The Hotel is situated right at the heart of Thamel. Staffs are super nice and helpful. Last but not the least, food at their restaurant is very good. Overall had a great experience here.

Nothing to complain about.

The room was spacious enough for 3 people,, the beds were quite comfortable the WiFi was good, the location great ,and .the staff amazingly friendly and sweet ! It's worth noting that they have kept for us a power adaptor, they have found it and stored it for us. We enjoyed dinner and tea at the café situated at a lovely terrace on the ground floor of the hotel! We're planning to go back at the end of our trip!

There was a faint smell of cigarette smoke in some rooms, which may bother more sensitive guests. Otherwise, everything was more than satisfactory, especially given the price point.

The location is superb - right in the heart of Thamel yet surprisingly quiet and peaceful. What truly stood out, however, was the exceptional hospitality. The staff were consistently courteous, attentive, and genuinely kind. They went out of their way to ensure I was comfortable, even offering to fetch medication when I was unwell. The on-site restaurant was convenient and very reasonably priced. As a solo traveler, I especially appreciated the sense of safety, respect for privacy, and the calm, welcoming atmosphere throughout my stay.

We had an amazing time in Nepal, also with our stay in Hotel Yala Peak Kathmandu! We spent around 3 days in Kathmandu before and after going on a trek, we loved staying here and totally recommend this place! The rooms are clean & comfy, great hot shower, the location is perfect in the middle of Thamel, also very nice hotel for the price! 😍 A short walk away from shops, cafes, and temples! We definitely will be back to this hotel for our next trip in Nepal! The hotel staff were super friendly and helpful! Thank you so much for the warm welcome! ❤️🇳🇵

Well-located, quiet place with a helpful staff and friendly ambience. Excellent food in the restaurant downstairs. There’s space to chill outside on each floor.

Walk upstairs to room 5th floor. But we are in Nepal! The internet was pretty sketchy. Might be ok for simple phone tasks but not for laptops. Staff were really good about it asking all the time, but at the end of the day they are let down by it.

Staff were seriously good. The location was good. It is good to have an on-site restaurant covering all the meals of the day and long opening hours, even for a coffee.

We were originally meant to stay at Yala peak for 2 nights, but found ourselves returning multiple times throughout our time in Nepal and spent the best part of a week here. It was by far our favourite accommodation during our journey through India and Nepal. Above all, the staff at Yala were delightful: incredibly helpful, kind and welcoming (thank you!!!). We stayed in three different rooms, all of which were very spacious and comfortable, with access to a balcony where we enjoyed room service dinner one evening. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all delicious and unrivalled by anywhere else we ate in Kathmandu. We left our luggage here whilst we went trekking and then again for a few nights in Bhaktapur, which was a lifesaver. The location is brilliant, in the heart of Thamel with a supermarket two doors down and a short walk to Durbar Square. Amazing value, 10/10. Thank you so much to everyone at Yala for making our stay such a highlight, we were very sad to leave!

Simple but well managed hotel with their own garden restaurant. Verandas on each floor where I often meet other travelers, mostly young trekking people but now and then older people with interesting stories. I always stay there when in Kathmandu because it's efficient and cosy. If you want a spotless high standard western hotel, chose a more expensive one.

No complaints

Amazing staff, so friendly and always happy to help. I had a room on the 4th floor so was nicely removed from the street noise below. I just had a basic room but it was spacious and had everything that I needed - double bed, desk, chairs, wardrobe, coathanger, fan, soap, etc. Amazing value for money and I hope to stay again when I come back through Kathmandu next.

We love yala peak! We stay every time we have come to Kathmandu, and they even remember our names! The staff are so lovely and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The location is good in Thamel, but also nicely tucked away so the roof terrace is away from the main roads. Yes the surroundings are noisy but it's probably as quiet as you could get in the middle of Kathmandu. The food in the restaurant is delicious and it's also a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend it to be your base in Kathmandu.
