We stayed at the Yuck and Yeti at the beginning and end of a trekking experience to EBC. Both times were disappointing and unsanitary. It has a nice garden behind it, which is the only thing that perhaps makes it a two star hotel. When staff comes to clean the outdated and non air conditioned rooms they do not wipe... More

I stayed in yak and Yeti for 4 nights. I had read a few negative comments about it - so was a little unsure. Most people complained about the Air conditioner not working and stuffs like that - since we were traveling in October-November, we didn't worry much about the air conditioner - it was quite cold. Overall, we had... More

Upon arrival, we were advised that the room we booked was not available so we were upgraded, with a possible further upgrade early evening. This was done, and we were give a business suite which was impressive considering we had paid for a room of much lesser quality. The desk staff were helpful, and obliging. The large garden by Kathmandu... More

I have stayed in KTM number of times and this time wanted to try Yak & Yeti, maybe also due to very convenient location. Booked deluxe room however was a bit shocked that they are not 5 star standard at all - not even close - on the other hand, when visiting places like Nepal, our expectations must reduce a... More

Yak and Yeti is a good avarage hotel, but need some renovation. The hotel stays at a good and easy place to reach some attractions of Kathamdu. The restaurant is ok, nothing special, breakfast is avarage. The outside area is pretty good, tennis court, swimming pool and nice garden. The worst part of the hotel is the front desk, they... More

City hotel with great service. Two very nice restaurants with a welcoming lobby bar. The breakfast buffet is a wonderful international presentation in a beautiful setting. It is Nepal, so lights go off but generators are very good.

Yes, the Yak & Yeti has deteriorated since 1996, but so has the whole of Kathmandu. It is still ok to stay there. Do not open windows higher up as the pigeons have taken over. Beware when using any plugs. . . . Some are almost falling out of the walls. When showering, do not let any water enter your... More
