Staying at Kathmandu Guest House was a delight. Located in the middle of Thamel area, close to Durbar Square and most historic sites, it proved to be convenient to walk 15 minutes to most places of interest. Shopping was just outside the gate, although I found good semi-precious jewelry at one of the hotel stores. This guest house is not... More

We spent ten days at Kathmandu Guest House and would definitely come back there again. It was the best stay in Nepal that we had. The hotel is centrally located, in the heart of Thamel, in walking distance to Durbar Square and the shops of Thamel district. The best feature is its fantastic garden that makes the hustle and bustle... More

I booked a room in July, and discovered that the rooms WERE NOT AIR CONDITIONED. They had taken the full amount on my credit card on the same day as booking. I cancelled the room and I am still waiting for refund 7 days later.

Decided to go here for a nice meal and have to admit the food and the overall atmosphere were both very good. However, the staff here just seemed to push us, and everyone else, out the door!

Very nice hotel in the heart of Kathmandu. Next to Thamel shops and retaurants. Rooms were clean and very reasonably priced. However, full of westerners and it seems that Indian people are not always welcome and treated with friendship by some of the employees (when others were very good).
