Everytime I am in Kathmandu I return to this place. The rooms are comfy and have enough space. The restaurant and area outside is very nice to rest after the buzzing live outside. The staff is super friendly and help you with all you need. You can storw luggage for free even for a two week trek what we really loved.

From the moment I arrived at the reception, the staff welcomed me with huge smiles and helped me with my bags all the way to the room. The room was very spacious, clean, and located in a very quiet area while still being only a few minutes walk from all the noise and activity of the city center. There was also hot water available at all times without any issues. My very late check-out was welcomed as well, since the reception operates until late hours. Amazing value for the price.
