to grab it off you. And there are some really big monkeys with pretty impressive strength and sharp teeth. I speak from experience...

The place is absolutely fabulous by itself not least for the long stair climb demanded to reach it. this conglamaration of temples, capelas, halls and statues with clouds of incense floating by, bells ringing and chants of worshippers all around you. sadly however, most visitors nowdays are bored hindus interested mostly in taking selfies, feeding garbage to the monkeys or doing some tik tok challenge which certainly spoils the atmosphere but the place is still amazing.
