I go to Kathmandu twice a year and allways stay at Hotel Excelsior. Namaste to Kunsang and his team! they offer a free airport pick up in their nice new van! tHe hotel is basic, clean and excellently located right in the heart ot Thamel a stones throw from everything. Staff are enthusiastic, friendly and will help you with anything... More

Great location. Good value for money in Kathmandu. Nicer than it initially appears and the staff are really helpful with anything you need. Good food too. wifi and hot water most of the time, remember this is Nepal so pay more if you want faultless facilities (still not guaranteed to be fair), otherwise this is a great option. Stayed as... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in December and booked a room with a heater. The hotel was not great at first glance but it had adequate facilities though the bathroom was very basic. Hot water was inconsistent and wifi was very patchy (almost non-existent in the room) in the main building (which made me wonder whether I should have... More

I stay at Hotel Excelsior from Nov 24, 2012 till Nov 27, 2012. Location is excellent, right in the heart of Touristy Thamel. Rooms are basic, clean, though a little dated. Room was bright and well ventilatedI supposed most Kathmandu Hotels are. Service was good. Most staff were smiley and friendly. You do get one of two grumpy faces but... More

The Excelsior situated in the centre of Thamel Kathmandu (down an alley, so not easy to find). The staff were helpful and accommodating. As we had to leave early the next morning to catch a bus, they arranged breakfast for us early. They took our order the night before to ensure it was ready, and it was. They then arranged... More

We have stayed here a couple of times when the Kathmandu Guesthouse has been full or overbooked, rooms were arranged by the Guesthouse and the same price. We felt a little cheated that we didn't have the sanctuary of the Guesthouse garden but we discovered a beautiful room top garden with views across the city. On arrival the hotel has... More

Stayed at Hotel Excelsior for a week and must say that I had a good experience. Staff were very friendly, rooms clean and well serviced. Hot water everyday and no power cuts. Food was standard and good service. Nicely located in Thamel without being affected by all the noise. Would def recommend and stay there again.

Hi there, I stayed at Excelsior Hotel for a few times while I was working in Nepal. I totally loved it. You have choice of different room standards and prices. Food was very safe, tasty and well cooked. Momo and salads my favourite. Hotel in central location of Thamel but not really close to any of noisy clubs and pubs.... More

We stayed at Hotel Excelsior two different nights in April, at the beginning of our trip and again at the end. It is in Thamel but off a side street, so it isn't crazy noisy. The rooftop is lovely and underutilized but we had drinks up there. We had an early morning flight, so the staff took our breakfast order... More
