Lovely place to stay at Tamel. The staff were really friendly and helpful. They helped and answered all of our questions about the adapter and buying vegetables. The power was gone for a bit, but they tried to fix it immediately. Very nice team!

Shanti Apartment 2BHK(Thamel<5 min walk) 2nd Floor

ElinaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Hi everyone! Just wanted to leave a review about this place. The first thing worth mentioning is the location — the apartment is very close to the center of Thamel, just a 5-minute walk to all the cafes, restaurants, and spots with great European-style breakfasts. Secondly, the hosts are super friendly! On the first day, they showed me where to buy affordable fruits and vegetables and even recommended some local places with delicious food. Overall, they were always quick to help and respond to any requests I had (and I had quite a few, haha). It’s only a 10-minute walk to Durbar Square — everything is really close by. Highly recommend!

Avocado Tree Serviced Apartment in Kathmandu

AyshaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
So happy we decided to stay here with all the choices available! This family is absolutely wonderful, all of them and Madhu is an angel. Very peaceful area away from the craziness that is Thamel. But you can easily get a car there for walk if you want, which we did a few times. My toddler and I spent a month there and we had such a wonderful stay. We feel like we have a family in Kathmandu that we want to come visit. Loved the spaciousness of the space and the view from the roof is beautiful. The WiFi was soooo good honestly probably the best we had in all the places we traveled in Asia. It’s super duper clean and you can tell they keep it that way always. We just had such a great month and are so appreciative of this beautiful family and can’t wait to come back again! Thank you so much!!

Tahaja Guest Tower

LonnekeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a fantastic stay at the Tahaja Guest Tower! It was a great way to end a four week trip in Nepal. The Tower itself is so beautiful, with a very nice terrace to sit outside. Nice beds, great shower, coffee and tea. The whole property is beautiful, quiet, with a lot of green and flowers. And still just a 20 min walk to Bhaktapur. Puneshwari and Mohan make delicious breakfast and dinner, and are so helpfull. Contact with Lena was also very easy.

Entire House B&B

RabindraRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a truly wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The property was peaceful, spotless, and located in a beautiful and calm neighborhood. Everything was exactly as described in the listing. What really made our experience exceptional were the hosts, Jamuna and Aakash. They are incredibly friendly, warm, and went above and beyond to make our stay special. We rented the property for a wedding ceremony, and Jamuna and Aakash were extremely proactive in helping us organize a religious function and even assisted in arranging catering services. Their support was invaluable and made everything run smoothly. This was more than just a stay—it felt like we were being cared for by family. I wholeheartedly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful, clean, and welcoming place to stay. Jamuna and Aakash are truly.
