The location is excellent. The hotel is in a small quiet street not far from Thamel. The rooms have attached bathrooms with hot water. They were very clean. The sheets and the towles were certainly washed but old and full of spots. But the rooms are cheap and it's good value for price. There is free wifi as well. The... More

The location of Lai Lai is excellent, it's walking distance from Tamel the hard core tourist streets, but far enough to be quiet, tranquil and cean. Not many cars passing by, no insanity of tourist crowds. The rooms are spacious, airy and full of light. Depending on which room you take, you can have a pretty good view. We had... More

Recommended budget hotel. Not a high quality hotel (bathrooms are slightly poor and rooms are old), but surely a great price-quality ratio. Good location (Thamel area), staff friendly, wi-fi or computer on disposal.

I was in Kathmandu in september 2012, my room was dirty, the pillow smelled so much that kept me awake all night long. My friend found a big beatle in her bed...the hotel doesn't have free wi-fi. The hotel has a good position but you can find better hotels near there
